The camel-fop sink connector supports 6 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Required Priority

camel.sink.path.outputType

The primary output format is PDF but other output formats are also supported. One of: [pdf] [ps] [pcl] [png] [jpeg] [svg] [xml] [mif] [rtf] [txt]

null

true

HIGH

camel.sink.endpoint.fopFactory

Allows to use a custom configured or implementation of org.apache.fop.apps.FopFactory.

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.userConfigURL

The location of a configuration file which can be loaded from classpath or file system.

null

false

MEDIUM

camel.component.fop.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

MEDIUM

camel.component.fop.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.
