11.2. Address String Options Reference
Table 11.2.
| Option | Value | Semantics |
|---|---|---|
assert
|
one of:
always, never, sender or receiver
|
Asserts that the properties specified in the node option match whatever the address resolves to. If they do not, resolution fails and an exception is raised.
|
create
|
one of:
always, never, sender or receiver
|
Creates the node to which an address refers if it does not exist. No error is raised if the node does exist. The details of the node may be specified in the node option.
|
delete
|
one of:
always, never, sender or receiver
|
Delete the node when the sender or receiver is closed.
|
node
|
A nested map containing
node properties.
|
Specifies properties of the node to which the address refers. These are used in conjunction with the
assert or create options.
|
link
|
A nested map containing
link properties.
|
Used to control the establishment of a conceptual link from the client application to or from the target/source address.
|
mode
|
one of:
browse, consume
|
This option is only of relevance for source addresses that resolve to a queue. If browse is specified the messages delivered to the receiver are left on the queue rather than being removed. If consume is specified the normal behavior applies; messages are removed from the queue once the client acknowledges their receipt.
