Ask HN: What message queue software has a native HTTP receiver?
RabbitMQ has one, but it's actually a management interface and I really don't want to expose it to the whole world.
X/Y problem: I need to send data from clients without custom protocols (so no libs bundled) over a plain HTTP/S (so it can traverse firewall in 99.9%) to the public endpoint.
I don't really care about the most features of the message queues, but I definitely don't want to write one.
I had a successful deployment on a very similar task with RabbitMQ, but it was fully internal and had no security requirements.
- sudhirj 3y agoIf you're up for AWS then the SNS-SQS combo works great. If you're not into giving short term credentials to clients then a lambda (with HTTP invocation) should work fine. For bare servers maybe NATS? Think it had HTTP/S support.
