Camel SQL Example

Introduction

This example shows how to exchange data using a shared database table.

The example has two Camel routes. The first route insert new data into the table, triggered by a timer to run every 5th second.

The second route pickup the newly inserted rows from the table, process the row(s), and mark the row(s) as processed when done; to avoid picking up the same rows again.

Build

You will need to compile this example first:

mvn install

Run with maven

To run the example type

mvn camel:run

To stop the example hit ctrl+c

This example uses Spring to setup and configure the database, as well the CamelContext. You can see this in the following file: In the src/main/resources/META-INF/spring/camel-context.xml

Run with Karaf

To install Apache Camel in Karaf you type in the shell (we use version ${project.version}):

feature:repo-add camel ${project.version}
feature:install camel

First you need to install the following features in Karaf/ServiceMix with:

feature:install camel-spring
feature:install camel-sql

Then you need to install JDBC connection pool and the Derby Database:

install -s mvn:commons-pool/commons-pool/1.6
install -s mvn:commons-dbcp/commons-dbcp/1.4
install -s mvn:org.apache.derby/derby/10.10.1.1

Then you can install the Camel example:

install -s mvn:org.apache.camel/camel-example-sql/${project.version}

And you can see the application running by tailing the logs

log:tail

And you can use ctrl+c to stop tailing the log.
