Apache Camel 3.x Upgrade Guide

This document is for helping you upgrade your Apache Camel application from Camel 3.x to 3.y. For example if you are upgrading Camel 3.0 to 3.2, then you should follow the guides from both 3.0 to 3.1 and 3.1 to 3.2.

Upgrading Camel 3.14.x to 3.14.10

The option synchronous in camel-ftp has been removed, as this is always enabled to ensure thread safety for the underlying FTP client.

Upgrading Camel 3.13 to 3.14

API changes

Added method updateRoutesToCamelContext to org.apache.camel.RoutesBuilder interface.

Added parameter Resource in createRoute method on org.apache.camel.spi.RouteFactory.

Added method reloadProperties to org.apache.camel.spi.LoadablePropertiesSource.

Removed the deprecated headerName option from RemoveHeader EIP. Use name instead.

camel-kafka

The APIs in camel-kafka component changed from using the Kafka Client classes org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.KafkaProducer and org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.KafkaConsumer to their interfaces org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.Producer and org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.Consumer instead.

The option KafkaManualCommitFactory on component is now autowired, if there exists a single custom factory in the registry.

camel-jbang

The option debug-level has been renamed to logging-level because the option is for configuring the logging level.

camel-zookeeper/camel-master

When using Zookeeper with the Master component, the given namespace is now used to define leadership. In other words, a route defined with master:lock1 will result in one leader election, while a route defined with master:lock2 will result in a separate leader election, which may or may not result in the same leader as lock1. This matches the existing behavior of the Master component when using Consul.

camel-aws2-ses

The to and replyTo parameters are now comma separated String and no more List of Strings, this is true even for the related headers.
