AWS SDK for Go code examples for Amazon SQS

Purpose

These examples demonstrate how to perform various Amazon SQS operations. For information about Amazon SQS, see the Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide.

Prerequisites

You must have an AWS account and have your default credentials and AWS Region configured as described in Configuring the AWS SDK for Go in the AWS SDK for Go Developer Guide.

Caveats

  • You should grant these code examples least privilege, or at most the minimum permissions required to perform the task. For more information, see Grant Least Privilege in the AWS Identity and Access Management User Guide.
  • This code has not been tested in all Regions. Some AWS services are available only in specific Regions.
  • Running the examples might result in charges to your AWS account.

About the unit tests

The unit tests should delete any resources that they create. However, they might result in charges to your AWS account.

To run a unit test, enter the following:

go test

You should see something like the following, where PATH is the path to folder containing the Go files.

PASS
ok      PATH 1.904s

If you want to see any log messages, enter:

go test -test.v

You should see some additional log messages. The last two lines should be similar to the previous shown output.

About the code examples

All of the code examples perform the operations in your default AWS Region and use your default credentials. See Configuring the AWS SDK for Go for details.

Each example is in its own directory, with a unit test. Each example can be run on the command line, and most require at least one command-line argument. To see the required command-line arguments, enter the following, where FILENAME is the name of the Go file.

go run FILENAME

The example displays an error message with information about the required command-line arguments.

ChangeMsgVisibilty

This directory contains an example of changing the visibility of a message, which prevents other consumers from processing the message. For information about message visibility, see Amazon SQS Visibility Timeout.

Use the following command to set the visibility of a message, where:

  • QUEUE is the name of the queue.
  • MESSAGE-HANDLE is the receipt handle of the message. Get that value by using the ReceiveMessages example.
  • VISIBILITY is how long, in seconds, the message is not available to other consumers. The example ensures that the value is between 0 and 43200 ( 12 hours). If omitted, it defaults to 30.

go run ChangeMsgVisibility.go -q QUEUE -h MESSAGE-HANDLE [-v VISIBILITY]

The unit test accepts the following configuration values in config.json and stores them in a struct:

  • Queue is the name of the queue. The default is an empty string.
  • Visibility is how long, in seconds, the message is not available to other consumers. The default is 30.
  • WaitTime is the wait time, in seconds, the queue waits for the message to arrive. The default is 10.

The unit test:

  1. Gets the values from config.json and stores them in a struct, ensuring that the Visibility value is between 0 and 43200 (12 hours) and the WaitTime value is between 0 (no long polling) and 20.
  2. If the value of Queue is an empty string, it creates a queue with a random name starting with myqueue-.
  3. If the value of WaitTime is greater than 0, it configures the queue for long polling with that value.
  4. Sends a message to the queue.
  5. Retrieves the message from the queue.
  6. Sets the message visibility to the value of Visibility.
  7. Deletes the message.
  8. If it created the queue, it deletes the queue.
ConfigureLPQueue

This directory contains an example of configuring a queue to use long polling, where the queue waits for a message to arrive. For information about long polling, see Amazon SQS Short and Long Polling.

Use the following command to set the long polling value for a queue, where:

  • QUEUE is the name of the queue.
  • WAIT-TIME is how long, in seconds, the queue waits for messages. The example ensures that the value is between 1 and 20. If omitted, it defaults to 10.

  1. Gets the values from config.json and stores them in a struct, ensuring that the WaitTime value is between 1 and 20.
  2. If the value of Queue is an empty string, it creates a queue with a random name starting with mylpqueue-.
  3. Configures the queue for long polling with the value of WaitTime.
  4. If it created the queue, it deletes the queue.

  3. If the value of DLQueue is an empty string, it creates a dead-letter queue with a name beginning with mydlqueue-.
  4. Configures the dead-letter queue to receive undelivered messages from the queue.
  5. If it created the queue, it deletes the queue.

ListQueues

This directory contains an example of listing queues.

Use the following command to list your queues.

go run ListQueues.go

The unit test accepts the following configuration values in config.json and stores them in a struct:

  • Confirm specifies whether to create a new queue and see if it shows up in the list of queues. The default is false.
  • SleepSeconds specifies how long, in seconds, to wait after creating a queue and listing it. the default is 60.

NOTE: If you set Confirm to true, the unit test sleeps SleepSeconds before listing the queues, which adds a considerable amount of time to running the unit test.

The unit test:

  1. Gets the values from config.json and stores them in a struct, ensuring that the SleepSeconds value is between 0 and 60.
  2. If Confirm is true, it sleeps Confirm seconds after creating the queue and before listing the queues. In addition, it displays a message when it finds the created queue in the list. If Confirm is false, it won't likely find the created queue in the list.
