How to delete a RabbitMQ exchange?

Question

This seems like a very basic operation but I cannot find a way to delete a named exchange in RabbitMQ. I'm running it on Windows and using the command line tools. At this point I would settle for a .NET API call to delete an exchange, if there exists one. Thank you.

Answer 1

Management plugin is fine, if you don't need to do it programmatically (but your question indicates otherwise).

There is a command in the .NET API to delete the exchange. It's IModel.ExchangeDelete - which is also clearly called out in the API Specification .

Answer 2

Figured it out. Just use the Rabbit MQ Management Plugin .
