Declare queue without consuming messages #142

Closed danikk741 closed 4 months ago

danikk741 commented 8 months ago

Hello. Thank you for your work. I tried to declare a queue with "x-dead-letter-exchange" argument to my main exchange. The problem is that I need to pass Handler for consumer but I do not want messages to be consumed. Messages must be handled automatically by TTL and "x-dead-letter-exchange" option.

Basically, I just need to declare exchanges, queue and bindings without handling messages from queue. What do you think about making Handler argument optional or making Declare functions public?

You might want to just use the base AMQP library for this. Alternatively you can just pass a NO-OP handler

I'm not sure that's really a solution tbf. What if I want to just publish stuff to a lazy DLX queue indefinitely without necessarily consuming anything? This is currently not possible with a "no-op" consumer, or at least, it is not without closing the consumer right after declaring the queue
