Code Block
      from("twitter://search?type=polling&keywords=music&delay=10&consumerKey=abc&consumerSecret=def&accessToken=hij&accessTokenSecret=xxx")
        .convertBodyTo(SplunkEvent.class)
        .to("splunk://submit?username=foo&password=bar&index=camel-tweets&sourceType=twitter&source=music-tweets");

To convert a Tweet to a SplunkEvent you could use a converter like

Code Block

@Converter
public class Tweet2SplunkEvent {
    @Converter
    public static SplunkEvent convertTweet(Status status) {
        SplunkEvent data = new SplunkEvent("twitter-message", null);
        //data.addPair("source", status.getSource());
        data.addPair("from_user", status.getUser().getScreenName());
        data.addPair("in_reply_to", status.getInReplyToScreenName());
        data.addPair(SplunkEvent.COMMON_START_TIME, status.getCreatedAt());
        data.addPair(SplunkEvent.COMMON_EVENT_ID, status.getId());
        data.addPair("text", status.getText());
        data.addPair("retweet_count", status.getRetweetCount());
        if (status.getPlace() != null) {
            data.addPair("place_country", status.getPlace().getCountry());
            data.addPair("place_name", status.getPlace().getName());
            data.addPair("place_street", status.getPlace().getStreetAddress());
        }
        if (status.getGeoLocation() != null) {
            data.addPair("geo_latitude", status.getGeoLocation().getLatitude());
            data.addPair("geo_longitude", status.getGeoLocation().getLongitude());
        }
        return data;
    }
}

Splunk comes with a variety of options for leveraging machine generated data with prebuilt apps for analyzing and displaying this.
For example the jmx app. could be used to publish jmx attributes, eg. route and jvm metrics to Splunk, and displaying this on a dashboard.
