Geocoder Component
Available as of Camel 2.12
The geocoder: component is used for looking up geocodes (latitude and longitude) for a given address, or reverse lookup. The component uses the Java API for Google Geocoder library.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml
for this component:
Code Block |
---|
|
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-geocoder</artifactId>
<version>x.x.x</version>
<!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>
|
Code Block |
---|
geocoder:address:name[?options]
geocoder:latlng:latitude,longitude[?options]
|
Options
Div |
---|
class | confluenceTableSmall |
---|
|
Property | Default | Description |
---|
language | en | The language to use. | headersOnly | false | Whether to only enrich the Exchange with headers, and leave the body as-is. | clientId | | To use google premium with this client id | clientKey | | To use google premium with this client key |
|
You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?option=value&option=value&...
Camel will deliver the body as a com.google.code.geocoder.model.GeocodeResponse
type.
And if the address is "current"
then the response is a String type with a JSON representation of the current location.
If the option headersOnly
is set to true
then the message body is left as-is, and only headers will be added to the Exchange.

Header | Description |
---|
CamelGeoCoderStatus | Mandatory. Status code from the geocoder library. If status is GeocoderStatus.OK then additional headers is enriched | CamelGeoCoderAddress | The formatted address | CamelGeoCoderLat | The latitude of the location. | CamelGeoCoderLng | The longitude of the location. | CamelGeoCoderLatlng | The latitude and longitude of the location. Separated by comma. | CamelGeoCoderCity | The city long name. | CamelGeoCoderRegionCode | The region code. | CamelGeoCoderRegionName | The region name. | CamelGeoCoderCountryLong | The country long name. | CamelGeoCoderCountryShort | The country short name. |
|
Notice not all headers may be provided depending on available data and mode in use (address vs latlng).
Samples
In the example below we get the latitude and longitude for Paris, France
Code Block |
---|
from("direct:start")
.to("geocoder:address:Paris, France")
|
If you provide a header with the CamelGeoCoderAddress
then that overrides the endpoint configuration, so to get the location of Copenhagen, Denmark we can send a message with a headers as shown:
Code Block |
---|
template.sendBodyAndHeader("direct:start", "Hello", GeoCoderConstants.ADDRESS, "Copenhagen, Denmark");
|
To get the address for a latitude and longitude we can do:
Code Block |
---|
from("direct:start")
.to("geocoder:latlng:40.714224,-73.961452")
.log("Location ${header.CamelGeocoderAddress} is at lat/lng: ${header.CamelGeocoderLatlng} and in country ${header.CamelGeoCoderCountryShort}")
|
Which will log
Code Block |
---|
Location 285 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211, USA is at lat/lng: 40.71412890,-73.96140740 and in country US
|
To get the current location you can use "current" as the address as shown:
Code Block |
---|
from("direct:start")
.to("geocoder:address:current")
