Input reads from MQ, Output sends to MQ?

[TinajaLabs]

When I drag an input ampq node into a tab, I assumed that I was dragging a component on the input of RabbitMQ. But when I open the node to configure it, I see a field into which I am asked to enter what queue I am reading from. To me, "reading from" implies an output.

I think of a message queue as having an input and an output. The input listens to an external source and the output delivers or is consumed by an external source.

Your input module reads from a queue, and your output module sends to a queue.

Please help me understand the logic and directionality of your input and output modules.

Thanks,
Chris.

Hi, I just tried to use amqp2 to deal with rabbitmq messages. But I failed. And I know why an input node has both input and output field. You can use the input field of an input node to subscribe to a specified queue. "readFrom" defines the queue name you want to subscribe to. And when messages have been published to the queue, you can use the output field to get the messages.
