We're trying to consume Azure Service Bus in a Node application. Our requirement is to fetch multiple messages from a queue.
Since Azure SDK for Node doesn't support batch retrieval, we decided to use AMQP. While we're able to fetch messages using Peek Messages as described here (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/service-bus-messaging/service-bus-amqp-request-response#message-operations).
What we are noticing is that as soon as messages are fetched, they are getting removed from the queue. I am wondering if anyone has an insight into how we can fetch messages in "PeekLock" mode using AMQP and Node. For AMQP, we're using amqp10 node package (https://www.npmjs.com/package/amqp10).
Here's our code for peeking at the messages:
const AMQPClient = require('amqp10/lib').Client,
Policy = require('amqp10/lib').Policy;
const protocol = 'amqps';
const keyName = 'RootManageSharedAccessKey';
const sasKey = 'My Shared Access Key'
const serviceBusHost = 'account-name.servicebus.windows.net';
const uri = protocol + '://' + encodeURIComponent(keyName) + ':' + encodeURIComponent(sasKey) + '@' + serviceBusHost;
const queueName = 'test1';
var client = new AMQPClient(Policy.ServiceBusQueue);
client.connect(uri)
.then(function () {
return Promise.all([
client.createReceiver(queueName),
client.createSender(queueName)
]);
})
.spread(function(receiver, sender) {
console.log(receiver);
console.log(sender);
console.log('--------------------------------------------------------------------------');
receiver.on('errorReceived', function(err) {
// check for errors
console.log(err);
});
receiver.on('message', function(message) {
console.log('Received message');
console.log(message);
console.log('------------------------------------');
});
return sender.send([], {
operation: 'com.microsoft:peek-message',
'message-count': 5
});
})
.error(function (e) {
console.warn('connection error: ', e);
});
