Let us take a closer look at the aws CLI SQS to create Queue in detail. With the support of AWS Support services, we can give you a detailed note on how  AWS SQS works.

AWS CLI SQS

Amazon SQS is a dependable, highly scalable hosted queue used to store messages as they pass between applications or microservices. Amazon SQS allows you to disconnect distant application components by moving data across them.

The AWS Command Line Interface or AWS CLI is a centralized management tool for AWS services. A user may handle various AWS services from the command line and automate them using scripts with only one tool to download and configure. AWS CLI SQS creates a queue using AWS CLI, a user may list, create, and remove Queues, as well as send and receive messages via the terminal.

Create an SQS Queue

Make a file with the name q-attributes.json containing this information.

{
"MessageRetentionPeriod": "180"
}

Do this now, provided the machine has AWS CLI installed and configured.

aws sqs create-queue --queue-name sreeQ --attributes file://q-attributes.json

An output will open up as shown below. Keep the Q link because it is necessary for the reaming section.

{
"QueueUrl": "https://ap-south-1.queue.amazonaws.com/nnn/sreeQ"
}

To examine the SQS queue characteristics, use the following code.

aws sqs get-queue-attributes --queue-url https://ap-south-1.queue.amazonaws.com/nnn/sreeQ --attribute-names All

An output as given below will open up:

{
"Attributes": {
"QueueArn": "arn:aws:sqs:ap-south-1:nnn:sreeQ",
"ApproximateNumberOfMessages": "0",
"ApproximateNumberOfMessagesNotVisible": "0",
"ApproximateNumberOfMessagesDelayed": "0",
"CreatedTimestamp": "1540707132",
"LastModifiedTimestamp": "1540707132",
"VisibilityTimeout": "30",
"MaximumMessageSize": "262144",
"MessageRetentionPeriod": "180",
"DelaySeconds": "0",
"ReceiveMessageWaitTimeSeconds": "0"
}
}

Execute the following command to create an SQS Queue.

aws sqs create-queue --queue-name my-sqs-using-cli

It is possible to provide attributes while creating an SQS Queue; for example, to build a Queue with the parameter DelaySeconds, run the following command.

aws sqs create-queue --queue-name my-sqs-using-cli-with-attribute --tags "env"="test"
--attributes DelaySeconds=10 This is the final step in creating an SQS queue.
