camel-quickfix-kafka-connector source configuration

Connector Description: Open a Financial Interchange (FIX) session using an embedded QuickFix/J engine.

When using camel-quickfix-kafka-connector as source make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for the connector:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-quickfix-kafka-connector</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <!-- use the same version as your Camel Kafka connector version -->
</dependency>

To use this source connector in Kafka connect you’ll need to set the following connector.class

connector.class=org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector.quickfix.CamelQuickfixSourceConnector

The camel-quickfix source connector supports 12 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Priority

camel.source.path.configurationName

Required Path to the quickfix configuration file. You can prefix with: classpath, file, http, ref, or bean. classpath, file and http loads the configuration file using these protocols (classpath is default). ref will lookup the configuration file in the registry. bean will call a method on a bean to be used as the configuration. For bean you can specify the method name after dot, eg bean:myBean.myMethod.

HIGH

camel.source.endpoint.lazyCreateEngine

This option allows to create QuickFIX/J engine on demand. Value true means the engine is started when first message is send or there’s consumer configured in route definition. When false value is used, the engine is started at the endpoint creation. When this parameter is missing, the value of component’s property lazyCreateEngines is being used.

false

MEDIUM

camel.source.endpoint.sessionID

The optional sessionID identifies a specific FIX session. The format of the sessionID is: (BeginString):(SenderCompID)/(SenderSubID)/(SenderLocationID)-(TargetCompID)/(TargetSubID)/(TargetLocationID).

MEDIUM

camel.source.endpoint.bridgeErrorHandler

Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. 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

MEDIUM

camel.source.endpoint.exceptionHandler

To let the consumer use a custom ExceptionHandler. Notice if the option bridgeErrorHandler is enabled then this option is not in use. By default the consumer will deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored.

MEDIUM

camel.source.endpoint.exchangePattern

Sets the exchange pattern when the consumer creates an exchange. One of: [InOnly] [InOut] [InOptionalOut].

Enum values:

  • InOnly

  • InOut

  • InOptionalOut

MEDIUM

camel.component.quickfix.lazyCreateEngines

If set to true, the engines will be created and started when needed (when first message is send).

false

MEDIUM

camel.component.quickfix.bridgeErrorHandler

Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. 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

MEDIUM

camel.component.quickfix.autowiredEnabled

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

MEDIUM

camel.component.quickfix.logFactory

To use the given LogFactory.

MEDIUM

camel.component.quickfix.messageFactory

To use the given MessageFactory.

MEDIUM

camel.component.quickfix.messageStoreFactory

To use the given MessageStoreFactory.
