Summary: Artemis console shoud show the message (protocol) type
Key: ARTEMIS-3556

Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Web Console
Affects Versions: 2.20.0
Reporter: Erwin Dondorp

When browsing messages in the Artemis Console, the page does not show the
message protocol type. Expert users could derive that information from the
available message keys, but there is no formal indication of the message
protocol type.
Note that the message protocol type should not be confused with the message
payload type.
message protocol type is e.g.: CORE, AMQP, etc.
message payload type is e.g.: Text, Map, Stream, etc.
I have prepared a PR that shows the message protocol type in the "Headers"
table when viewing message details. The new field is "messageType". due to the
list being alphabetic, it will show up just below "messageID".
I kept it simple. Instead of providing a descriptive text for each message
type, I've simply used the (short) java class name.
question: should the field "type" be renamed to "payloadType" to prevent any
confusion? I updated the descriptive text for "type" to better describe it.
The following class diagram shows which message types may be shown:
