Installing RebbitMQ on Mac

Mac OS X with Homebrew

A brew for the RabbitMQ server is available from Homebrew. Note: You may not be able to install the RabbitMQ brew from inside a firewall.

Install the Server

Before installing make sure you have the latest brews:

brew update

Then, install RabbitMQ server with:

brew install rabbitmq

Run RabbitMQ Server

The RabbitMQ server scripts are installed into /usr/local/sbin. This is not automatically added to your path, so you may wish to add
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin to your .bash_profile or .profile. The server can then be started with rabbitmq-server.

All scripts run under your own user account. Sudo is not required.
