interested in CPU statistics, you could use the routing key "collectd.*.cpu.#"
for example.

-=item B<Persistent>
+=item B<Persistent> B<true>|B<false> (Publish only)
+Selects the I<delivery method> to use. If set to B<true>, the I<persistent>
+mode will be used, i.e. delivery is guaranteed. If set to B<false> (the
+default), the I<transient> delivery mode will be used, i.e. messages may be
+lost due to high load, overflowing queues or similar issues.
-B<TODO!>
+=item B<Format> B<Command>|B<JSON> (Publish only)
-=item B<Format>
+Selects the format in which messages are sent to the broker. If set to
+B<Command> (the default), values are sent as C<PUTVAL> commands which are
+identical to the syntax used by the I<Exec> and I<UnixSock plugins>. In this
+case, the C<Content-Type> header field will be set to C<text/collectd>.
-B<TODO!>
+If set to B<JSON>, the values are encoded in the I<JavaScript Object Notation>,
+an easy and straight forward exchange format. The C<Content-Type> header field
+will be set to C<application/json>.
-=item B<StoreRates>
+A subscribing client I<should> use the C<Content-Type> header field to
+determine how to decode the values. Currently, the I<AMQP plugin> itself can
+only decode the B<Command> format.
-B<TODO!>
+=item B<StoreRates> B<true>|B<false> (Publish only)
+
+Determines whether or not C<COUNTER>, C<DERIVE> and C<ABSOLUTE> data sources
+are converted to a I<rate> (i.e. a C<GAUGE> value). If set to B<false> (the
+default), no conversion is performed. Otherwise the conversion is performed
+using the internal value cache.
+
+Please note that currently this option is only used if the B<Format> option has
+been set to B<JSON>.
