ControlBus

...

Component

...

Available

as

of

Camel

...

2.11

...

The

...

controlbus:

...

component

...

provides

...

easy

...

management

...

of

...

Camel

...

applications

...

based

...

on

...

the

...

Control

...

Bus

...

EIP

...

pattern.

...


For

...

example,

...

by

...

sending

...

a

...

message

...

to

...

an

...

Endpoint

...

you

...

can

...

control

...

the

...

lifecycle

...

of

...

routes,

...

or

...

gather

...

performance

...

statistics.

Commands

Wiki Markup
command* can be any string to identify which type of command to use.

h3. Commands 
{div:class=confluenceTableSmall}
|| Command || Description ||
| {{route}} | To control routes using the {{routeId}} and {{action}} parameter. |
| {{language}} | Allows you to specify a [Language] to use for evaluating the message body. If there is any result from the evaluation, then the result is put in the message body. |
{div}

Options

Wiki Markup


h3. Options
{div:class=confluenceTableSmall}
|| Name || Default Value || Description ||
| {{routeId}} | {{null}} | To specify a route by its {{id}}. |
| {{action}} | {{null}} | To denote an action that can be either: {{start}}, {{stop}}, or {{status}}. To either start or stop a route, or to get the status of the route as output in the message body. You can use {{suspend}} and {{resume}} from *Camel 2.11.1* onwards to either suspend or resume a route. And from *Camel 2.11.1* onwards you can use {{stats}} to get performance statics returned in XML format; the {{routeId}} option can be used to define which route to get the performance stats for, if {{routeId}} is not defined, then you get statistics for the entire [CamelContext]. |
| {{async}} | {{false}} | Whether to execute the control bus task asynchronously. *Important:* If this option is enabled, then any result from the task is *not* set on the [Exchange]. This is only possible if executing tasks synchronously. |
| {{loggingLevel}} | {{INFO}} | Logging level used for logging when task is done, or if any exceptions occurred during processing the task. |

h4. Using route command

The route command allows you to do common tasks on a given route very easily, for example to start a route, you can send an empty message to this endpoint:
{code}
template.sendBody("controlbus:route?routeId=foo&action=start", null);
{code}

To

...

get

...

the

...

status

...

of

...

the

...

route,

...

you

...

can

...

do:

{
Code Block

String status = template.requestBody("controlbus:route?routeId=foo&action=status", null, String.class);
{code}


h5. Getting performance statistics
*Available as of Camel 
Getting performance statistics

Available as of Camel 2.11.1

...

This

...

requires

...

JMX

...

to

...

be

...

enabled

...

(is

...

by

...

default)

...

then

...

you

...

can

...

get

...

the

...

performance

...

statics

...

per

...

route,

...

or

...

for

...

the

...

CamelContext

...

.

...

For

...

example

...

to

...

get

...

the

...

statics

...

for

...

a

...

route

...

named

...

foo,

...

we

...

can

...

do:

{
Code Block
}
String xml = template.requestBody("controlbus:route?routeId=foo&action=stats", null, String.class);
{code}

The

...

returned

...

statics

...

is

...

in

...

XML

...

format.

...

Its

...

the

...

same

...

data

...

you

...

can

...

get

...

from

...

JMX

...

with

...

the

...

dumpRouteStatsAsXml

...

operation

...

on

...

the

...

ManagedRouteMBean

...

.

...

To

...

get

...

statics

...

for

...

the

...

entire

...

CamelContext

...

you

...

just

...

omit

...

the

...

routeId

...

parameter

...

as

...

shown

...

below:

{
Code Block
}
String xml = template.requestBody("controlbus:route?action=stats", null, String.class);
{code}


h4. Using [Simple] language

You can use the [Simple] language with the control bus, for example to stop a specific route, you can send a message to the {{

Using Simple language

You can use the Simple language with the control bus, for example to stop a specific route, you can send a message to the "controlbus:language:simple"

...

endpoint

...

containing

...

the

...

following

...

message:

{
Code Block
}
template.sendBody("controlbus:language:simple", "${camelContext.stopRoute('myRoute')}");
{code}

As

...

this

...

is

...

a

...

void

...

operation,

...

no

...

result

...

is

...

returned.

...

However,

...

if

...

you

...

want

...

the

...

route

...

status

...

you

...

can

...

do:

{
Code Block
}
String status = template.requestBody("controlbus:language:simple", "${camelContext.getRouteStatus('myRoute')}", String.class);
{code}

*

Notice:

...

its

...

easier

...

to

...

use

...

the

...

route

...

command

...

to

...

control

...

lifecycle

...

of

...

routes.

...

The

...

language

...

command

...

allows

...

you

...

to

...

execute

...

a

...

language

...

script

...

that

...

has

...

stronger

...

powers

...

such

...

as

...

Groovy

...

or

...

to

...

some

...

extend

...

the

...

Simple

...

language.

...

For

...

example

...

to

...

shutdown

...

Camel

...

itself

...

you

...

can

...

do:

{
Code Block
}
template.sendBody("controlbus:language:simple?async=true", "${camelContext.stop()}");
{code}

Notice

...

we

...

use

...

async=true

...

to

...

stop

...

Camel

...

asynchronously

...

as

...

otherwise

...

we

...

would

...

be

...

trying

...

to

...

stop

...

Camel

...

while

...

it

...

was

...

in-flight

...

processing

...

the

...

message

...

we

...

sent

...

to

...

the

...

control

...

bus

...

component.

...

Tip

You can also use other languages such as Groovy, etc.
