JBI Component
The jbi component is implemented by the ServiceMix Camel module and provides integration with a JBI Normalized Message Router, such as the one provided by Apache ServiceMix.
See below for information about how to use StreamSource
types from ServiceMix in Camel.
The following code:
from("jbi:endpoint:http://foo.bar.org/MyService/MyEndpoint")
Automatically exposes a new endpoint to the bus, where the service QName is {http://foo.bar.org}MyService
and the endpoint name is MyEndpoint
(see #URI-format).
When a JBI endpoint appears at the end of a route, for example:
to("jbi:endpoint:http://foo.bar.org/MyService/MyEndpoint")
The messages sent by this producer endpoint are sent to the already deployed JBI endpoint.
URI format
jbi:service:serviceNamespace[sep]serviceName[?options] jbi:endpoint:serviceNamespace[sep]serviceName[sep]endpointName[?options] jbi:name:endpointName[?options]
The separator that should be used in the endpoint URL is:
/
(forward slash), ifserviceNamespace
starts withhttp://
, or:
(colon), ifserviceNamespace
starts withurn:foo:bar
.
For more details of valid JBI URIs see the ServiceMix URI Guide.
Using the jbi:service:
or jbi:endpoint:
URI formats sets the service QName on the JBI endpoint to the one specified. Otherwise, the default Camel JBI Service QName is used, which is:
{http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/jbi}endpoint
You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?option=value&option=value&...
Examples
jbi:service:http://foo.bar.org/MyService jbi:endpoint:urn:foo:bar:MyService:MyEndpoint jbi:endpoint:http://foo.bar.org/MyService/MyEndpoint jbi:name:cheese

Using Stream bodies
If you are using a stream type as the message body, you should be aware that a stream is only capable of being read once. So if you enable DEBUG
logging, the body is usually logged and thus read. To deal with this, Camel has a streamCaching
option that can cache the stream, enabling you to read it multiple times.
from("jbi:endpoint:http://foo.bar.org/MyService/MyEndpoint").streamCaching().to("xslt:transform.xsl", "bean:doSomething");
From Camel 1.5 onwards, the stream caching is default enabled, so it is not necessary to set the streamCaching()
option.
In Camel 2.0 we store big input streams (by default, over 64K) in a temp
file using CachedOutputStream
. When you close the input stream, the temp file will be deleted.
Creating a JBI Service Unit
If you have some Camel routes that you want to deploy inside JBI as a Service Unit, you can use the JBI Service Unit Archetype to create a new Maven project for the Service Unit.
If you have an existing Maven project that you need to convert into a JBI Service Unit, you may want to consult ServiceMix Maven JBI Plugins for further help. The key steps are as follows:
- Create a Spring XML file at
src/main/resources/camel-context.xml
to bootstrap your routes inside the JBI Service Unit. - Change the POM file's packaging to
jbi-service-unit
.
Your pom.xml
should look something like this to enable the jbi-service-unit
packaging:
