Paul Smith created AMQ-5478:
-------------------------------
Summary: REST endpoint creates topic instead of queue
Key: AMQ-5478
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-5478
Project: ActiveMQ
Issue Type: Bug
Components: webconsole
Affects Versions: 5.10.0
Reporter: Paul Smith
Priority: Minor
This is _possibly_ simply a Documentation bug, but I was testing the REST
endpoints via the documentation here:
http://activemq.apache.org/rest.html
When I first tried to post a simple message to a queue (and this queue didn't
exist yet) I used this script:
{noformat}
$ curl -d "body=message" -XPOST
http://admin:admin@localhost:8161/api/message/queue/orders/input
{noformat}
The above is mostly based on the documentation. I was surprised to find no
queue created by looking at the web console, but i _*did*_ see a Topic created
called 'queue.orders.input' and it contained 1 message (odd because there's no
consumers defined).
After deleting the topic I then tried the 'other format' of the URL:
{noformat}
curl -d "body=message" -XPOST
http://admin:admin@localhost:8161/api/message/orders.input?type=queue
{noformat}
This does create a Queue of name 'orders.input' as one would expect.
I'm not exactly clear then from the documentation where in the URL one is
defining it as a queue using the former syntax. The URL in the documentation
sort of _implies_ that the 'queue' prefix of the URL is creating a queue named
'orders.input' but it doesn't turn out that way.
So either this is a bug, or the documentation needs tweaking.
