Re: check if conx to Net::RabbitMQ is still alive

It looks to me like the heartbeat parameter will determine how often you need to send a heartbeat frame; it's up to you to make sure that happens. I don't see that there is a way to get the server to tell you it's about to disconnect. You need to store somewhere in your program the last time you interacted with the server.

So I need to say somewhere in my code : if X amount of time has passed $rabbitmq->heartbeat() ? is this what you mean ? Or setting the param will do this by itself?	[reply]

Yes. It will not automatically send the heartbeat. The RabbitMQ documentation indicates that heartbeating is intended to allow for quicker detection of a lost connection. Any activity on the connection counts as a heartbeat; you only need to send an explicit beat if nothing else is happening.
