Chapter 386. ZooKeeper Master Component Available as of Camel version 2.19 The zookeeper-master: endpoint provides a way to ensure only a single consumer in a cluster consumes from a given endpoint; with automatic failover if that JVM dies. This can be very useful if you need to consume from some legacy back end which either doesn't support concurrent consumption or due to commercial or stability reasons you can only have a single connection at any point in time. 386.1. Using the master endpoint Just prefix any camel endpoint with zookeeper-master:someName: where someName is a logical name and is used to acquire the master lock. e.g. The above simulates the [Exclusive Consumers]( http://activemq.apache.org/exclusive-consumer.html ) type feature in ActiveMQ; but on any third party JMS provider which maybe doesn't support exclusive consumers. 386.2. URI format Where endpoint is any Camel endpoint you want to run in master/slave mode. 386.3. Options The ZooKeeper Master component supports 7 options, which are listed below. Name Description Default Type containerIdFactory (consumer) To use a custom ContainerIdFactory for creating container ids. ContainerIdFactory zkRoot (consumer) The root path to use in zookeeper where information is stored which nodes are master/slave etc. Will by default use: /camel/zookeepermaster/clusters/master /camel/zookeepermaster/clusters/master String curator (advanced) To use a custom configured CuratorFramework as connection to zookeeper ensemble. CuratorFramework maximumConnection Timeout (consumer) Timeout in millis to use when connecting to the zookeeper ensemble 10000 int zooKeeperUrl (consumer) The url for the zookeeper ensemble localhost:2181 String zooKeeperPassword (security) The password to use when connecting to the zookeeper ensemble String resolveProperty Placeholders (advanced) Whether the component should resolve property placeholders on itself when starting. Only properties which are of String type can use property placeholders. true boolean The ZooKeeper Master endpoint is configured using URI syntax: with the following path and query parameters: 386.3.1. Path Parameters (2 parameters): Name Description Default Type groupName Required The name of the cluster group to use String consumerEndpointUri Required The consumer endpoint to use in master/slave mode String 386.3.2. Query Parameters (4 parameters): 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 exceptionHandler (consumer) 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. ExceptionHandler exchangePattern (consumer) Sets the exchange pattern when the consumer creates an exchange. ExchangePattern synchronous (advanced) Sets whether synchronous processing should be strictly used, or Camel is allowed to use asynchronous processing (if supported). false boolean 386.4. Spring Boot Auto-Configuration The component supports 8 options, which are listed below. Name Description Default Type camel.component.zookeeper-master.container-id-factory To use a custom ContainerIdFactory for creating container ids. The option is a org.apache.camel.component.zookeepermaster.ContainerIdFactory type. String camel.component.zookeeper-master.curator To use a custom configured CuratorFramework as connection to zookeeper ensemble. The option is a org.apache.curator.framework.CuratorFramework type. String camel.component.zookeeper-master.enabled Enable zookeeper-master component true Boolean camel.component.zookeeper-master.maximum-connection-timeout Timeout in millis to use when connecting to the zookeeper ensemble 10000 Integer camel.component.zookeeper-master.resolve-property-placeholders Whether the component should resolve property placeholders on itself when starting. Only properties which are of String type can use property placeholders. true Boolean camel.component.zookeeper-master.zk-root The root path to use in zookeeper where information is stored which nodes are master/slave etc. Will by default use: /camel/zookeepermaster/clusters/master /camel/zookeepermaster/clusters/master String camel.component.zookeeper-master.zoo-keeper-password The password to use when connecting to the zookeeper ensemble String camel.component.zookeeper-master.zoo-keeper-url The url for the zookeeper ensemble localhost:2181 String 386.5. Example You can protect a clustered Camel application to only consume files from one active node. // the file endpoint we want to consume from String url = "file:target/inbox?delete=true"; // use the zookeeper master component in the clustered group named myGroup // to run a master/slave mode in the following Camel url from("zookeeper-master:myGroup:" + url) .log(name + " - Received file: USD{file:name}") .delay(delay) .log(name + " - Done file: USD{file:name}") .to("file:target/outbox"); ZooKeeper will by default connect to localhost:2181 , but you can configure this on the component level. MasterComponent master = new MasterComponent(); master.setZooKeeperUrl("myzookeeper:2181"); However you can also configure the url of the ZooKeeper ensemble using environment variables.

Commands:
from("zookeeper-master:cheese:jms:foo").to("activemq:wine");
zookeeper-master:name:endpoint[?options]
zookeeper-master:groupName:consumerEndpointUri
// the file endpoint we want to consume from String url = "file:target/inbox?delete=true"; // use the zookeeper master component in the clustered group named myGroup // to run a master/slave mode in the following Camel url from("zookeeper-master:myGroup:" + url) .log(name + " - Received file: USD{file:name}") .delay(delay) .log(name + " - Done file: USD{file:name}") .to("file:target/outbox");
MasterComponent master = new MasterComponent(); master.setZooKeeperUrl("myzookeeper:2181");
export ZOOKEEPER_URL = "myzookeeper:2181"
