camel-mongodb-source-kafka-connector source configuration

Connector Description: Consume documents from MongoDB. If the persistentTailTracking option will be enabled, the consumer will keep track of the last consumed message and on the next restart, the consumption will restart from that message. In case of persistentTailTracking enabled, the tailTrackIncreasingField must be provided (by default it is optional). If the persistentTailTracking option won’t be enabled, the consumer will consume the whole collection and wait in idle for new documents to consume.
