Working with Message Stores via Tooling

You can create a new message store or import an existing message store from the file system using WSO2 EI tooling. 

Creating a message store

Follow these steps to create a new message store. Alternatively, you can import an existing message store.

1. In Eclipse, click the Developer Studio menu and then click Open Dashboard. This opens the Developer Studio Dashboard.
2. Click Message Store on the Developer Studio Dashboard. The New Message Store Artifact window will open as shown below.
   
3. Leave the first option (Create a new message-store artifact) selected as shown above, and click Next to start adding the required parameters.
4. Type a unique name for the message store, and specify the type of store you want to create by selecting a value from the list as shown below.
   

5. Now, start adding the parameters relevant to the selected message store.

   Note

   The parameters that you need to specify can vary depending on the type of message store that you want to use. For more information on each message store and for descriptions of the parameters you need to specify, see the relevant topic from the following:

   • JMS Message Store
   • In Memory Message Store
   • Custom Message Store

   • RabbitMQ Message Store

   • JDBC Message Store
   • WSO2 MB Message Store
6. Do one of the following:
   
   • To save the message store in an existing EI Config project in your workspace, click Browse and select that project.
   • To save the message store in a new EI Config project, click Create a new EI Project and create the new project.
7. Click Finish. The message store is created in the src/main/synapse-config/message-stores folder under the EI Config project you specified and appears in the editor. You can click its icon in the editor to view its properties.

Importing a message store

Follow these steps to import an existing message store into an EI Config project. Alternatively, you can create a new message store.

1. In Eclipse, click the Developer Studio menu and then click Open Dashboard. This opens the Developer Studio Dashboard.
2. Click Message Store on the Developer Studio Dashboard.
3. Select Import a Message Store and click Next.
4. Specify the XML file that defines the message store by typing its full path name or clicking Browse and navigating to the file.
5. In the Save In field, specify an existing EI Config project in your workspace where you want to save the message store, or click Create new Project to create a new EI Config project and save the message store configuration there.
6. Click Finish. The message store is created in the src/main/synapse-config/message-stores folder under the EI Config project you specified and appears in the editor.
