The cxfrs: component provides integration with Apache CXF for connecting to JAX-RS 1.1 and 2.0 services hosted in CXF.

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:

...

Name

Description

Example

Required?

default value

resourceClasses

The resource classes which you want to export as REST service. Multiple classes can be separated by comma.

resourceClasses=org.apache.camel.rs.Example1,
org.apache.camel.rs.Exchange2

No

None

resourceClass

Deprecated: Use resourceClasses The resource class which you want to export as REST service.

resourceClass =org.apache.camel.rs.Example1

No

None

httpClientAPI

new to Camel 2.1 If it is true, the CxfRsProducer will use the HttpClientAPI to invoke the service
If it is false, the CxfRsProducer will use the ProxyClientAPI to invoke the service

httpClientAPI=true

No

true

synchronous

New in 2.5, this option will let CxfRsConsumer decide to use sync or async API to do the underlying work. The default value is false which means it will try to use async API by default.

synchronous=true

No

false

throwExceptionOnFailure

New in 2.6, this option tells the CxfRsProducer to inspect return codes and will generate an Exception if the return code is larger than 207.

throwExceptionOnFailure=true

No

true

maxClientCacheSize

New in 2.6, you can set a IN message header CamelDestinationOverrideUrl to dynamically override the target destination Web Service or REST Service defined in your routes.  The implementation caches CXF clients or ClientFactoryBean in CxfProvider and CxfRsProvider.  This option allows you to configure the maximum size of the cache.

maxClientCacheSize=5

No

10

setDefaultBus

New in 2.9.0. Will set the default bus when CXF endpoint create a bus by itself

setDefaultBus=true

No

false

bus

New in 2.9.0. A default bus created by CXF Bus Factory. Use # notation to reference a bus object from the registry. The referenced object must be an instance of org.apache.cxf.Bus.

bus=#busName

No

None

bindingStyle

As of 2.11. Sets how requests and responses will be mapped to/from Camel. Two values are possible:

  • SimpleConsumer => see the Consuming a REST Request with the Simple Binding Style below.
  • Default => the default style. For consumers this passes on a MessageContentsList to the route, requiring low-level processing in the route.
  • Custom => allows you to specify a custom binding through the binding option.

bindingStyle=SimpleConsumer

No

Default

binding

Allows you to specify a custom CxfRsBinding implementation to perform low-level processing of the raw CXF request and response objects. The implementation must be bound in the Camel registry, and you must use the hash (#) notation to refer to it.binding=#myBindingNoDefaultCxfRsBinding

providers

Since Camel 2.12.2 set custom JAX-RS providers list to the CxfRs endpoint.

providers=#MyProviders

No

None

schemaLocations

Since Camel 2.12.2 Sets the locations of the schemas which can be used to validate the incoming XML or JAXB-driven JSON.

schemaLocations=#MySchemaLocations

No

None

features

Since Camel 2.12.3 Set the feature list to the CxfRs endpoint.

features=#MyFeatures

No

None

properties

Since Camel 2.12.4 Set the properties to the CxfRs endpoint.

properties=#MyProperties

No

None

inInterceptors

Since Camel 2.12.4 Set the inInterceptors to the CxfRs endpoint.

inInterceptors=#MyInterceptors

No

None

outInterceptors

Since Camel 2.12.4 Set the outInterceptor to the CxfRs endpoint.

outInterceptors=#MyInterceptors

No

None

inFaultInterceptors

Since Camel 2.12.4 Set the inFaultInterceptors to the CxfRs endpoint.

inFaultInterceptors=#MyInterceptors

No

None

outFaultIntercetpros

Since Camel 2.12.4 Set the outFaultInterceptors to the CxfRs endpoint.

outFaultInterceptors=#MyInterceptors

No

None

continuationTimeout

Since Camel 2.14.0 This option is used to set the CXF continuation timeout which could be used in CxfConsumer by default when the CXF server is using Jetty or Servlet transport. (Before Camel 2.14.0, CxfConsumer just set the continuation timeout to be 0, which means the continuation suspend operation never timeout.)

continuationTimeout=800000

No

30000

ignoreDeleteMethodMessageBodySince Camel 2.14.1 This option is used to tell CxfRsProducer to ignore the message body of the DELETE method when using HTTP API.ignoreDeleteMethodMessageBody=trueNofalse

modelRef

Since Camel 2.14.2 This option is used to specify the model file which is useful for the resource class without annotation.

Since Camel 2.15 This option can point to a model file without specifying a service class for emulating document-only endpoints

modelRef=classpath:/CustomerServiceModel.xml

NoNone

performInvocation

Since Camel 2.15 When the option is true, camel will perform the invocation of the resource class instance and put the response object into the exchange for further processing.

performInvocation= true

Nofalse
propagateContextsSince Camel 2.15 When the option is true, JAXRS UriInfo, HttpHeaders, Request and SecurityContext contexts will be available to custom CXFRS processors as typed Camel exchange properties. These contexts can be used to analyze the current requests using JAX-RS API.   

You can also configure the CXF REST endpoint through the spring configuration. Since there are lots of difference between the CXF REST client and CXF REST Server, we provide different configuration for them.
Please check out the schema file and CXF JAX-RS documentation for You can also configure the CXF REST endpoint through the spring configuration. Since there are lots of difference between the CXF REST client and CXF REST Server, we provide different configuration for them.

Info
titleNote about resource classes

Resource By default, JAX-RS resource classes are only used to configure JAX-RS properties. Methods will not be executed during routing of messages to the endpoint. Instead, it is the responsibility of the route to do all processing.

Note that starting from Camel 2.15 it is also sufficient to provide an interface only as opposed to a no-op service implementation class for the default mode.

Starting from Camel 2.15, if a performInvocation option is enabled, the service implementation will be invoked first, the response will be set on the Camel exchange and the route execution will continue as usual. This can be useful for

integrating the existing JAX-RS implementations into Camel routes and for post-processing JAX-RS Responses in custom processors.
