[rabbitmq-discuss] Interval exchange

[Alvaro Videla]

Hi,

Would be there any utility in an exchange that bind queues using intervals
as binding keys?

Something along the lines:

- ">=50" (All messages with routing key greater than 50"
- "5-90,95,100" (All messages with rkey from 5 up to 90; 95 and 100)

Or maybe the notation specified here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_(mathematics)

So then messages would be published with integers as routing keys and be
routed if they are inside an interval.

One use case I could see for this is implementing some sort of priorities
for message processing. Another could be a very simple load balancing of
messages.

Any thoughts?

Regards,

Alvaro
