camel-slack-kafka-connector sink configuration

Connector Description: Send and receive messages to/from Slack.

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

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

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

connector.class=org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector.slack.CamelSlackSinkConnector

The camel-slack sink connector supports 11 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Priority

camel.sink.path.channel

Required The channel name (syntax #name) or slackuser (syntax userName) to send a message directly to an user.

HIGH

camel.sink.endpoint.token

The token to use.

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.iconEmoji

Use a Slack emoji as an avatar.

LOW

camel.sink.endpoint.iconUrl

The avatar that the component will use when sending message to a channel or user.

LOW

camel.sink.endpoint.lazyStartProducer

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

MEDIUM

camel.sink.endpoint.username

This is the username that the bot will have when sending messages to a channel or user.

LOW

camel.sink.endpoint.webhookUrl

The incoming webhook URL.

MEDIUM

camel.component.slack.lazyStartProducer

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

MEDIUM

camel.component.slack.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.
