Hi Lionel,<div><br></div><div>I've used this script to monitor the number of messages in a queue in nagios just last week:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://bitkickers.blogspot.com.au/2011/07/checking-rabbitmq-queue-sizeage-with.html">http://bitkickers.blogspot.com.au/2011/07/checking-rabbitmq-queue-sizeage-with.html</a></div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I'm trying to find a simple way to monitor RabbitMQ usage in terms of number<br>
of messages received and sent. I've looked on [1] at the REST API, the<br>
Nagios Plugin, Alice and the SNMP plugin (which does not seem to exist<br>
anymore on GitHub [2]) and none of these expose this information.<br>
<br>
Would it be possible to extend the REST API to expose counters representing<br>
the total number of messages received and sent so that this could be fed<br>
into Nagios or Graphite?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
