Java Camel Spring QuickStart

This quickstarts run in a Java standalone container, using Spring with Apache Camel.

This example is implemented using solely a Spring XML file (there is no custom Java code). The source code is provided in the following XML file src/main/resources/META-INF/spring/camel-context.xml, which can be viewed from github.

This example uses a timer to trigger a message every 5th second that is routed using a content based router, based on the message is regarded as high priority or not.

The example can be built with

mvn clean install

The example can be run locally using the following Maven goal:

mvn camel:run

It is assumed a running Kubernetes platform is already running. If not you can find details how to get started.

The example can be built and deployed using a single goal:

mvn -Pf8-local-deploy

When the example runs in fabric8, you can use the OpenShift client tool to inspect the status

To list all the running pods:

oc get pods

Then find the name of the pod that runs this quickstart, and output the logs from the running pods with:

oc logs <name of pod>

You can also use the OpenShift web console to manage the running pods, and view logs and much more.

The example can also be built and run using the included S2I template quickstart-template.json.

The application can be run directly by first editing the template file and populating S2I build parameters, including the required parameter GIT_REPO and then executing the command:

oc new-app -f quickstart-template.json

Alternatively the template file can be used to create an OpenShift application template by executing the command:

oc create -f quickstart-template.json

You can find more details about running this quickstart on the website. This also includes instructions how to change the Docker image user and registry.
