Javax Websocket :: Apache Camel

URI format

To consume from the local instance on a particular path the messages:

websocket-jsr356://${path}

To consume from a remote instance - i.e. Camel will be a client - on a particular uri the messages:

websocket-jsr356://${uri}

You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?option=value&option=value&…

Websocket Options

The Javax Websocket component supports 4 options, which are listed below.

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
lazyStartProducer (producer)	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	boolean
basicPropertyBinding (advanced)	Whether the component should use basic property binding (Camel 2.x) or the newer property binding with additional capabilities	false	boolean
serverEndpointDeployment Strategy (advanced)	To enable customization of how a WebSocket ServerEndpoint is configured and deployed. By default DefaultServerEndpointDeploymentStrategy is used.		ServerEndpointDeploymentStrategy

serverEndpointDeployment Strategy (advanced)

To enable customization of how a WebSocket ServerEndpoint is configured and deployed. By default DefaultServerEndpointDeploymentStrategy is used.

ServerEndpointDeploymentStrategy

The Javax Websocket endpoint is configured using URI syntax:

websocket-jsr356:uri

with the following path and query parameters:

Path Parameters (1 parameters):

Name	Description	Default	Type
uri	If a schemeless URI path is provided, a ServerEndpoint is deployed under that path. Else if the URI is prefixed with the 'ws://' scheme, then a connection is established to the corresponding server		URI

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. The value can be one of: InOnly, InOut, InOptionalOut		ExchangePattern

Spring Boot Auto-Configuration

When using websocket-jsr356 with Spring Boot make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for auto configuration:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.springboot</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-websocket-jsr356-starter</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
