How to use with an external broker like ActiveMQ

[ganeshkantu]

I have been successfully using this plugin with the embedded broker. Now want to migrate to a more distributed structure - very confused as to how I would setup using an ActiveMQ broker. Any pointers?

spring docs:

• https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/4.3.14.RELEASE/spring-framework-reference/html/websocket.html#websocket-stomp-handle-broker-relay
• https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/4.3.14.RELEASE/spring-framework-reference/html/websocket.html#websocket-stomp-handle-broker-relay-configure

activemq stomp transport: http://activemq.apache.org/stomp.html

You may also need to configure additional STOMP broker relay properties such as relayHost, relayPort, systemLogin, systemPassword, depending on your message broker. The default settings should work for RabbitMQ and ActiveMQ.
