{"comment":{"created_at":"2011-10-13T00:20:41Z","body":"It seems like the use of this method, for instance to provide monitoring of throughput, would result in doubling the number of messages passing through a software system - one message to express some business intent, and one message to signify a message went out. \r\n\r\nIs there no way to simply poll a queue every n seconds to determine the amount of messages on the queue at that time? The RabbitMQ web management console does this. Does node-amqp not support it?\r\n\r\nThanks,\r\n\r\nMatt Walters","updated_at":"2011-10-13T00:20:41Z","url":"https://api.github.com/repos/postwait/node-amqp/issues/comments/2389907","id":2389907,"user":{"avatar_url":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/3eeb8e0376c934596bd8a538de180f68?d=https://a248.e.akamai.net/assets.github.com%2Fimages%2Fgravatars%2Fgravatar-140.png","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Matt4447","id":554847,"login":"Matt4447"}},"action":"created","issue":{"number":27,"created_at":"2011-09-13T07:56:46Z","pull_request":{"diff_url":null,"patch_url":null,"html_url":null},"body":"Is there any way to find out how many messages there are in a queue?","comments":3,"title":"Number of messages in queue?","updated_at":"2011-10-13T00:20:42Z","url":"https://api.github.com/repos/postwait/node-amqp/issues/27","id":1631083,"assignee":null,"milestone":null,"closed_at":null,"user":{"avatar_url":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/b33adc706ae602b02316e07fb415fc61?d=https://a248.e.akamai.net/assets.github.com%2Fimages%2Fgravatars%2Fgravatar-140.png","url":"https://api.github.com/users/ashwinphatak","id":14833,"login":"ashwinphatak"},"html_url":"https://github.com/postwait/node-amqp/issues/27","labels":[],"state":"open"},"legacy":{"issue_id":1631083,"comment_id":2389907}}
