database

none

Required. The name of the database to which this endpoint will be bound. All operations will be executed against this database unless dynamicity is enabled and the CamelMongoDbDatabase header is set.

(tick)

(tick)

collection

none

Required (Except for getDbStats and command operations). The name of the collection (within the specified database) to which this endpoint will be bound. All operations will be executed against this database unless dynamicity is enabled and the CamelMongoDbDatabase header is set.

(tick)

(tick)

collectionIndex

none

Available as of Camel 2.12: An optional single field index or compound index to create when inserting new collections.

(tick)

 

operation

none

Required for producers. The id of the operation this endpoint will execute. Pick from the following:

  • Query operations: findById, findOneByQuery, findAll, count
  • Write operations: insert, save, update
  • Delete operations: remove
  • Other operations: getDbStats, getColStats, aggregate, command

(tick)

 

createCollection

true

Determines whether the collection will be automatically created in the MongoDB database during endpoint initialisation if it doesn't exist already. If this option is false and the collection doesn't exist, an initialisation exception will be thrown.

(tick)

 

invokeGetLastError

false (behaviour may be inherited from connections WriteConcern)

Remove in camel 2.16

Instructs the MongoDB Java driver to invoke getLastError() after every call. Default behaviour in version 2.7.2 of the MongoDB Java driver is that only network errors will cause the operation to fail, because the actual operation is executed asynchronously in the MongoDB server without holding up the client - to increase performance. The client can obtain the real result of the operation by explicitly invoking getLastError() on the WriteResult object returned or by setting the appropriate WriteConcern. If the backend operation has not finished yet, the client will block until the result is available. Setting this option to true will make the endpoint behave synchronously and return an Exception if the underlying operation failed.

WriteConcern should be preferred to detect if write occurs without errors. MongoDB strongly discourage to use this method as it is not reliable.

(tick)

 

writeConcern

none (driver's default)

Set a WriteConcern on the operation out of MongoDB's parameterised values. See WriteConcern.valueOf(String).

(tick)

 

writeConcernRef

none

Sets a custom WriteConcern that exists in the Registry. Specify the bean name.

(tick)

 

readPreference

none

Available as of Camel 2.12.4, 2.13.1 and 2.14.0: Sets a ReadPreference on the connection. Accepted values are those supported by the ReadPreference#valueOf() public API. Currently as of MongoDB-Java-Driver version 2.12.0 the supported values are: primary, primaryPreferred, secondary, secondaryPreferred and nearest. See also the documentation for more details about this option.

(tick)

 

dynamicity

false

If set to true, the endpoint will inspect the CamelMongoDbDatabase and CamelMongoDbCollection headers of the incoming message, and if any of them exists, the target collection and/or database will be overridden for that particular operation. Set to false by default to avoid triggering the lookup on every Exchange if the feature is not desired.

(tick)

 

writeResultAsHeader

false

Available as of Camel 2.10.3 and 2.11: In write operations (save, update, insert, etc.), instead of replacing the body with the WriteResult object returned by MongoDB, keep the input body untouched and place the WriteResult in the CamelMongoWriteResult header (constant MongoDbConstants.WRITERESULT).

(tick)

 

DBCursor

outputType

DBObjectList  for for findAll
DBObject  for for all other operations

Available as of Camel 2.16 : Convert the output of the producer to the selected type : "DBObjectList", "DBObject" or "DBCursor" :
DBObjectList or DBCursor (may be useful to stream the output) applies to findAll.
DBObject applies to all other operations.

 

(tick)

 

persistentTailTracking

false

Enables or disables persistent tail tracking for Tailable Cursor consumers. See below for more information.

 

(tick)

persistentId

none

Required if persistent tail tracking is enabled. The id of this persistent tail tracker, to separate its records from the rest on the tail-tracking collection.

 

(tick)

tailTrackingIncreasingField

none

Required if persistent tail tracking is enabled. Correlation field in the incoming record which is of increasing nature and will be used to position the tailing cursor every time it is generated. The cursor will be (re)created with a query of type: tailTrackIncreasingField > lastValue (where lastValue is possibly recovered from persistent tail tracking). Can be of type Integer, Date, String, etc. NOTE: No support for dot notation at the current time, so the field should be at the top level of the document.

 

(tick)

cursorRegenerationDelay

1000ms

Establishes how long the endpoint will wait to regenerate the cursor after it has been killed by the MongoDB server (normal behaviour).

 

(tick)

tailTrackDb

same as endpoint's

Database on which the persistent tail tracker will store its runtime information.

 

(tick)

tailTrackCollection

camelTailTracking

Collection on which the persistent tail tracker will store its runtime information.

 

(tick)

tailTrackField

lastTrackingValue

Field in which the persistent tail tracker will store the last tracked value.

