how to send a file like word via RabbitMQ

Question

I need to be able to send files like pdf or word via RabbitMQ (I think answer might be more generic meaning not specific to RabbitMQ but any broker I am however using RabbitMQ).

Is there are way to send them as mimes or do I need to convert to base64 and then send that.

Or am I going on a tangent here :( please help.

Answer 1

RabbitMQ doesn't look into the body of the message, you can send anything, any binary data.
