...

I want to use a dynamic URI when sending to an endpoint. How do I do that?
For example where the template name is dynamic as shown below:

to()

A dynamic URI is an endpoint URI that varies depending on inflight routing information, such as Exchange properties, message headers, the body, the Camel Context, etc.

For example, if you're using a Freemarker producer and the template location is provided inside the current message, you might expect the following code to work, but it will not.

.

to("freemarker://templateHome/${body.templateName}.ftl")

Use the Recipient List EIP pattern, which allows you to compute the In this case, you must use an EIP (Enterprise Integration Pattern) that is capable of computing a dynamic URI using an Expressionan Expression, such as the Recipient List EIP pattern.

For example using , rewriting the snippet above to use the Simple expression language as shown below::

.

recipientList(simple("freemarker://templateHome/${body.templateName}.ftl"))

Or you could use any other of the other Camel Languages.
