camel-ehcache-kafka-connector sink configuration

Connector Description: Perform caching operations using Ehcache.

When using camel-ehcache-kafka-connector as sink make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for the connector:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-ehcache-kafka-connector</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <!-- use the same version as your Camel Kafka connector version -->
</dependency>

To use this Sink connector in Kafka connect you’ll need to set the following connector.class

connector.class=org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector.ehcache.CamelEhcacheSinkConnector

The camel-ehcache sink connector supports 24 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Required Priority

camel.sink.path.cacheName

the cache name

null

true

HIGH

camel.sink.endpoint.cacheManager

The cache manager

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.cacheManagerConfiguration

The cache manager configuration

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.configurationUri

URI pointing to the Ehcache XML configuration file’s location

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.createCacheIfNotExist

Configure if a cache need to be created if it does exist or can’t be pre-configured.

true

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.action

To configure the default cache action. If an action is set in the message header, then the operation from the header takes precedence.

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.key

To configure the default action key. If a key is set in the message header, then the key from the header takes precedence.

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.lazyStartProducer

Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing.

false

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.configuration

The default cache configuration to be used to create caches.

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.configurations

A map of cache configuration to be used to create caches.

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.keyType

The cache key type, default java.lang.Object

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.valueType

The cache value type, default java.lang.Object

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.component.ehcache.cacheManager

The cache manager

camel.component.ehcache.cacheManagerConfiguration

The cache manager configuration

camel.component.ehcache.createCacheIfNotExist

MEDIUM

camel.component.ehcache.autowiredEnabled

Whether autowiring is enabled. This is used for automatic autowiring options (the option must be marked as autowired) by looking up in the registry to find if there is a single instance of matching type, which then gets configured on the component. This can be used for automatic configuring JDBC data sources, JMS connection factories, AWS Clients, etc.