MongoDB operations - producer endpoints

Query operations

findById

This operation retrieves only one element from the collection whose _id field matches the content of the IN message body. The incoming object can be anything that has an equivalent to a BSON type. See http://bsonspec.org/#/specification and http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Java+Types.

Code Block
from("direct:findById")
    .to("mongodb:myDb?database=flights&collection=tickets&operation=findById")
    .to("mock:resultFindById");
Tip
titleSupports fields filter

This operation supports specifying a fields filter. See Specifying a fields filter.

findOneByQuery

Use this operation to retrieve just one element from the collection that matches a MongoDB query. The query object is extracted from the IN message body, i.e. it should be of type DBObject or convertible to DBObject. It can be a JSON String or a Hashmap. See #Type conversions for more info.

Example with no query (returns any object of the collection):

Code Block
from("direct:findOneByQuery")
    .to("mongodb:myDb?database=flights&collection=tickets&operation=findOneByQuery")
    .to("mock:resultFindOneByQuery");

Example with a query (returns one matching result):

Code Block
from("direct:findOneByQueryfindById")
    .setBody().constant("{ \"name\": \"Raul Kripalani\" }")
    .to("mongodb:to("mongodb:myDb?database=flights&collection=tickets&operation=findOneByQueryfindById")
    .to("mock:resultFindOneByQueryresultFindById");

findOneByQuery

The findAll operation returns all documents matching a query, or none at all, in which case all documents contained in the collection are returnedUse this operation to retrieve just one element from the collection that matches a MongoDB query. The query object is extracted from the IN message body, i.e. it should be of type DBObject or convertible to DBObject. It can be a JSON String or a Hashmap. See #Type conversions for more info.

Example with no query (returns all any object in of the collection):

Code Block
from("direct:findAllfindOneByQuery")
    .to("mongodb:myDb?database=flights&collection=tickets&operation=findAllfindOneByQuery")
    .to("mock:resultFindAllresultFindOneByQuery");

Example with a query (returns all one matching resultsresult):

Code Block
from("direct:findAllfindOneByQuery")
    .setBody().constant("{ \"name\": \"Raul Kripalani\" }")
    .to("mongodb:myDb?database=flights&collection=tickets&operation=findAllfindOneByQuery")
    .to("mock:resultFindAllresultFindOneByQuery");

Paging and efficient retrieval is supported via the following headers:

Header key

Quick constant

Description (extracted from MongoDB API doc)

Expected type

CamelMongoDbNumToSkip

MongoDbConstants.NUM_TO_SKIP

Discards a given number of elements at the beginning of the cursor.

int/Integer

CamelMongoDbLimit

MongoDbConstants.LIMIT

Limits the number of elements returned.

int/Integer

CamelMongoDbBatchSize

MongoDbConstants.BATCH_SIZE

Limits the number of elements returned in one batch. A cursor typically fetches a batch of result objects and store them locally. If batchSize is positive, it represents the size of each batch of objects retrieved. It can be adjusted to optimize performance and limit data transfer. If batchSize is negative, it will limit of number objects returned, that fit within the max batch size limit (usually 4MB), and cursor will be closed. For example if batchSize is -10, then the server will return a maximum of 10 documents and as many as can fit in 4MB, then close the cursor. Note that this feature is different from limit() in that documents must fit within a maximum size, and it removes the need to send a request to close the cursor server-side. The batch size can be changed even after a cursor is iterated, in which case the setting will apply on the next batch retrieval.

findAll

The findAll operation returns all documents matching a query. If your query is empty, all of the documents stored will match and be returned. The query object is extracted from the IN message body, i.e. it should be of type DBObject or convertible to DBObject. It can be a JSON String or a Hashmap. See #Type conversions for more info.

Example with no query (returns all documents in the collection):

Code Block
from("direct:findAll")
    .to("mongodb:myDb?database=flights&collection=tickets&operation=findAll")
    .to("mock:resultFindAll");

Example with a query (returns all matching documents):

Code Block
from("direct:findAll")
    .setBody().constant("{ \"name\": \"Raul Kripalani\" }")
    .to("mongodb:myDb?database=flights&collection=tickets&operation=findAll")
    .to("mock:resultFindAll");

The batch size can be changed even after a cursor is iterated, in which case the setting will apply on the next batch retrieval.

int/Integer

You can also "stream" the documents returned from the server into your route by including outputType=DBCursor (Camel 2.16+) as an endpoint option which may prove simpler than setting the above headers. This hands your Exchange the DBCursor from the Mongo driver, just as if you were executing the findAll() within the Mongo shell, allowing your route to iterate over the results. By default and without this option, this component will load the documents from the driver's cursor into a List and return this to your route - which may result in a large number of in-memory objects. Remember, with a DBCursor do not ask for the number of documents matched - see the MongoDB documentation site for details.

Additionally, you can set a sortBy criteria by putting the relevant DBObject describing your sorting in the CamelMongoDbSortBy header, quick constant: MongoDbConstants.SORT_BY.
