Additional Camel Quarkus configuration

This component is able to load xpath expressions from classpath resources. To make it work also in native mode, you need to explicitly embed the expression files in the native executable by using the quarkus.native.resources.includes property.

For instance, the route below would load an XPath expression from a classpath resource named myxpath.txt:

from("direct:start").transform().xpath("resource:classpath:myxpath.txt");

To include this (an possibly other expressions stored in .txt files) in the native image, you would have to add something like the following to your application.properties file:

quarkus.native.resources.includes = *.txt

More information about selecting resources for inclusion in the native executable can be found at Embedding resource in native executable.
