Bunny is a mature, feature-complete Ruby client library for RabbitMQ implementing the AMQP 0-9-1 protocol. It lets Ruby applications publish and consume messages with no heavyweight dependencies.
Use cases
- publish and consume messages from RabbitMQ in Ruby
- build work queues between Ruby services
- route events from a web app to other backend services
- aggregate events and metrics from multiple applications
- distribute real-time updates to web applications
- fan out price or market data updates to subscribers
- delegate indexing or processing jobs to worker applications
When to choose
- your Ruby or TruffleRuby app needs to talk to RabbitMQ over AMQP 0-9-1
- you want a mature, well-maintained client with a friendly API
- you need support for recent RabbitMQ features and TLS 1.3
When to avoid
- you are on JRuby (use March Hare instead)
- you need AMQP 1.0 or a different broker like Kafka
- you want a language-agnostic client outside the Ruby ecosystem
