aws-sqs: Delete a specific queue.
$ aws sqs delete-queue --queue-url https://sqs.${region}.amazonaws.com/${queue_name}
try on your machine

This command is used to delete an Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) queue in AWS.

The command aws sqs delete-queue is a specific AWS CLI command that interacts with SQS.

The --queue-url parameter is used to specify the URL of the queue that you want to delete. In this case, the URL is https://sqs.${region}.amazonaws.com/${queue_name}.

${region} and ${queue_name} are variables, and their values need to be replaced with the appropriate values based on your specific use case. ${region} should be replaced with the desired AWS region where the queue is located, such as us-west-2. ${queue_name} should be replaced with the name of the queue you want to delete, such as my-queue.

By running this command with the correct values for ${region} and ${queue_name}, the specified SQS queue will be deleted.
