Send MessageProperties [priority=anyInteger] while publishing message in RabbitMQ - rabbitmq

Question

we are using rabbit MQ and Spring Integration in our project. Every Message has a deliver mode, header, properties, and payload part.
We want to add properties i.e) priority with value 2(any integer) , payload with "test message 3" and publish the message to the queue named OES. please see screen shot.
How to add the messageproperties i.e) priority =2(or any value) in the below outbound-channel-adapter(Spring Integration). I know we can add "headers" by adding into "mapped-request-headers" but i would like to add the properties. There are no properties defined for the MessageProperties in "outbound-channel-adapter". Is there a way to overcome this issue.
We have no issues with payload, it is going already. we want to add only the MessageProperties with priority=2(any value). how to add that in the outbound-channel-adapter(no need of hardcoding, should be generic)?
<!-- the mapped-request-headers should be symmetric with
the list on the consumer side defined in consumerbeans.consumerHeaderMapper() -->
<int-amqp:outbound-channel-adapter id="publishingAmqpAdapter"
channel="producer-processed-event-channel"
amqp-template="amqpPublishingTemplate"
exchange-name="events_forwarding_exchange"
routing-key-expression="headers['routing-path']"
mapped-request-headers="X-CallerIdentity,routing-path,content-type,route_to*,event-type,compression-state,STANDARD_REQUEST_HEADERS"
/>
Other configuration:
<!-- chain routes and transforms the ApplicationEvent into a json string -->
<int:chain id="routingAndTransforming"
input-channel="producer-inbound-event-channel"
output-channel="producer-routed-event-channel">
<int:transformer ref="outboundMessageTracker"/>
<int:transformer ref="messagePropertiesTransformer"/>
<int:transformer ref="eventRouter"/>
<int:transformer ref="eventToJsonTransformer"/>
</int:chain>
<int:transformer id="messagePayloadCompressor"
input-channel="compress-message-payload"
output-channel="producer-processed-event-channel"
ref="payloadCompressor"/>
#Configuration("amqpProducerBeans")
#ImportResource(value = "classpath:com/apple/store/platform/events/si/event-producer-flow.xml")
public class AmqpProducerBeans {
#Bean(name = { "amqpPublishingTemplate" })
public AmqpTemplate amqpTemplate() {
logger.debug("creating amqp publishing template");
RabbitTemplate rabbitTemplate = new RabbitTemplate(producerConnectionFactory());
SimpleMessageConverter converter = new SimpleMessageConverter();
// following needed for retry logic
converter.setCreateMessageIds(true);
rabbitTemplate.setMessageConverter(converter);
return rabbitTemplate;
}
/*Other code commented */
}
Other Code:
import org.springframework.integration.Message;
import org.springframework.integration.annotation.Transformer;
import org.springframework.integration.message.GenericMessage;
public class PayloadCompressor {
#Transformer
public Message<byte[]> compress(Message<String> message){
/* some code commented */
Map<String, Object> headers = new HashMap<String, Object>();
headers.putAll(message.getHeaders());
headers.remove("compression-state");
headers.put("compression-state", CompressionState.COMPRESSED);
Message<byte[]> compressedMessage = new GenericMessage<byte[]>(compressedPayload, headers);
return compressedMessage;
}
If we are not using spring integration, then we can use channel.basicPublish below way and send the MessageProperties.
ConnectionFactory factory = new ConnectionFactory();
factory.setVirtualHost("/");
factory.setHost("10.102.175.30");
factory.setUsername("rahul");
factory.setPassword("rahul");
factory.setPort(5672);
Connection connection = factory.newConnection();
System.out.println("got connection "+connection);
Channel channel = connection.createChannel();
MessageProperties msgproperties= new MessageProperties() ;
MessageProperties.BASIC.setPriority(3);
// set Messageproperties with priority
    String exchangeName = "HeaderExchange";
      String routingKey = "testkey";
      //routingkey
      byte[] messageBodyBytes = "Message having priority value 3".getBytes();
      channel.basicPublish(exchangeName,
                           routingKey,
                           true,
                           msgproperties.BASIC,
                           messageBodyBytes);
Please let me know if you need more details.

Answer 1

Properties are already mapped automatically - see the header mapper.
Simply use a <header-enricher/> to set the appropriate header and it will be mapped to the correct property. In the case of priority, the constant is here for the amqp-specific header constants, see here.
