== Spring Boot Example with Camel REST DSL and Platform HTTP

=== Introduction

This example illustrates how to use https://projects.spring.io/spring-boot/[Spring Boot] with http://camel.apache.org[Camel]. It provides a simple REST service that is created with http://camel.apache.org/rest-dsl.html[Camel REST DSL] and https://camel.apache.org/components/3.18.x/platform-http-component.html[platform-http].

The project uses the `camel-spring-boot-starter` dependency, a Spring Boot starter dependency for Camel that simplifies the Maven configuration. 

The project also uses `camel-servlet-starter` component as the implementation for platform-http-engine.

=== Build

You can build this example using:

    $ mvn package

=== Run

You can run this example using:

    $ mvn spring-boot:run

You should see the following output when the application is launched:
