Flatpack

Flatpack Component

The Flatpack component supports fixed width and delimited file parsing via the FlatPack library.

URI format

flatpack:[delim|fixed]:flatPackConfig.pzmap.xml

or for a delimited file handler with no configuration file just use

flatpack:someName

Examples

• flatpack:fixed:foo.pzmap.xml creates a fixed width endpoint using the foo.pzmap.xml file configuration
• flatpack:delim:bar.pzmap.xml creates a delimited endpoint using the bar.pzmap.xml file configuration
• flatpack:foo creates a delimited endpoint called foo with no file configuration

URI Options

Using the endpoint

A common use case is sending a file to this endpoint for further processing in a separate route. For example...

  <camelContext xmlns="http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring">
    <route>
      <from uri="file://someDirectory"/>
      <to uri="flatpack:foo"/>
    </route>

    <route>
      <from uri="flatpack:foo"/>
      ...
    </route>
  </camelContext>

You can also convert the payload of each message created to a Map for easy Bean Integration
