File

Since Camel 1.1

The File Expression Language is an extension to the Simple language, adding file related capabilities. These capabilities are related to common use cases working with file path and names. The goal is to allow expressions to be used with the File and FTP components for setting dynamic file patterns for both consumer and producer.

The file language is merged with Simple language, which means you can use all the file syntax directly within the simple language.

File Language options

The File language supports 2 options, which are listed below.

Name Default Java Type Description

Name	Default	Java Type	Description
resultType (common)		`String`	Sets the class of the result type (type from output).
trim (advanced)	`true`	`Boolean`	Whether to trim the value to remove leading and trailing whitespaces and line breaks.

resultType (common)

String

Sets the class of the result type (type from output).

trim (advanced)

true

Boolean

Whether to trim the value to remove leading and trailing whitespaces and line breaks.

Syntax

This language is an extension to the Simple language, so the Simple syntax applies also. So the table below only lists the additional file related functions.

All the file tokens use the same expression name as the method on the java.io.File object, for instance file:absolute refers to the java.io.File.getAbsolute() method. Notice that not all expressions are supported by the current Exchange. For instance, the FTP component supports some options, whereas the File component supports all of them.

Expression Type File Consumer File Producer FTP Consumer FTP Producer Description

Expression	Type	File Consumer	File Producer	FTP Consumer	FTP Producer	Description
file:name	String	yes	no	yes	no	refers to the file name (is relative to the starting directory, see note below)
file:name.ext	String	yes	no	yes	no	refers to the file extension only
file:name.ext.single	String	yes	no	yes	no	refers to the file extension. If the file extension has multiple dots, then this expression strips and only returns the last part.

file:name.noext.single	String	yes	no	yes	no	refers to the file name with no extension (is relative to the starting directory, see note below). If the file name has multiple dots, then this expression strips only the last part, and keeps the others.
file:onlyname	String	yes	no	yes	no	refers to the file name only with no leading paths.
file:onlyname.noext	String	yes	no	yes	no	refers to the file name only with no extension and with no leading paths.

File token example

Relative paths

We have a java.io.File handle for the file hello.txt in the following relative directory: ./filelanguage/test. And we configure our endpoint to use this starting directory ./filelanguage. The file tokens will return as:

Expression	Returns
file:name	test/hello.txt
file:name.ext	txt
file:name.noext	test/hello
file:onlyname	hello.txt
file:onlyname.noext	hello
file:ext	txt
file:parent	filelanguage/test
file:path	filelanguage/test/hello.txt
file:absolute	false
file:absolute.path	/workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage/test/hello.txt

Expression

Returns

file:name

test/hello.txt

file:name.ext

txt

file:name.noext

test/hello

file:onlyname

hello.txt

file:onlyname.noext

hello

file:ext

txt

file:parent

filelanguage/test

file:path

filelanguage/test/hello.txt

file:absolute

false

file:absolute.path

/workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage/test/hello.txt

Absolute paths

We have a java.io.File handle for the file hello.txt in the following absolute directory: /workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage/test. And we configure the out endpoint to use the absolute starting directory /workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage. The file tokens will return as:

Expression	Returns
file:name	test/hello.txt
file:name.ext	txt
file:name.noext	test/hello
file:onlyname	hello.txt
file:onlyname.noext	hello
file:ext	txt
file:parent	/workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage/test
file:path	/workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage/test/hello.txt
file:absolute	true
file:absolute.path	/workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage/test/hello.txt

Expression

Returns

file:name

test/hello.txt

file:name.ext

txt

file:name.noext

test/hello

file:onlyname

hello.txt

file:onlyname.noext

hello

file:ext

txt

file:parent

/workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage/test

file:path

/workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage/test/hello.txt

file:absolute

true

file:absolute.path

/workspace/camel/camel-core/target/filelanguage/test/hello.txt

Examples

You can enter a fixed file name such as myfile.txt:

fileName="myfile.txt"

Let’s assume we use the file consumer to read files and want to move the read files to back up folder with the current date as a subfolder. This can be done using an expression like:

fileName="backup/${date:now:yyyyMMdd}/${file:name.noext}.bak"

relative folder names are also supported so suppose the backup folder should be a sibling folder then you can append .. as shown:

fileName="../backup/${date:now:yyyyMMdd}/${file:name.noext}.bak"

As this is an extension to the Simple language, we have access to all the goodies from this language also, so in this use case we want to use the in.header.type as a parameter in the dynamic expression:

fileName="../backup/${date:now:yyyyMMdd}/type-${in.header.type}/backup-of-${file:name.noext}.bak"

If you have a custom date you want to use in the expression, then Camel supports retrieving dates from the message header:

fileName="orders/order-${in.header.customerId}-${date:in.header.orderDate:yyyyMMdd}.xml"

And finally, we can also use a bean expression to invoke a POJO class that generates some String output (or convertible to String) to be used:

fileName="uniquefile-${bean:myguidgenerator.generateid}.txt"

Of course, all this can be combined in one expression where you can use the File Language, Simple and the Bean language in one combined expression. This is pretty powerful for those common file path patterns.

If bulkhead has space available, entry is guaranteed and immediate. If bulkhead is full, calling threads will contest for space, if it becomes available. maxWaitDuration can be set to 0. Note: for threads running on an event-loop or equivalent (rx computation pool, etc), setting maxWaitDuration to 0 is highly recommended. Blocking an event-loop thread will most likely have a negative effect on application throughput.	0	Integer
camel.resilience4j.circuit-breaker	Refers to an existing io.github.resilience4j.circuitbreaker.CircuitBreaker instance to lookup and use from the registry. When using this, then any other circuit breaker options are not in use.		String

camel.resilience4j.failure-rate-threshold	Configures the failure rate threshold in percentage. If the failure rate is equal or greater than the threshold the CircuitBreaker transitions to open and starts short-circuiting calls. The threshold must be greater than 0 and not greater than 100. Default value is 50 percentage.		Float
camel.resilience4j.ignore-exception	Configure a list of exceptions that are ignored and neither count as a failure nor success. Any exception matching or inheriting from one of the list will not count as a failure nor success, even if the exceptions is part of recordExceptions.		List
camel.resilience4j.minimum-number-of-calls	Configures the minimum number of calls which are required (per sliding window period) before the CircuitBreaker can calculate the error rate. For example, if minimumNumberOfCalls is 10, then at least 10 calls must be recorded, before the failure rate can be calculated. If only 9 calls have been recorded the CircuitBreaker will not transition to open even if all 9 calls have failed. Default minimumNumberOfCalls is 100.	100	Integer
camel.resilience4j.permitted-number-of-calls-in-half-open-state	Configures the number of permitted calls when the CircuitBreaker is half open. The size must be greater than 0. Default size is 10.	10	Integer
camel.resilience4j.record-exception	Configure a list of exceptions that are recorded as a failure and thus increase the failure rate. Any exception matching or inheriting from one of the list counts as a failure, unless explicitly ignored via ignoreExceptions.		List
camel.resilience4j.sliding-window-size	Configures the size of the sliding window which is used to record the outcome of calls when the CircuitBreaker is closed. slidingWindowSize configures the size of the sliding window. Sliding window can either be count-based or time-based. If slidingWindowType is COUNT_BASED, the last slidingWindowSize calls are recorded and aggregated. If slidingWindowType is TIME_BASED, the calls of the last slidingWindowSize seconds are recorded and aggregated. The slidingWindowSize must be greater than 0. The minimumNumberOfCalls must be greater than 0. If the slidingWindowType is COUNT_BASED, the minimumNumberOfCalls cannot be greater than slidingWindowSize . If the slidingWindowType is TIME_BASED, you can pick whatever you want. Default slidingWindowSize is 100.	100	Integer
camel.resilience4j.sliding-window-type	Configures the type of the sliding window which is used to record the outcome of calls when the CircuitBreaker is closed. Sliding window can either be count-based or time-based. If slidingWindowType is COUNT_BASED, the last slidingWindowSize calls are recorded and aggregated. If slidingWindowType is TIME_BASED, the calls of the last slidingWindowSize seconds are recorded and aggregated. Default slidingWindowType is COUNT_BASED.	COUNT_BASED	String
camel.resilience4j.slow-call-duration-threshold	Configures the duration threshold (seconds) above which calls are considered as slow and increase the slow calls percentage. Default value is 60 seconds.	60	Integer
camel.resilience4j.slow-call-rate-threshold	Configures a threshold in percentage. The CircuitBreaker considers a call as slow when the call duration is greater than slowCallDurationThreshold Duration. When the percentage of slow calls is equal or greater the threshold, the CircuitBreaker transitions to open and starts short-circuiting calls. The threshold must be greater than 0 and not greater than 100. Default value is 100 percentage which means that all recorded calls must be slower than slowCallDurationThreshold.		Float
camel.resilience4j.throw-exception-when-half-open-or-open-state	Whether to throw io.github.resilience4j.circuitbreaker.CallNotPermittedException when the call is rejected due circuit breaker is half open or open.	false	Boolean

camel.resilience4j.timeout-duration	Configures the thread execution timeout. Default value is 1 second.	1000	Integer
camel.resilience4j.timeout-enabled	Whether timeout is enabled or not on the circuit breaker. Default is false.	false	Boolean
camel.resilience4j.timeout-executor-service	References to a custom thread pool to use when timeout is enabled (uses ForkJoinPool#commonPool() by default).		ExecutorService
camel.resilience4j.wait-duration-in-open-state	Configures the wait duration (in seconds) which specifies how long the CircuitBreaker should stay open, before it switches to half open. Default value is 60 seconds.	60	Integer
camel.resilience4j.writable-stack-trace-enabled	Enables writable stack traces. When set to false, Exception.getStackTrace returns a zero length array. This may be used to reduce log spam when the circuit breaker is open as the cause of the exceptions is already known (the circuit breaker is short-circuiting calls).	true	Boolean
camel.rest.api-component	The name of the Camel component to use as the REST API. If no API Component has been explicit configured, then Camel will lookup if there is a Camel component responsible for servicing and generating the REST API documentation, or if a org.apache.camel.spi.RestApiProcessorFactory is registered in the registry. If either one is found, then that is being used.		String
camel.rest.api-context-path	Sets a leading context-path the REST API will be using. This can be used when using components such as camel-servlet where the deployed web application is deployed using a context-path.		String
camel.rest.api-context-route-id	Sets the route id to use for the route that services the REST API. The route will by default use an auto assigned route id.		String
camel.rest.api-host	To use a specific hostname for the API documentation (such as swagger or openapi) This can be used to override the generated host with this configured hostname.		String
camel.rest.api-property	Allows to configure as many additional properties for the api documentation. For example set property api.title to my cool stuff.		Map
camel.rest.api-vendor-extension	Whether vendor extension is enabled in the Rest APIs. If enabled then Camel will include additional information as vendor extension (eg keys starting with x-) such as route ids, class names etc. Not all 3rd party API gateways and tools supports vendor-extensions when importing your API docs.	false	Boolean
camel.rest.binding-mode	Sets the binding mode to use. The default value is off.		RestBindingMode
camel.rest.binding-package-scan	Package name to use as base (offset) for classpath scanning of POJO classes are located when using binding mode is enabled for JSon or XML. Multiple package names can be separated by comma.		String
camel.rest.client-request-validation	Whether to enable validation of the client request to check: 1) Content-Type header matches what the Rest DSL consumes; returns HTTP Status 415 if validation error. 2) Accept header matches what the Rest DSL produces; returns HTTP Status 406 if validation error. 3) Missing required data (query parameters, HTTP headers, body); returns HTTP Status 400 if validation error. 4) Parsing error of the message body (JSon, XML or Auto binding mode must be enabled); returns HTTP Status 400 if validation error.	false	Boolean
camel.rest.component	The Camel Rest component to use for the REST transport (consumer), such as netty-http, jetty, servlet, undertow. If no component has been explicit configured, then Camel will lookup if there is a Camel component that integrates with the Rest DSL, or if a org.apache.camel.spi.RestConsumerFactory is registered in the registry. If either one is found, then that is being used.		String
camel.rest.component-property	Allows to configure as many additional properties for the rest component in use.		Map
camel.rest.consumer-property	Allows to configure as many additional properties for the rest consumer in use.		Map
camel.rest.context-path	Sets a leading context-path the REST services will be using. This can be used when using components such as camel-servlet where the deployed web application is deployed using a context-path. Or for components such as camel-jetty or camel-netty-http that includes a HTTP server.		String
camel.rest.cors-headers	Allows to configure custom CORS headers.		Map
camel.rest.data-format-property	Allows to configure as many additional properties for the data formats in use. For example set property prettyPrint to true to have json outputted in pretty mode. The properties can be prefixed to denote the option is only for either JSON or XML and for either the IN or the OUT. The prefixes are: json.in. json.out. xml.in. xml.out. For example a key with value xml.out.mustBeJAXBElement is only for the XML data format for the outgoing. A key without a prefix is a common key for all situations.		Map
camel.rest.enable-cors	Whether to enable CORS headers in the HTTP response. The default value is false.	false	Boolean
camel.rest.enable-no-content-response	Whether to return HTTP 204 with an empty body when a response contains an empty JSON object or XML root object. The default value is false.	false	Boolean
camel.rest.endpoint-property	Allows to configure as many additional properties for the rest endpoint in use.		Map
camel.rest.host	The hostname to use for exposing the REST service.		String
camel.rest.host-name-resolver	If no hostname has been explicit configured, then this resolver is used to compute the hostname the REST service will be using.		RestHostNameResolver
camel.rest.inline-routes	Inline routes in rest-dsl which are linked using direct endpoints. Each service in Rest DSL is an individual route, meaning that you would have at least two routes per service (rest-dsl, and the route linked from rest-dsl). By inlining (default) allows Camel to optimize and inline this as a single route, however this requires to use direct endpoints, which must be unique per service. If a route is not using direct endpoint then the rest-dsl is not inlined, and will become an individual route. This option is default true.	true	Boolean
camel.rest.json-data-format	Name of specific json data format to use. By default jackson will be used. Important: This option is only for setting a custom name of the data format, not to refer to an existing data format instance.		String
camel.rest.port	The port number to use for exposing the REST service. Notice if you use servlet component then the port number configured here does not apply, as the port number in use is the actual port number the servlet component is using. eg if using Apache Tomcat its the tomcat http port, if using Apache Karaf its the HTTP service in Karaf that uses port 8181 by default etc. Though in those situations setting the port number here, allows tooling and JMX to know the port number, so its recommended to set the port number to the number that the servlet engine uses.		String
camel.rest.producer-api-doc	Sets the location of the api document the REST producer will use to validate the REST uri and query parameters are valid accordingly to the api document. The location of the api document is loaded from classpath by default, but you can use file: or http: to refer to resources to load from file or http url.		String
camel.rest.producer-component	Sets the name of the Camel component to use as the REST producer.		String
camel.rest.scheme	The scheme to use for exposing the REST service. Usually http or https is supported. The default value is http.		String
camel.rest.skip-binding-on-error-code	Whether to skip binding on output if there is a custom HTTP error code header. This allows to build custom error messages that do not bind to json / xml etc, as success messages otherwise will do.	false	Boolean
camel.rest.use-x-forward-headers	Whether to use X-Forward headers to set host etc. for OpenApi. This may be needed in special cases involving reverse-proxy and networking going from HTTP to HTTPS etc. Then the proxy can send X-Forward headers (X-Forwarded-Proto) that influences the host names in the OpenAPI schema that camel-openapi-java generates from Rest DSL routes.	false	Boolean
camel.rest.xml-data-format	Name of specific XML data format to use. By default jaxb will be used. Important: This option is only for setting a custom name of the data format, not to refer to an existing data format instance.		String

