camel-velocity-kafka-connector sink configuration

When using camel-velocity-kafka-connector as sink make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for the connector:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-velocity-kafka-connector</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <!-- use the same version as your Camel Kafka connector version -->
</dependency>

The camel-velocity sink connector supports 13 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Priority

camel.sink.path.resourceUri

Path to the resource. You can prefix with: classpath, file, http, ref, or bean. classpath, file and http loads the resource using these protocols (classpath is default). ref will lookup the resource in the registry. bean will call a method on a bean to be used as the resource. For bean you can specify the method name after dot, eg bean:myBean.myMethod.

null

HIGH

camel.sink.endpoint.allowTemplateFromHeader

Whether to allow to use resource template from header or not (default false). Enabling this allows to specify dynamic templates via message header. However this can be seen as a potential security vulnerability if the header is coming from a malicious user, so use this with care.

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.contentCache

Sets whether to use resource content cache or not

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.encoding

Character encoding of the resource content.

null

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.lazyStartProducer

Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing.

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.loaderCache

Enables / disables the velocity resource loader cache which is enabled by default

true

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.propertiesFile

The URI of the properties file which is used for VelocityEngine initialization.

null

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.basicPropertyBinding

Whether the endpoint should use basic property binding (Camel 2.x) or the newer property binding with additional capabilities

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.synchronous

Sets whether synchronous processing should be strictly used, or Camel is allowed to use asynchronous processing (if supported).

false

MEDIUM

camel.component.velocity.allowTemplateFromHeader

Whether to allow to use resource template from header or not (default false). Enabling this allows to specify dynamic templates via message header. However this can be seen as a potential security vulnerability if the header is coming from a malicious user, so use this with care.

false

MEDIUM

camel.component.velocity.lazyStartProducer

false

MEDIUM

camel.component.velocity.basicPropertyBinding

Whether the component should use basic property binding (Camel 2.x) or the newer property binding with additional capabilities

false

MEDIUM

camel.component.velocity.velocityEngine

To use the VelocityEngine otherwise a new engine is created

null
