…mik081) This PR was squashed before being merged into the 7.4 branch. Discussion ---------- [Messenger] Add AMQP exchange to exchange bindings ## Q/A | Q | A | ------------- | --- | Branch? | 7.4 | Bug fix? | no | New feature? | yes | Deprecations? | no | Tickets | | License | MIT | Doc PR | symfony/symfony-docs#16783 ## Changes description This PR introduces very similar changes to this one: #34737, which was closed due to the lack of the feedback. I'd like to continue this topic, share the missing feedback and discuss it further if needed. I have introduced the possibility to configure `exchange-to-exchange` bindings in `amqp` transport. This feature uses `\AMQPExchange::bind()` method already provided by the stub in `php-amqp/php-amqp`: https://github.com/php-amqp/php-amqp/blob/bb7611220e341039a7f5d72e606ca1e16eda4642/stubs/AMQPExchange.php#L22 Example `messenger.yaml`: ```yaml framework: messenger: transports: some_transport: dsn: 'amqp://' options: exchange: type: topic name: some_exchange bindings: # added configuration another_exchange: binding_keys: - key1 - key2 binding_arguments: x-match: all ``` With the above configuration, the `Connection` class creates `some_exchange` and binds it to `another_exchange` using `['key1', 'key2']` keys and `[x-match =>'all']` arguments. ## Reasoning Binding an exchange to an exchange feature can be used to create more complex RabbitMQ topologies. It is also briefly described here: https://www.cloudamqp.com/blog/exchange-to-exchange-binding-in-rabbitmq.html A real-world example could be kind of RabbitMQ publisher/subscriber pattern implementation between microservices, that could be visualized as follows:  In the above example (all the exchanges in this example are of the `topic` type): ``` App `Foo` publishes events to its own exchange AND subscribes to the events that app `Bar` publishes on its exchange. App `Bar` publishes events to its own exchange AND subscribes to the events that app `Foo` publishes on its exchange. App `...` subscribes to the events that apps `Foo` and `Bar` publish on their exchanges. ``` This approach might have few advantages, such as easier maintainability, dependency management and monitoring, or better separation between microservices. ### My thoughts I feel that the fact, that https://github.com/php-amqp/php-amqp has `\AMQPExchange::bind()` implemented is already sufficient reason to have this supported in `symfony/amqp-messenger`. I am aware this feature might be rarely used, but it's already there in the extension, and having the ability to use it within `amqp-messenger` seems reasonable to me.
