Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Users currently have access to computing nodes (Ubuntu, ASG) and database/cache nodes (Postgres, Mongo, Redis). But, there is no message broker node. This makes it impossible to design or simulate asynchronous architectures, message queues, and pub-sub systems visually on the canvas.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to add a new RabbitMQ message broker node type, which will back onto the official rabbitmq:3-management Docker image.
Key details of the implementation:
- I'll introduce a standard
'rabbitmq' node type in ContainerManager which will pull the rabbitmq:3-management image on container startup.
- I'll map container port
15672 (HTTP management UI) to a dynamic public port on the host machine.
- I'll add a customized RabbitMQ inspect modal which will displau the active container status, default login credentials (
guest / guest), and a direct link to open the Management Console in the browser. It should also include a cheat sheet of common exchanges/queues patterns and commands.
- Then I'll finally register the node under a new "Message Brokers" category inside the Node Library (using an appropriate icon from
lucide-react).
Describe alternatives you've considered
- Memcached / ActiveMQ / Kafka: RabbitMQ is preferred as the initial broker because it is lightweight, extremely common in system design interviews, and comes with a beautiful, pre-installed web administration dashboard (
rabbitmq:3-management) that runs perfectly in local-first Docker environments.
Additional context
This starts the implementation of the Message Brokers roadmap item listed under "Coming Very Soon" in the project README.
