Can I iterate through queues using the RabbitMQ .NET Client?

I'd like a way to iterate through existing queues on a rabbit server's virtual host, and output the number of messages in the queues, without hardcoding the queue names into my C# code.

Here's an example of getting the number of messages in a queue by hardcoding the queue value, using the RabbitMQ .NET Client:

using System;
using RabbitMQ.Client;

namespace RabbitMonitor
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var factory = new ConnectionFactory()
            {
                HostName = "<HostName>",
                UserName = "<UserName>",
                Password = "<Password>",
                VirtualHost = "<VirtualHost>",
                Port = 5672
            };

            var queueNameMessageCount = 0;

            using (var connection = factory.CreateConnection())
            using (var channel = connection.CreateModel())
            {
                queueNameMessageCount = channel.MessageCount("<QueueName>");
            }
        }
    }
}

Is there a way I can get a collection of queues / queue names that are on a given virtual host, using the RabbitMQ .NET Client?

No, not really. At least not with the AMQP client, since the protocol does not provide a way to get such listing.

You can, however, use the RabbitMQ management plugin. It provides a REST API where you can gather this information.
