Spring Boot Auto-Configuration

The starter supports 10 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Type

camel.component.reactive-streams.autowired-enabled

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.

true

Boolean

camel.component.reactive-streams.backpressure-strategy

The backpressure strategy to use when pushing events to a slow subscriber.

camel.component.reactive-streams.bridge-error-handler

Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions (if possible) occurred while the Camel consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. Important: This is only possible if the 3rd party component allows Camel to be alerted if an exception was thrown. Some components handle this internally only, and therefore bridgeErrorHandler is not possible. In other situations we may improve the Camel component to hook into the 3rd party component and make this possible for future releases. By default the consumer will use the org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler to deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored.

false

Boolean

camel.component.reactive-streams.enabled

Whether to enable auto configuration of the reactive-streams component. This is enabled by default.

Boolean

camel.component.reactive-streams.lazy-start-producer

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

Boolean

camel.component.reactive-streams.reactive-streams-engine-configuration

To use an existing reactive stream engine configuration. The option is a org.apache.camel.component.reactive.streams.engine.ReactiveStreamsEngineConfiguration type.

ReactiveStreamsEngineConfiguration

camel.component.reactive-streams.service-type

Set the type of the underlying reactive streams implementation to use. The implementation is looked up from the registry or using a ServiceLoader, the default implementation is DefaultCamelReactiveStreamsService

String

camel.component.reactive-streams.thread-pool-max-size

The maximum number of threads used by the reactive streams internal engine.

10

Integer

camel.component.reactive-streams.thread-pool-min-size

The minimum number of threads used by the reactive streams internal engine.

Integer

camel.component.reactive-streams.thread-pool-name

The name of the thread pool used by the reactive streams internal engine.
