What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-29, confidence not recorded

A Go client library implementing the AMQP 0.9.1 protocol, primarily targeting RabbitMQ as the message broker server. It is explicitly unmaintained since 2022, with rabbitmq/amqp091-go recommended as its successor.

Use cases

  • connect to RabbitMQ from a Go application
  • publish and consume AMQP 0.9.1 messages in Go
  • declare queues and exchanges over AMQP
  • build a producer/consumer pipeline with RabbitMQ
  • integrate message queuing into a Go microservice

When to choose

  • maintaining legacy Go code already importing this package
  • you need a frozen, API-stable AMQP 0.9.1 client with no changes
  • reading or auditing existing production systems built on it

When to avoid

  • starting a new Go project - use rabbitmq/amqp091-go instead
  • you need auto-reconnect or topology re-synchronization
  • you need AMQP 1.0 or protocol negotiation
  • you need authentication mechanisms beyond PLAIN and EXTERNAL
  • you expect active maintenance, bug fixes, or security updates
