The jdbc component enables you to access databases through JDBC, where SQL queries (SELECT) and operations (INSERT, UPDATE, etc) are sent in the message body. This component uses the standard JDBC API, unlike the SQL Component component, which uses spring-jdbc.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml
for this component:
...
...
This component can only be used to define producer endpoints, which means that you cannot use the JDBC component in a from()
statement
...
.
URI format
...
...
This component only supports producer endpoints.
You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?option=value&option=value&...

Result
By default the The result is returned in the OUT body as an ArrayList<HashMap<String, Object>>
. The List
object contains the list of rows and the Map
objects contain each row with the String
key as the column name. You can use the option outputType
to control the result.
Note: This component fetches ResultSetMetaData
to be able to return the column name as the key in the Map
.

Generated keys
Available as of Camel 2.10
If you insert data using SQL INSERT, then the RDBMS may support auto generated keys. You can instruct the JDBC producer to return the generated keys in headers.
To do that set the header CamelRetrieveGeneratedKeys=true
. Then the generated keys will be provided as headers with the keys listed in the table above.
You can see more details in this unit test.
...
Using generated keys does not work with together with named parameters.
Using named parameters
Available as of Camel 2.12
In the given route below, we want to get all the projects from the projects table. Notice the SQL query has 2 named parameters, :?lic and :?min.
Camel will then lookup these parameters from the message headers. Notice in the example above we set two headers with constant value
for the named parameters:
...
You can also store the header values in a java.util.Map
and store the map on the headers with the key CamelJdbcParameters
.
Samples
In the following example, we fetch the rows from the customer table.
First we register our datasource in the Camel registry as testdb
:
...
...
...
Then we configure a route that routes to the JDBC component, so the SQL will be executed. Note how we refer to the testdb
datasource that was bound in the previous step:
...
...
Or you can create a DataSource
in Spring like this:
...
...
We create an endpoint, add the SQL query to the body of the IN message, and then send the exchange. The result of the query is returned in the OUT body:
...
...
If you want to work on the rows one by one instead of the entire ResultSet at once you need to use the Splitter EIP such as:
...
In Camel 2.13.x or older

Sample - Polling the database every minute
If we want to poll a database using the JDBC component, we need to combine it with a polling scheduler such as the Timer or Quartz etc. In the following example, we retrieve data from the database every 60 seconds:
...
...
Sample - Move Data Between Data Sources
A common use case is to query for data, process it and move it to another data source (ETL operations). In the following example, we retrieve new customer records from the source table every hour, filter/transform them and move them to a destination table:
