twitter-directmessage-source-pipe.yaml
apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1
kind: Pipe
metadata:
  name: twitter-directmessage-source-pipe
spec:
  source:
    ref:
      kind: Kamelet
      apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1
      name: twitter-directmessage-source
    properties:

      apiKey: The API Key
      apiKeySecret: The API Key Secret
      user: ApacheCamel
  sink:
    ref:
      kind: Channel
      apiVersion: messaging.knative.dev/v1
      name: mychannel

Prerequisite

You have Camel K installed on the cluster.

  2. Run the source by using the following command:

    kubectl apply -f twitter-directmessage-source-pipe.yaml

Procedure for using the Kamel CLI

Configure and run the source by using the following command:

kamel bind channel:mychannel -p "source.accessToken=The Access Token" -p "source.accessTokenSecret=The Access Token Secret" -p "source.apiKey=The API Key" -p "source.apiKeySecret=The API Key Secret" -p "source.user=ApacheCamel" twitter-directmessage-source

This command creates the Kamelet Pipe in the current namespace on the cluster.
