RabbitMQ version exposed in STOMP header - rabbitmq

I use rabbitmq with the stomp plugin and in the stomp header of the CONNECTED message this 'server': 'RabbitMQ/3.6.5' appears.
Is the there a configuration options to avoid that this information is exposed in the header ?
Thanks !

There is exist option: rabbitmq_stomp.hide_server_info

RabbitMQ Cluster operator - enabling MQTT plugin

While using https://github.com/rabbitmq/cluster-operator I have a working setup with TLS enabled for AMQP. Now I would need to enable MQTT, however I donot find any example of enabling plugins with this operator.
Can someone help with an example of enabling MQTT over RabbitMQ via the cluster operator?
As mentioned in Rabbit MQ Documentation, in order to enable mqtt plugin, we have to add the corresponding plugin name "rabbitmq_mqtt".

ActiveMQ: Transforming OpenWire and STOMP messages

EDIT2: My issue here was caused by an insufficient understanding of how transport connectors work in ActiveMQ. TL;DR is that ActiveMQ will implicitly "transform" or "relay" messages between your transport connector configurations defined in activemq.xml.
EDIT: Additional info, the STOMP messages received by the Angular application are used for debugging and demo purposes. Hence, simply converting the OpenWire message to a blob of readable text is sufficient.
I'm creating an Angular application (preferably website, avoiding native applications), which objective is to "tap in" by web sockets on an ActiveMQ server and subscribe to OpenWire messages. How do I let ActiveMQ transform OpenWire messages to STOMP messages and send these to any clients (i.e. my Angular application) connected to the ActiveMQ WebSocket connector?
In addtiion, it would be nice-to-have if I could transform STOMP to OpenWire as well.
It must be Angular
Avoiding the use of native applications on the client-side is preferable although not a deal-breaker.
Adding extra processing stress on the ActiveMQ server must be done with caution.
To the best of my knowledge, it is only possible to let Angular "talk directly" with the ActiveMQ server by STOMP messages send by web socket, if I am to avoid using native applications.
I already have an Angular application capable of STOMP communication by web sockets (e.g. something like https://github.com/stomp-js/ng2-stompjs-angular7).
I am missing information on how to configure the ActiveMQ server to transform OpenWire-->STOMP through its transport connectors.
In my understanding, what I am trying to do should be possible. It is noted by other users but not how. E.g. users hint that what I want is possible in ActiveMQ but not Apollo: ActiveMQ to Apollo transition, Openwire to Stomp protocol configuration.
I expect (preferably) the need to use something like an ActiveMQ transformer (e.g. adding transformer to the connector configuration: AMQP & Openwire - Activemq broker and 2 different consumers) or maybe writing an ActiveMQ plugin (http://activemq.apache.org/developing-plugins.html). On ActiveMQ's website, an existing transformer is mentioned (http://activemq.apache.org/stomp.html Message Transformations section):
Currently, ActiveMQ comes with a transformer that can transform XML/JSON text to Java objects
... but no mention of how to use this and I am unsure if I can benefit from this and if this means that there are no transformers for OpenWire-->STOMP or vice versa.
I expect I might have misunderstood some of the concepts, and a "you're going in a wrong direction, do this instead" can work out as a good answer for me. At the time of writing, I expect I will have to create an ActiveMQ plugin using their Message Transformer interface (http://activemq.apache.org/message-transformation.html) although their sub links are 404. I hope to achieve a more simple solution, e.g. an existing OpenWire-->STOMP transformer:
<transportConnector name="openwire" uri="{some-openwire-uri}?transport.transformer=stomp"/>
ActiveMQ will "transform" any Openwire message into a STOMP message and vice versa as needed based on client connections. I an Openwire based JMS client connects and places a message onto a queue and a STOMP based client comes along and subscribes to that queue the message will be converted into a STOMP message to send to that client.
Without knowing more about what issue you are having it is hard to provide more insight than that though. There are some cases where the transformation from Openwire to STOMP might not yield exactly the right thing for you such as a MapMessage or StreamMessage and definitely an ObjectMessage so some care needs to be taken about cross protocol messaging.
You do of course need to add a transport connector for each of the protocols you want to support, Openwire, STOMP, AMQP etc. The clients need something to connect to, then once they connect the broker manages the message transformations amongst subscriptions on Topics and Queues.

