How to get messages receive count in Amazon SQS using boto library in Python?

Question

I am using boto library in Python to get Amazon SQS messages. In exceptional cases I don\'t delete messages from queue in order to give a couple of more changes to recover tempo

Answer 1

Get ApproximateReceiveCount attribute from message you read. move it to another queue(than you can manage error messages) or just delete it.

foreach (var message in response.Messages){
       try{
           var notifyMessage = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(message.Body);
                    Global.Sqs.DeleteMessageFromQ(message.ReceiptHandle);
           }
       catch (Exception ex){
           var  receiveMessageCount = int.Parse(message.Attributes["ApproximateReceiveCount"]);
           if (receiveMessageCount >3 ) 
              Global.Sqs.DeleteMessageFromQ(message.ReceiptHandle);
            }
        }
