Chapter 3. Avro Serialize Action Serialize payload to Avro 3.1. Configuration Options The following table summarizes the configuration options available for the avro-serialize-action Kamelet: Property Name Description Type Default Example schema * Schema The Avro schema to use during serialization (as single-line, using JSON format) string "{\"type\": \"record\", \"namespace\": \"com.example\", \"name\": \"FullName\", \"fields\": [{\"name\": \"first\", \"type\": \"string\"},{\"name\": \"last\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}" validate Validate Indicates if the content must be validated against the schema boolean true Note Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are mandatory. 3.2. Dependencies At runtime, the avro-serialize-action Kamelet relies upon the presence of the following dependencies: github:openshift-integration.kamelet-catalog:camel-kamelets-utils:kamelet-catalog-1.6-SNAPSHOT camel:kamelet camel:core camel:jackson-avro 3.3. Usage This section describes how you can use the avro-serialize-action . 3.3.1. Knative Action You can use the avro-serialize-action Kamelet as an intermediate step in a Knative binding. avro-serialize-action-binding.yaml apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1 kind: KameletBinding metadata: name: avro-serialize-action-binding spec: source: ref: kind: Kamelet apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1 name: timer-source properties: message: '{"first":"Ada","last":"Lovelace"}' steps: - ref: kind: Kamelet apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1 name: json-deserialize-action - ref: kind: Kamelet apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1 name: avro-serialize-action properties: schema: "{\"type\": \"record\", \"namespace\": \"com.example\", \"name\": \"FullName\", \"fields\": [{\"name\": \"first\", \"type\": \"string\"},{\"name\": \"last\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}" sink: ref: kind: Channel apiVersion: messaging.knative.dev/v1 name: mychannel 3.3.1.1. Prerequisite Make sure you have "Red Hat Integration - Camel K" installed into the OpenShift cluster you're connected to. 3.3.1.2. Procedure for using the cluster CLI Save the avro-serialize-action-binding.yaml file to your local drive, and then edit it as needed for your configuration. Run the action by using the following command: oc apply -f avro-serialize-action-binding.yaml 3.3.1.3. Procedure for using the Kamel CLI Configure and run the action by using the following command: kamel bind --name avro-serialize-action-binding timer-source?message='{"first":"Ada","last":"Lovelace"}' --step json-deserialize-action --step avro-serialize-action -p step-1.schema='{"type": "record", "namespace": "com.example", "name": "FullName", "fields": [{"name": "first", "type": "string"},{"name": "last", "type": "string"}]}' channel:mychannel This command creates the KameletBinding in the current namespace on the cluster. 3.3.2. Kafka Action You can use the avro-serialize-action Kamelet as an intermediate step in a Kafka binding. avro-serialize-action-binding.yaml apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1 kind: KameletBinding metadata: name: avro-serialize-action-binding spec: source: ref: kind: Kamelet apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1 name: timer-source properties: message: '{"first":"Ada","last":"Lovelace"}' steps: - ref: kind: Kamelet apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1 name: json-deserialize-action - ref: kind: Kamelet apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1 name: avro-serialize-action properties: schema: "{\"type\": \"record\", \"namespace\": \"com.example\", \"name\": \"FullName\", \"fields\": [{\"name\": \"first\", \"type\": \"string\"},{\"name\": \"last\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}" sink: ref: kind: KafkaTopic apiVersion: kafka.strimzi.io/v1beta1 name: my-topic 3.3.2.1. Prerequisites Ensure that you've installed the AMQ Streams operator in your OpenShift cluster and created a topic named my-topic in the current namespace. Make also sure you have "Red Hat Integration - Camel K" installed into the OpenShift cluster you're connected to. 3.3.2.2. Procedure for using the cluster CLI Save the avro-serialize-action-binding.yaml file to your local drive, and then edit it as needed for your configuration. Run the action by using the following command: oc apply -f avro-serialize-action-binding.yaml 3.3.2.3. Procedure for using the Kamel CLI Configure and run the action by using the following command: kamel bind --name avro-serialize-action-binding timer-source?message='{"first":"Ada","last":"Lovelace"}' --step json-deserialize-action --step avro-serialize-action -p step-1.schema='{"type": "record", "namespace": "com.example", "name": "FullName", "fields": [{"name": "first", "type": "string"},{"name": "last", "type": "string"}]}' kafka.strimzi.io/v1beta1:KafkaTopic:my-topic This command creates the KameletBinding in the current namespace on the cluster. 3.4.
