Huawei Object Storage Service (OBS)

Since Camel 3.12

Both producer and consumer are supported

Huawei Cloud Object Storage Service (OBS) component allows you to integrate with OBS provided by Huawei Cloud.

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
    <artifactId>camel-huaweicloud-obs</artifactId>
    <version>x.x.x</version>
    <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

URI Format

hwcloud-obs:operation[?options]

Configuring Options

Camel components are configured on two separate levels:

  • component level

  • endpoint level

Configuring Component Options

The component level is the highest level which holds general and common configurations that are inherited by the endpoints. For example a component may have security settings, credentials for authentication, urls for network connection and so forth.

Some components only have a few options, and others may have many. Because components typically have pre configured defaults that are commonly used, then you may often only need to configure a few options on a component; or none at all.

Configuring components can be done with the Component DSL, in a configuration file (application.properties|yaml), or directly with Java code.

Configuring Endpoint Options

Where you find yourself configuring the most is on endpoints, as endpoints often have many options, which allows you to configure what you need the endpoint to do. The options are also categorized into whether the endpoint is used as consumer (from) or as a producer (to), or used for both.

Configuring endpoints is most often done directly in the endpoint URI as path and query parameters. You can also use the Endpoint DSL as a type safe way of configuring endpoints.

A good practice when configuring options is to use Property Placeholders, which allows to not hardcode urls, port numbers, sensitive information, and other settings. In other words placeholders allows to externalize the configuration from your code, and gives more flexibility and reuse.

The following two sections lists all the options, firstly for the component followed by the endpoint.

Component Options

The Huawei Object Storage Service (OBS) component supports 3 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Type

bridgeErrorHandler (consumer)

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

boolean

lazyStartProducer (producer)

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

boolean

autowiredEnabled (advanced)

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

boolean

Endpoint Options

The Huawei Object Storage Service (OBS) endpoint is configured using URI syntax:

hwcloud-obs:operation

with the following path and query parameters:

String

bridgeErrorHandler (consumer)

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.

String

lazyStartProducer (producer)

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.

List of Supported OBS Operations

  • listBuckets

  • createBucket - bucketName parameter is required, bucketLocation parameter is optional

  • deleteBucket - bucketName parameter is required

  • checkBucketExists - bucketName parameter is required

  • getBucketMetadata - bucketName parameter is required

  • listObjects - bucketName parameter is required

  • getObject - bucketName and objectName parameters are required

  • putObject - bucketName parameter is required. If exchange body contains File, then file name is used as default object name unless over-ridden via exchange property CamelHwCloudObsObjectName

Passing Options Through Exchange Body

There are many options that can be submitted to the createBucket and listObjects operations, so they can be passed through the exchange body.

If you would like to configure all the parameters when creating a bucket, you can pass a CreateBucketRequest object or a Json string into the exchange body. If the exchange body is empty, a new bucket will be created using the bucketName and bucketLocation (if provided) passed through the endpoint uri.

from("direct:triggerRoute")
 .setBody(new CreateBucketRequest("Bucket name", "Bucket location"))
 .to("hwcloud-obs:createBucket?region=cn-north-4&accessKey=********&secretKey=********")
from("direct:triggerRoute")
 .setBody("{\"bucketName\":\"Bucket name\",\"location\":\"Bucket location\"}")
 .to("hwcloud-obs:createBucket?region=cn-north-4&accessKey=********&secretKey=********")

If you would like to configure all the parameters when listing objects, you can pass a ListObjectsRequest object or a Json string into the exchange body. If the exchange body is empty, objects will be listed based on the bucketName passed through the endpoint uri.

from("direct:triggerRoute")
 .setBody(new ListObjectsRequest("Bucket name", 1000))
 .to("hwcloud-obs:listObjects?region=cn-north-4&accessKey=********&secretKey=********")
from("direct:triggerRoute")
 .setBody("{\"bucketName\":\"Bucket name\",\"maxKeys\":1000"}")
 .to("hwcloud-obs:listObjects?region=cn-north-4&accessKey=********&secretKey=********")

Using ServiceKey Configuration Bean

Access key and secret keys are required to authenticate against the OBS cloud. You can avoid having them being exposed and scattered over in your endpoint uri by wrapping them inside a bean of class org.apache.camel.component.huaweicloud.obs.models.ServiceKeys. Add it to the registry and let Camel look it up by referring the object via endpoint query parameter serviceKeys.

Check the following code snippets:

<bean id="myServiceKeyConfig" class="org.apache.camel.component.huaweicloud.obs.models.ServiceKeys">
   <property name="accessKey" value="your_access_key" />
   <property name="secretKey" value="your_secret_key" />
</bean>
from("direct:triggerRoute")
 .setProperty(OBSPropeties.OPERATION, constant("createBucket"))
 .setProperty(OBSPropeties.BUCKET_NAME ,constant("your_bucket_name"))
 .setProperty(OBSPropeties.BUCKET_LOCATION, constant("your_bucket_location"))
 .to("hwcloud-obs:createBucket?region=cn-north-4&serviceKeys=#myServiceKeyConfig")

Spring Boot Auto-Configuration

When using hwcloud-obs with Spring Boot make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for auto configuration:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.springboot</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-huaweicloud-obs-starter</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

The component supports 4 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Type

camel.component.hwcloud-obs.autowired-enabled

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

Boolean

camel.component.hwcloud-obs.bridge-error-handler

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

Boolean

camel.component.hwcloud-obs.enabled

Whether to enable auto configuration of the hwcloud-obs component. This is enabled by default.

Boolean

camel.component.hwcloud-obs.lazy-start-producer

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.
