Consul

Since Camel 2.18

The Consul component is a component for integrating your application with Consul.

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
        <artifactId>camel-consul</artifactId>
        <version>${camel-version}</version>
    </dependency>

URI format

    consul://domain?[options]

You can append query options to the URI in the following format:

    ?option=value&option=value&...

Options

The Consul component supports 9 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Type

url (common)

The Consul agent URL

String

datacenter (common)

The data center

String

sslContextParameters (common)

SSL configuration using an org.apache.camel.util.jsse.SSLContextParameters instance.

SSLContextParameters

useGlobalSslContext Parameters (security)

Enable usage of global SSL context parameters.

false

boolean

aclToken (common)

Sets the ACL token to be used with Consul

String

userName (common)

Sets the username to be used for basic authentication

String

password (common)

Sets the password to be used for basic authentication

String

configuration (advanced)

ConsulConfiguration

resolveProperty Placeholders (advanced)

Whether the component should resolve property placeholders on itself when starting. Only properties which are of String type can use property placeholders.

true

boolean

The Consul endpoint is configured using URI syntax:

consul:apiEndpoint

with the following path and query parameters:

Path Parameters (1 parameters):

Name Description Default Type

apiEndpoint

Required The API endpoint

String

Query Parameters (4 parameters):

Name Description Default Type

bridgeErrorHandler (consumer)

Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. By default the consumer will use the org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler to deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored.

false

boolean

exceptionHandler (consumer)

To let the consumer use a custom ExceptionHandler. Notice if the option bridgeErrorHandler is enabled then this option is not in use. By default the consumer will deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored.

ExceptionHandler

exchangePattern (consumer)

Sets the exchange pattern when the consumer creates an exchange.

ExchangePattern

synchronous (advanced)

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

false

boolean

Spring Boot Auto-Configuration

When using Spring Boot make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for auto configuration:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-consul-starter</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>