Configure a list of exceptions that are ignored and neither count as a failure nor success. Any exception matching or inheriting from one of the list will not count as a failure nor success, even if the exceptions is part of recordExceptions.

List

camel.resilience4j.minimum-number-of-calls

Configures the minimum number of calls which are required (per sliding window period) before the CircuitBreaker can calculate the error rate. For example, if minimumNumberOfCalls is 10, then at least 10 calls must be recorded, before the failure rate can be calculated.

List

camel.resilience4j.sliding-window-size

Configures the size of the sliding window which is used to record the outcome of calls when the CircuitBreaker is closed. slidingWindowSize configures the size of the sliding window. Sliding window can either be count-based or time-based. If slidingWindowType is COUNT_BASED, the last slidingWindowSize calls are recorded and aggregated. If slidingWindowType is TIME_BASED, the calls of the last slidingWindowSize seconds are recorded and aggregated. The slidingWindowSize must be greater than 0. The minimumNumberOfCalls must be greater than 0. If the slidingWindowType is COUNT_BASED, the minimumNumberOfCalls cannot be greater than slidingWindowSize . If the slidingWindowType is TIME_BASED, you can pick whatever you want. Default slidingWindowSize is 100.

100

Integer

camel.resilience4j.sliding-window-type

Configures the type of the sliding window which is used to record the outcome of calls when the CircuitBreaker is closed. Sliding window can either be count-based or time-based. If slidingWindowType is COUNT_BASED, the last slidingWindowSize calls are recorded and aggregated. If slidingWindowType is TIME_BASED, the calls of the last slidingWindowSize seconds are recorded and aggregated. Default slidingWindowType is COUNT_BASED.

