. | pattern | null | Allows you to specify a custom Date pattern to use for setting the time option using URI syntax. | period | 1000 | If greater than 0, generate periodic events every period milliseconds. | delay | 0 / 1000 | The number of milliseconds to wait before the first event is generated. Should not be used in conjunction with the time option. The default value has been changed to 1000 from Camel 2.11 onwards. In older releases the default value is 0. | fixedRate | false | Events take place at approximately regular intervals, separated by the specified period. | daemon | true | Specifies whether or not the thread associated with the timer endpoint runs as a daemon. | repeatCount | 0 | Camel 2.8: Specifies a maximum limit of number of fires. So if you set it to 1, the timer will only fire once. If you set it to 5, it will only fire five times. A value of zero or negative means fire forever. |
