SAP Cloud Integration uses Apache Camel which is an open source framework provides  message-oriented middleware with a rule-based routing and mediation engine. Apache Camel community provides larger no of standard apache camel components which provides uniform endpoint interfaces, to which Camel can send messages or receive messages from them. Basically, these Apache camel components acts as connector to any 3rd party systems, implementing enterprise integration patterns (EIP).

This blog talks about how to use Apache camel community standard components as SAP Cloud Integration (sender/receiver) adapters with a sample CPI integration flow to demonstrate usage of it.

We provide some of the standard Apache Camel Community components as SAP Cloud Integration ADK compliant adapters (ESA) files.  These ESA files can be deployed into Cloud Integration runtime using Eclipse tooling Deploy Artefacts wizard.

For example, a sample ADK compliant adapter file for RabbitMQ Apache Camel Component


We are also providing sample Integration flow, which demonstrate the usage of the Apache Camel community Adapter.  Just import the Integration flow artefact, provide the server configuration by referring to example provided in the adapter property sheet.

Please note that adapter ESA file should be deployed before importing the integration flow artefact.

Deploy the integration flow and check that the integration flow message processing successfully completed in the CPI monitoring


 

In this integration flow, whatever payload we have configured in the Message payload will be persisted to RabbitMQ queue.  An example configuration used here as follows:


 

Sample input provided in the message payload content modifier:


 

Output you can see In the RabbitMQ Queue as you see below:


 

We are also providing the transformed project source code of Apache camel community standard components, which had Cloud integration ADK specific metadata pre-generated.


 

These source you can modify as per your requirements by importing the project in to Eclipse IDE using Maven project import wizard and do your changes as required, build the final project using Maven build , which will generate the ESA file which is the Cloud integration ADK compliant adapter.

You can find the all above mentioned artefacts in the SAP GitHub apibusinesshub-integration-recipes, whose link is provided below

https://github.com/sap/apibusinesshub-integration-recipes/tree/master/Recipes/for/rabbitmq-integrati...

Also going forward, we continue to provide more samples of Apache Camel components (https://github.com/apache/camel/tree/master/components  ) as Cloud integration ADK

Compliant adapters. Here all the components we provide based on Apache Camel version 2.17.4.

Disclaimer: This adapter is shipped as "community contribution" under Apache 2.0 license; support for this adapter should be requested by raising an issue in the GitHub repo and not standard SAP channels.
