RabbitMQ - Management HTTP API

One nice extra you get when installing the RabbitMQ management plugin is a corresponding HTTP api that allows you to do everything that is possible from the management portal through the API.

Remark: API documentation here: https://rawcdn.githack.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-management/v3.8.1/priv/www/api/index.html

There is only one thing I had to figure out…

You can query a specific vhost inside RabbitMQ by adding a vhost section inside the API. An example: /api/queues/vhost/name

The problem was I had to target the default vhost which was named “/” by default.

Trying to use that “/” inside the api didn’t work and resulted in an object not found error: /api/queues///name

The correct way was to add some URL encoding magic: /api/queues/%2F/name

When we took a look through Podman Desktop, we noticed that Podman had stopped running and returned the following error message: Error: Command execution failed with exit code 125 Here are the steps we tried to fix the issue: We started by running podman info to get some extra details on what could be wrong: >podman info OS: windows/amd64 provider: wsl version: 5.3.1 Cannot connect to Podman. Please verify your connection to the Linux system using `podman system connection list`, or try `podman machine init` and `podman machine start` to manage a new Linux VM Error: unable to connect to Podman socket: failed to connect: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:2655: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. That makes sense as the podman VM was not running. Let’s check the VM: >podman machine list NAME         ...

Cleaner switch expressions with pattern matching in C#

Ever find yourself mapping multiple string values to the same result? Being a C# developer for a long time, I sometimes forget that the C# has evolved so I still dare to chain case labels or reach for a dictionary. Of course with pattern matching this is no longer necessary. With pattern matching, you can express things inline, declaratively, and with zero repetition. A small example I was working on a small script that should invoke different actions depending on the environment. As our developers were using different variations for the same environment e.g.  "tst" alongside "test" , "prd" alongside "prod" .  We asked to streamline this a long time ago, but as these things happen, we still see variations in the wild. This brought me to the following code that is a perfect example for pattern matching: The or keyword here is a logical pattern combinator , not a boolean operator. It matches if either of the specified pattern...
