You install the plug-in in your RabbitMQ server
plugins directory and enable it. The location of
the plugins directory depends on your platform and
how you installed RabbitMQ.
Copy the file
plugin/rjms-topic-selector- from the
RabbitMQ for JMS Client distribution into the
version.ezplugins directory of your RabbitMQ server
installation. For example, if you installed RabbitMQ from an RPM,
enter this command in the directory where you extracted the distribution:
$ cp plugin/rjms-topic-selector-1.0.0.ez /opt/vmware/rabbitmq/lib/rabbitmq_server-1.0/plugins
Enable the plug-in using the rabbitmq-plugins command:
$ rabbitmq-plugins enable rjms-topic-selector
Restart the RabbitMQ server to activate the plug-in.
Refer to Plug-ins
for assistance with the rabbitmq-plugins command.
