Install RabbitMQ on RedHat 6.6

If docker is available on the machine then rabbit can be setup via : 

docker run -d -p 5672:5672 -p 15672:15672 -p 15674:15674 -e RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_VHOST=admin -e RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_USER=admin -e RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_PASS=admin --hostname rab1 --name rab1con -e RABBITMQ_ERLANG_COOKIE='secret cookie here' rabbitmq:3-management

# Open url http://localhost:15672 (create user and virtual-host using UI)

Else if docker is not available then the setup is as follows: 

# Install Erlang Latest Lightweight

# Install socat if needed
cd /etc/yum.repos.d
sudo wget --no-cache http://www.convirture.com/repos/definitions/rhel/6.x/convirt.repo
sudo  yum install socat

wget https://www.rabbitmq.com/releases/rabbitmq-server/v3.6.5/rabbitmq-server-3.6.5-1.noarch.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh rabbitmq-server-3.6.5-1.noarch.rpm

# This will enable the Web GUI
sudo rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management

# Add the hostname as the node node
sudo nano /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf 
NODENAME=hostname

# Run babbitmq in the backgroun
sudo rabbitmq-server start -detached

sudo rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_web_stomp

# Set up the admin user

sudo rabbitmqctl set_user_tags admin administrator


# Adding Virtual Hosts + Setting Permissions

sudo rabbitmqctl add_vhost admin
sudo rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p /admin admin ".*" ".*" "."
sudo rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p / admin ".*" ".*" "."
sudo rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p admin admin ".*" ".*" "."
sudo rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p  admin ".*" ".*" "."

# Allowing the admin user to access rabbit outside localhost - will require a restart
sudo nano /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.config
Paste in :
[{rabbit, [{loopback_users, [admin]}]}].
