RabbitMQ

Valet+ facilitates installing RabbitMQ with the following command.

Disable RabbitMQ with the following command.

valet-plus rabbitmq off

After installation you can find configuration files at the following location.

/usr/local/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf

You don't need to change any configuration, this is optional. If you don't, you can reach RabbitMQ's interface at http://localhost:15672/ with default username guest and password guest.

You don't require Valet+ to run RabbitMQ. You can install it yourself too with the following command (at time of writing).

brew install rabbitmq
