Thanks for this article. It's a roadmap for exactly what I'm trying to do, which is to connect my Rails 5.1 app to ActiveMQ. However, the ActiveMessaging gem you link to seems to be abandonware- there's been no commits for 2 years and people are creating issues like 'nothing works?' and receiving no answer. I'd guess that unless this article brought them there then they may not have tried the feature branch of the gem- I guess you've tested all this code works? - but the fact it isn't master and isn't being updated doesn't inspire confidence.

Can I ask if in the last year you're using this gem in production, and if not have you found any other ways of achieving this integration?

I was working with 'feat/rails5' branch ActiveMessaging, core features works fine, but I'm strongly recommend just use Stomp gem and write wrapper for your needs.
