Since we're on a major migration process of this website, some component documents here are out of sync right now. In the meantime you may want to look at the early version of the new website
https://camel.apache.org/staging/
We would very much like to receive any feedback on the new site, please join the discussion on the Camel user mailing list.
RoutesCamel supports the definition of routing rules using a Java DSL (domain specific language) which avoids the need for cumbersome XML using a RouteBuilder. For example a simple route can be created as follows. RouteBuilder builder = new RouteBuilder() {
public void configure() {
errorHandler(deadLetterChannel("mock:error"));
from("direct:a").to("direct:b");
}
};
As you can see from the above Camel uses URIs to wire endpoints together. URI String formattingAvailable as of Camel 2.0 If you have endpoint URIs that accept options and you want to be able to substitute the value, e.g. build the URI by concat the strings together, then you can use the from("direct:start").toF("file://%s?fileName=%s", path, name);
fromF("file://%s?include=%s", path, pattern).toF("mock:%s", result);
FiltersYou can combine simple routes with filters which can be arbitrary Predicate implementations. RouteBuilder builder = new RouteBuilder() {
public void configure() {
errorHandler(deadLetterChannel("mock:error"));
from("direct:a")
.filter(header("foo").isEqualTo("bar"))
.to("direct:b");
}
};
ChoicesWith a choice you provide a list of predicates and outcomes along with an optional default otherwise clause which is invoked if none of the conditions are met. RouteBuilder builder = new RouteBuilder() {
public void configure() {
errorHandler(deadLetterChannel("mock:error"));
from("direct:a")
.choice()
.when(header("foo").isEqualTo("bar"))
.to("direct:b")
.when(header("foo").isEqualTo("cheese"))
.to("direct:c")
.otherwise()
.to("direct:d");
}
};
Using a custom processorHere is an example of using a custom Processor myProcessor = new Processor() {
public void process(Exchange exchange) {
log.debug("Called with exchange: " + exchange);
}
};
RouteBuilder builder = new RouteBuilder() {
public void configure() {
errorHandler(deadLetterChannel("mock:error"));
from("direct:a")
.process(myProcessor);
}
};
You can mix and match custom processors with filters and choices. RouteBuilder builder = new RouteBuilder() {
public void configure() {
errorHandler(deadLetterChannel("mock:error"));
from("direct:a")
.filter(header("foo").isEqualTo("bar"))
.process(myProcessor);
}
};