How to modify spring-websocket to interface with broker via MQTT instead of STOMP?

I'm building a spring-websocket application that currently uses RabbitMQ as a message broker via the STOMP protocol. The rest of our organization mostly uses IBM Websphere MQ as a message broker, so we'd like to convert it away from RabbitMQ. However Websphere MQ doesn't support the STOMP protocol, which is spring-websocket's default. MQTT seems like the easiest supported protocol to use instead. Ideally our front-end web clients will continue to use STOMP, but I'm also OK with migrating them to MQTT if needed.
What classes do I need to overwrite to make spring-websocket interface with the broker via MQTT instead of STOMP? This article provides some general guidance that I should extend AbstractMessageBrokerConfiguration, but I'm unclear where to begin.
Currently I'm using the standard configuration methods: registry.enableStompBrokerRelay and registerStompEndpoints in AbstractWebSocketMessageBrokerConfigurer
Ryan has some good pointers.
The main work is going to be creating a replacement for StompBrokerRelayMessageHandler with an MqttBrokerMessageHandler that not only talks to an MQTT broker but also adapts client STOMP frames to MQTT and vice versa. The protocols are similar enough that it may be possible to find common ground but you won't know until you try.
Note that we did have plans for for MQTT support https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-12581 but the key issue was that SockJS which is required over the Web for fallback support does not support binary messages.
Here's my stab at this after reviewing the spring-websocket source code:
Change WebSocketConfig:
Remove #EnableWebSocketMessageBroker
Add new annotation: #EnableMqttWebSocketMessageBroker
Create MqttBrokerMessageHandler that extends AbstractBrokerMessageHandler -- suggest we copy and edit StompBrokerRelayMessageHandler
Create a new class that EnableMqttWebSocketMessageBroker imports: DelegatingMqttWebSocketMessageBrokerConfiguration
DelegatingMqttWebSocketMessageBrokerConfiguration extends AbstractMessageBrokerConfiguration directly and routes to MqttBrokerMessageHandler
Add this to server.xml on WebSphere Liberty:
<feature>websocket-1.1</feature>

Spring+RabbitMQ make queues non durable

I am using RabbitMQ as a Stomp broker for Spring Websocket application. The client uses SockJS library to connect to the websocket interface.
Every queue created on the RabbitMQ by the Spring is durable while topics are non durable. Is there any way to make the queues non durable as well?
I do not think I can configure on the application side. I played a bit with RabbitMQ configuration but could not set it up either.
Example destination on RabbitMQ used for SUBSCRIBE and SEND:
services-user-_385b304f-7a8f-4cf4-a0f1-d6ceed6b8c92
It will be possible to specify properties for endpoints as of RabbitMQ 3.6.0 according to comment in RabbitMQ issues - https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-stomp/issues/24#issuecomment-137896165:
as of 3.6.0, it will be possible to explicitly define properties for endpoints such as /topic/ and /queue using subscription headers: durable, auto-delete, and exclusive, respectively.
As a workaround you can try to create queues by your own using AMQP protocol and then refer to that queues from STOMP protocol.

which queue exchange are using in RabbitMQ Web STOMP plugin

I am not sure but this are rabbitmq stomp plugin exchange are used /temp-queue, /exchange, /topic, /queue, /amq/queue, /reply-queue/ . can you please explain the use of these each exchange.
RabbitMQ docs about STOMP document these.
See our docs: https://www.rabbitmq.com/stomp.html#d
