python-qpid-proton示例，向azure发送消息不起作用

Question

I'm trying to use python-qpid-proton version 0.9.1 to send a message to a Azure Service Bus queue.

The examples in examples/python/messenger/ accept addresses of the form amqps://<user>:<password>@<server>/<queue name> , and I can successfully send messages to the queue I have on Azure with it. The problem with this is that I can't control much of what's going on, namely I can't really see if the sending failed. Eventually I want to persist the messages in case the internet connection goes down temporarily.

The example code examples/python/db_send.py and examples/python/simple_send.py seem to be more useful with this aspects, as they use the MessagingHandler instead of the Messenger class. But when I run them, I get this error:

./simple_send.py -a amqps://send:mxirestofmypassword@testsoton.servicebus.windows.net/queue2
Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: Not a valid port number or service name: 'mxitheresto'

Seems to me like it does not parse the address correctly. I pasted the same address as before. And I also pasted it into the python interpreter, like this:

>>> import proton
>>> u = proton.Url("amqps://send:mxirestofmypassword@testsoton.servicebus.windows.net/queue2")
>>> # no error, and I can access all the parameters:
>>> u.port
5671
>>> u.username
send
>>> # ...

It works fine if I use a local connection with no username and password. Gets past this point if I don't use any username and password but obviously does not work as it fails authentication.

Is there any way I can use the MessagingHandler class and specify username and password to send messages to a remote (like on Azure)?

I tried to run the qpid example "simple_send.py", I don't got any error. The example program can request the Azure Service Bus, but it can't establish the sender connection with AMQPS scheme.

According to MSDF offical document https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/jj841070.aspx , you can use the Messenger class to send messages to Azure Service Bus.

The simple completed sample code is as follows:

from proton import Messenger, Message

messenger = Messenger()
message = Message()
message.address = "amqps://<shared_access_policy_name>:<shared_access_policy_key>@pandaservibus.servicebus.windows.net/testqueue"

message.body = u"This is a text string"
messenger.put(message)
messenger.send()

You can get the shared access policy name & key at the tab "CONFIGURE" of Azure Service Bus Queue page.

Best Regards.

Sample code (Overcome unreliable internet connection):

from proton import Messenger, Message
from time import sleep

message = Message()
message.address = "amqps://<shared_access_policy_name>:<shared_access_policy_key>@pandaservibus.servicebus.windows.net/testqueue"
message.body = u"This is a text string"
print('start')
retry = True
print("Send Msg")
while retry:
    try:
        messenger = Messenger()
        messenger.put(message)
        messenger.send()
        retry = False
        print "Sent"
    except:
        print "Retry"
    sleep(2)
print "End"

If you want to check the singal of sent messages successfully, I suggest to use the Service Bus REST API. You can get the response status code 201 when send messages successfully. About Service Bus REST APIs, please refer to https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/hh780786.aspx and https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/dn170477.aspx .
