1、安装
在Mac下安装RabbitMQ是非常简单的，一般默认RabbitMQ服务器依赖的Erlang已经安装，只需要用下面两个命令就可以完成RabbitMQ的安装（前提是homebrew已经被安装）：
brew update brew install rabbitmq 安装完成后需要将/usr/local/sbin添加到$PATH，可以将下面这两行加到~/.bash_profile或者~/.profile： # RabbitMQ Config export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin 在Windows下安装稍微麻烦些，需要先安装ErLang，然后下载RabbitMQ可执行文件安装 2、启动RabbitMQ服务 上面配置完成后，需要关闭终端窗口，重新打开，然后输入下面命令即可启动RabbitMQ服务：
rabbitmq-server 可以在后面加-detatched选项参数表示以守护进程方式启动 3、命令行管理RabbitMQ RabbitMQ提供了rabbitmqctl和rabbitmqadmin命令行管理工具，它们都是RabbitMQ的插件，可以通过rabbitmq-plugins list查看所有插件信息。rabbitmqctl的完整命令列表如下：
stop [<pid_file>] stop_app start_app wait <pid_file> reset force_reset rotate_logs <suffix> join_cluster <clusternode> [--ram] cluster_status change_cluster_node_type disc | ram forget_cluster_node [--offline] update_cluster_nodes clusternode sync_queue queue cancel_sync_queue queue add_user <username> <password> delete_user <username> change_password <username> <newpassword> clear_password <username> set_user_tags <username> <tag> ... list_users add_vhost <vhostpath> delete_vhost <vhostpath> list_vhosts [<vhostinfoitem> ...] set_permissions [-p <vhostpath>] <user> <conf> <write> <read> clear_permissions [-p <vhostpath>] <username> list_permissions [-p <vhostpath>] list_user_permissions <username> set_parameter [-p <vhostpath>] <component_name> <name> <value> clear_parameter [-p <vhostpath>] <component_name> <key> list_parameters [-p <vhostpath>] set_policy [-p <vhostpath>] [--priority <priority>] [--apply-to <apply-to>] <name> <pattern> <definition> clear_policy [-p <vhostpath>] <name> list_policies [-p <vhostpath>] list_queues [-p <vhostpath>] [<queueinfoitem> ...] list_exchanges [-p <vhostpath>] [<exchangeinfoitem> ...] list_bindings [-p <vhostpath>] [<bindinginfoitem> ...] list_connections [<connectioninfoitem> ...] list_channels [<channelinfoitem> ...] list_consumers [-p <vhostpath>] status environment report eval <expr> close_connection <connectionpid> <explanation> trace_on [-p <vhost>] trace_off [-p <vhost>] set_vm_memory_high_watermark <fraction> start_app、stop_app分别是启动和停止RabbitMQ应用。其他的list_queues、list_exchanges等是显示RabbitMQ队列、RabbitMQ交换机信息。 rabbitmqadmin的完整命令列表如下（Mac下安装好了就带了这个命令，Windows下貌似还需要从http://server-name:15672/cli/下载，并可能需要通过rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq management启用这个插件）：

4、Web界面管理RabbitMQ
默认可以通过http://serverip:15672访问RabbitMQ的Web管理界面，默认用户名密码都是guest。（注意：RabbitMQ 3.0之前的版本默认端口是55672，下同）
5、RabbitMQ提供的HTTP API接口
RabbitMQ还提供了HTTP API接口，这样可以通过编程方式监控RabbitMQ的运行状态，HTTP API接口的地址为：http://serverip:15672/api/
