Is there an option to shovel move messages between vhosts?

[sommmen]

Hiya,

I have a vhost for production and development. I want to shovel some production data in my development environment to test/debug.

It seems that in this box i can move messages to another queue, but it looks like i cannot supply or reference another vhost.

nvm - can easily be done by making a shovel. It'd be nice to have this in the 'move messages' part of a queue however, would this be a good feature request? I think the dev/prod enviroment setup i have is more common.

Hi @sommmen

Nice, yes that can be achieved with shovels 👍 (The 'move messages' button actually just creates a shovel as well🙂)

Thanks for the feature suggestion. Maybe that could be a separate button on the vhost page 🤔
Adding this to our inbox to discuss with the rest of the team.

Sounds good - thanks.

The only issue i have now with a shovel is that i cannot pause/unpause the shovel, i'd have to del/create. So if the move messages would support this i could just pause the queue in my prod vhost for a minute, move alle messages and resume the queue.

Should be easy to implement with a dropdown to select the vhost or even by being able to reference the vhost like #dev.my-queue or something.
