This documentation page covers the Apache Spark component for the Apache Camel. The main purpose of the Spark integration with Camel is to provide a bridge between Camel connectors and Spark tasks. In particular Camel connector provides a way to route message from various transports, dynamically choose a task to execute, use incoming message as input data for that task and finally deliver the results of the execution back to the Camel pipeline.

Supported architectural styles

KuraRouter activator

Bundles deployed to the Eclipse Kura are usually developed as bundle activators. So the easiest way to deploy Apache Camel routes into the Kura is to create an OSGi bundle containing the class extending org.apache.camel.kura.KuraRouter class:

...

public class MyKuraRouter extends KuraRouter {

    @Override
    public void configure() throws Exception {
		producerTemplate.sendBody("jms:temperature", 22.0);
   		...
    }

}

ConsumerTemplate

Protected member consumerTemplate is the ConsumerTemplate instance associated with the given Camel context.

public class MyKuraRouter extends KuraRouter {

    @Override
    public void configure() throws Exception {
		double currentTemperature = producerTemplate.receiveBody("jms:temperature", Double.class);
        ...
    }

}

OSGi service resolver

OSGi service resolver (service(Class<T> serviceType)) can be used to easily retrieve service by type from the OSGi bundle context.

public class MyKuraRouter extends KuraRouter {

    @Override
    public void configure() throws Exception {
		MyService myService = service(MyService.class);
        ...
    }

}

If service is not found, a null value is returned. If you want your application to fail if the service is not available, use requiredService(Class) method instead. The requiredService throws IllegalStateException if a service cannot be found.

public class MyKuraRouter extends KuraRouter {

    @Override
    public void configure() throws Exception {
		MyService myService = requiredService(MyService.class);
        ...
    }

}

KuraRouter activator callbacks

Kura router comes with the lifecycle callbacks that can be used to customize the way the Camel router works. For example to configure the CamelContext instance associated with the router just before the former is started, override beforeStart method of the KuraRouter class:
