A Go library that wraps the rabbitmq/amqp091-go client with a higher-level, RabbitMQ-focused API. It adds automatic reconnection, flow control and TCP block handling, multithreaded consumer handlers, and sane defaults for publishing and consuming.

Use cases

• connect to rabbitmq from a go application
• rabbitmq client with automatic reconnection in golang
• consume rabbitmq messages concurrently in go
• publish messages to a rabbitmq exchange in golang
• simpler wrapper around amqp091-go
• handle rabbitmq connection drops gracefully in go

When to choose

• You want an easier, higher-level RabbitMQ API in Go than the raw AMQP protocol library
• You need automatic reconnection, flow control, and multithreaded consumer handling out of the box
• You are specifically working with RabbitMQ rather than generic AMQP brokers

When to avoid

• You need full low-level control over every AMQP protocol feature; use amqp091-go directly
• You use a message broker other than RabbitMQ, since the wrapper is RabbitMQ-specific
• You need a cross-language client or a non-Go environment