COUNT_BASED

String

camel.resilience4j.slow-call-duration-threshold

Configures the duration threshold (seconds) above which calls are considered as slow and increase the slow calls percentage. Default value is 60 seconds.

Integer

camel.resilience4j.slow-call-rate-threshold

Configures a threshold in percentage. The CircuitBreaker considers a call as slow when the call duration is greater than slowCallDurationThreshold Duration. When the percentage of slow calls is equal or greater the threshold, the CircuitBreaker transitions to open and starts short-circuiting calls. The threshold must be greater than 0 and not greater than 100. Default value is 100 percentage which means that all recorded calls must be slower than slowCallDurationThreshold.

Float

Integer

camel.resilience4j.writable-stack-trace-enabled

Enables writable stack traces. When set to false, Exception.getStackTrace returns a zero length array. This may be used to reduce log spam when the circuit breaker is open as the cause of the exceptions is already known (the circuit breaker is short-circuiting calls).

true

Boolean

false

Boolean

camel.rest.component

The Camel Rest component to use for the REST transport (consumer), such as netty-http, jetty, servlet, undertow. If no component has been explicit configured, then Camel will lookup if there is a Camel component that integrates with the Rest DSL, or if a org.apache.camel.spi.RestConsumerFactory is registered in the registry.

Allows to configure as many additional properties for the rest component in use.

Map

camel.rest.consumer-property

Allows to configure as many additional properties for the rest consumer in use.

Map

Allows to configure custom CORS headers.

Map

camel.rest.data-format-property

Allows to configure as many additional properties for the data formats in use. For example set property prettyPrint to true to have json outputted in pretty mode. The properties can be prefixed to denote the option is only for either JSON or XML and for either the IN or the OUT. The prefixes are: json.in. json.out. xml.in. xml.out. For example a key with value xml.out.mustBeJAXBElement is only for the XML data format for the outgoing. A key without a prefix is a common key for all situations.

Map

camel.rest.enable-cors

Whether to enable CORS headers in the HTTP response. The default value is false.

false

Boolean

camel.rest.enable-no-content-response

Whether to return HTTP 204 with an empty body when a response contains an empty JSON object or XML root object. The default value is false.

If no hostname has been explicit configured, then this resolver is used to compute the hostname the REST service will be using.

RestHostNameResolver

camel.rest.inline-routes

Inline routes in rest-dsl which are linked using direct endpoints. Each service in Rest DSL is an individual route, meaning that you would have at least two routes per service (rest-dsl, and the route linked from rest-dsl). By inlining (default) allows Camel to optimize and inline this as a single route, however this requires to use direct endpoints, which must be unique per service. If a route is not using direct endpoint then the rest-dsl is not inlined, and will become an individual route. This option is default true.

true

Boolean

camel.rest.json-data-format

Name of specific json data format to use. By default jackson will be used. Important: This option is only for setting a custom name of the data format, not to refer to an existing data format instance.

String

camel.rest.port

The port number to use for exposing the REST service. Notice if you use servlet component then the port number configured here does not apply, as the port number in use is the actual port number the servlet component is using. eg if using Apache Tomcat its the tomcat http port, if using Apache Karaf its the HTTP service in Karaf that uses port 8181 by default etc. Though in those situations setting the port number here, allows tooling and JMX to know the port number, so its recommended to set the port number to the number that the servlet engine uses.

String

camel.rest.producer-api-doc

Sets the location of the api document the REST producer will use to validate the REST uri and query parameters are valid accordingly to the api document. The location of the api document is loaded from classpath by default, but you can use file: or http: to refer to resources to load from file or http url.

String

camel.rest.producer-component

Sets the name of the Camel component to use as the REST producer.

false

Boolean

camel.rest.use-x-forward-headers

Whether to use X-Forward headers to set host etc. for OpenApi. This may be needed in special cases involving reverse-proxy and networking going from HTTP to HTTPS etc. Then the proxy can send X-Forward headers (X-Forwarded-Proto) that influences the host names in the OpenAPI schema that camel-openapi-java generates from Rest DSL routes.

false

Boolean

camel.rest.xml-data-format

Name of specific XML data format to use. By default jaxb will be used. Important: This option is only for setting a custom name of the data format, not to refer to an existing data format instance.
