Which version of RabbitMQ is compatible with this code?

Hi, thanks for the code.
I am trying to run the distributed training however, I have got below error:

Using TensorFlow backend.
Initializing a random population. Size: 20
Starting genetic algorithm...

Evaluating generation #1...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/media/vip/Program/mobeen/gentun/tests/mnist_server.py", line 23, in <module>

    fittest = self.population.get_fittest()

    result = self.channel.queue_declare(exclusive=True)
TypeError: queue_declare() missing 1 required positional argument: 'queue'

Process finished with exit code 1

I solved this error as suggested here giving an empty queue.
After this I got another error as below:

    self.channel.basic_consume(self.on_response, no_ack=True, queue=self.callback_queue)
TypeError: basic_consume() got an unexpected keyword argument 'no_ack'

Process finished with exit code 1

By the feel of these errors I think I am using some other version of RabbitMQ.
I installed RabbitMQ using:
sudo apt-get install rabbitmq-server

Is it a version mismatch or am I missing something?

hi! thanks for using this code. I'll further investigate this. It could be that pika==1.0.1 is not compatible with the latest rabbitmq-server version.
Anyways I'm also working in a dockerized implementation of the server code too so that users don't have to worry about installing rabbitmq.

@ahmadmobeen I was able to replicate your problem, thanks for reporting it. It's due to pika updating its API. Please use pika==1.1.0 (which should be compatible with your rabbitmq version) and the dev branch code of client.py and server.py. I will merge with master sometime later.

edit: I'm also working on the dockerfile for the gentun server to simplify running the distributed version of the genetic algorithm.

@gmontamat Thank you for your reply. I was able to run the code by doing some small changes in server.py and client.py as shown here

I tried this method and it worked for generation # 1.

I tried this and it worked for generation # 1.

got the following error in both cases:
