Name	Default Value	Description
basePath	`""`	API basePath for example /v2. Default is unset if set overrides the value present in Swagger specification.
componentName	null	Name of the Camel component that will perform the requests. The compnent must be present in Camel registry and it must implement RestProducerFactory service provider interface. If not set CLASSPATH is searched for single component that implements RestProducerFactory SPI. Can be overriden in endpoint configuration.
consumes	null	What payload type this component capable of consuming. Could be one type like application/json or multiple types as application/json application/xml; q=0.5 according to the RFC7231. This equates to the value of Accept HTTP header. If set overrides any value found in the Swagger specification. Can be overriden in endpoint configuration
host	null	Scheme hostname and port to direct the HTTP requests to in the form of http[s]://hostname:port. Can be configured at the endpoint component or in the correspoding REST configuration in the Camel Context. If you give this component a name (e.g. petstore) that REST configuration is consulted first rest-swagger next and global configuration last. If set overrides any value found in the Swagger specification RestConfiguration. Can be overriden in endpoint configuration.
produces	null	What payload type this component is producing. For example application/json according to the RFC7231. This equates to the value of Content-Type HTTP header. If set overrides any value present in the Swagger specification. Can be overriden in endpoint configuration.
specificationUri	"swagger.json"	Path to the Swagger specification file. The scheme host base path are taken from this specification but these can be overriden with properties on the component or endpoint level. If not given the component tries to load swagger.json resource. Can be overriden in endpoint configuration.
operationId		Endpoint only, the ID of the operation from the Swagger specification.

Example: PetStore

Checkout the example in the camel-example-rest-swagger project in the examples directory.

For example if you wanted to use the PetStore provided REST API simply reference the specification URI and desired operation id from the Swagger specification or download the specification and store it as swagger.json (in the root) of CLASSPATH that way it will be automaticaly used. Let’s use the Undertow component to perform all the requests and Camels excelent support for Spring Boot.

Here are our dependencies defined in Maven POM file:

Code Block

language	xml

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-undertow-starter</artifactId>
</dependency>

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-rest-swagger-starter</artifactId>
</dependency>

Start by defining the Undertow component and the RestSwaggerComponent:

Code Block

language	java

@Bean
public Component petstore(CamelContext camelContext, UndertowComponent undertow) {
    RestSwaggerComponent petstore = new RestSwaggerComponent(camelContext);
    petstore.setSpecificationUri("http://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json");
    petstore.setDelegate(undertow);

    return petstore;
}

NOTE: Support in Camel for Spring Boot will auto create the UndertowComponent Spring bean, and you can configure it using application.properties (or application.yml) using prefix camel.component.undertow.. We are defining the petstore component here in order to have a named component in the Camel context that we can use to interact with the PetStore REST API, if this is the only rest-swagger component used we might configure it in the same manner (using application.properties).

Now in our application we can simply use the ProducerTemplate to invoke PetStore REST methods:

Code Block

language	java

@Autowired
ProducerTemplate template;

String getPetJsonById(int petId) {
    return template.requestBodyAndHeaders("petstore:getPetById", null, "petId", petId);
}
