6.7.2. Declaring a Priority Queue

To declare a priority queue, specify a value for qpid.priorities in the x-declare arguments of the node declaration. For example:
Python
sender = session.sender('my-queue; {create: always, node:{x-declare:{arguments:{qpid.priorities:10}}}}')
Using qpid-config:
qpid-config add queue 'my-queue; {create: always, node:{x-declare:{arguments:{qpid.priorities:10}}}}'
