getQueueAttributes method

Future<GetQueueAttributesResult> getQueueAttributes({
  1. required String queueUrl,
  2. List<QueueAttributeName>? attributeNames,
})

Gets attributes for the specified queue.

May throw InvalidAttributeName.

Parameter queueUrl : The URL of the Amazon SQS queue whose attribute information is retrieved.

Queue URLs and names are case-sensitive.

Parameter attributeNames : A list of attributes for which to retrieve information. The following attributes are supported:

  • All – Returns all values.
  • ApproximateNumberOfMessages – Returns the approximate number of messages available for retrieval from the queue.
  • ApproximateNumberOfMessagesDelayed – Returns the approximate number of messages in the queue that are delayed and not available for reading immediately. This can happen when the queue is configured as a delay queue or when a message has been sent with a delay parameter.
  • ApproximateNumberOfMessagesNotVisible – Returns the approximate number of messages that are in flight. Messages are considered to be in flight if they have been sent to a client but have not yet been deleted or have not yet reached the end of their visibility window.
  • CreatedTimestamp – Returns the time when the queue was created in seconds (epoch time).
  • DelaySeconds – Returns the default delay on the queue in seconds.
  • LastModifiedTimestamp – Returns the time when the queue was last changed in seconds (epoch time).
  • MaximumMessageSize – Returns the limit of how many bytes a message can contain before Amazon SQS rejects it.
  • MessageRetentionPeriod – Returns the length of time, in seconds, for which Amazon SQS retains a message.
  • Policy – Returns the policy of the queue.
  • QueueArn – Returns the Amazon resource name (ARN) of the queue.
  • ReceiveMessageWaitTimeSeconds – Returns the length of time, in seconds, for which the ReceiveMessage action waits for a message to arrive.
  • RedrivePolicy – The string that includes the parameters for the dead-letter queue functionality of the source queue as a JSON object. For more information about the redrive policy and dead-letter queues, see Using Amazon SQS Dead-Letter Queues in the Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide.
    • deadLetterTargetArn – The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the dead-letter queue to which Amazon SQS moves messages after the value of maxReceiveCount is exceeded.
    • maxReceiveCount – The number of times a message is delivered to the source queue before being moved to the dead-letter queue. When the ReceiveCount for a message exceeds the maxReceiveCount for a queue, Amazon SQS moves the message to the dead-letter-queue.
  • VisibilityTimeout – Returns the visibility timeout for the queue. For more information about the visibility timeout, see Visibility Timeout in the Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide.
The following attributes apply only to server-side-encryption:
  • KmsMasterKeyId – Returns the ID of an AWS-managed customer master key (CMK) for Amazon SQS or a custom CMK. For more information, see Key Terms.
  • KmsDataKeyReusePeriodSeconds – Returns the length of time, in seconds, for which Amazon SQS can reuse a data key to encrypt or decrypt messages before calling AWS KMS again. For more information, see How Does the Data Key Reuse Period Work?.
The following attributes apply only to FIFO (first-in-first-out) queues:
  • FifoQueue – Returns information about whether the queue is FIFO. For more information, see FIFO Queue Logic in the Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide.
  • ContentBasedDeduplication – Returns whether content-based deduplication is enabled for the queue. For more information, see Exactly-Once Processing in the Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide.
Preview: High throughput for FIFO queues

High throughput for Amazon SQS FIFO queues is in preview release and is subject to change. This feature provides a high number of transactions per second (TPS) for messages in FIFO queues. For information on throughput quotas, see Quotas related to messages in the Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide.

This preview includes two new attributes:

  • DeduplicationScope – Specifies whether message deduplication occurs at the message group or queue level. Valid values are messageGroup and queue.
  • FifoThroughputLimit – Specifies whether the FIFO queue throughput quota applies to the entire queue or per message group. Valid values are perQueue and perMessageGroupId. The perMessageGroupId value is allowed only when the value for DeduplicationScope is messageGroup.
To enable high throughput for FIFO queues, do the following:
  • Set DeduplicationScope to messageGroup.
  • Set FifoThroughputLimit to perMessageGroupId.
If you set these attributes to anything other than the values shown for enabling high throughput, standard throughput is in effect and deduplication occurs as specified.

This preview is available in the following AWS Regions:

  • US East (Ohio); us-east-2
  • US East (N. Virginia); us-east-1
  • US West (Oregon); us-west-2
  • Europe (Ireland); eu-west-1
For more information about high throughput for FIFO queues, see Preview: High throughput for FIFO queues in the Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide.

Implementation

Future<GetQueueAttributesResult> getQueueAttributes({
  required String queueUrl,
  List<QueueAttributeName>? attributeNames,
}) async {
  ArgumentError.checkNotNull(queueUrl, 'queueUrl');
  final $request = <String, dynamic>{};
  $request['QueueUrl'] = queueUrl;
  attributeNames?.also((arg) =>
      $request['AttributeNames'] = arg.map((e) => e.toValue()).toList());
  final $result = await _protocol.send(
    $request,
    action: 'GetQueueAttributes',
    version: '2012-11-05',
    method: 'POST',
    requestUri: '/',
    exceptionFnMap: _exceptionFns,
    shape: shapes['GetQueueAttributesRequest'],
    shapes: shapes,
    resultWrapper: 'GetQueueAttributesResult',
