Spring Boot + Apache Camel JDBC component + MySQL - Hello World Example

In previous tutorial we had implemented Apache Camel + Spring SQL Component Example for inserting and retrieving records from MySQL.  In that example we had made use of Spring XML configuration. In this tutorial we will be making use of Spring Boot and Apache Camel JDBC Component for inserting and retrieving records from MySQL.
The JDBC component enables us to access databases through JDBC, where SQL queries (SELECT) and operations (INSERT, UPDATE, etc) are sent in the message body. This component uses the standard JDBC API, unlike the SQL Component, which uses spring-jdbc.

The application we will be developing is as follows -
Apache Camel Spring Boot JDBC Component Maven

    The Maven Project we will be developing is as follows-  
Apache Camel Spring Boot JDBC Component Maven
  The pom.xml is as follows. We make use of the camel-jdbc dependency.

In a previous tutorial we had seen the advantages of make using Spring Boot JDBC.  One advantage is that we do not need to create any datasource bean. It get automatically created for us. In the application.properties file specify the datasource properties
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost/bootdb?createDatabaseIfNotExist=true&autoReconnect=true&useSSL=false
spring.datasource.username=root
spring.datasource.password=root
spring.datasource.platform=mysql
spring.datasource.initialization-mode=always
Create the schema-mysql.sql file and specify the initialization scripts. Spring Boot JDBC will automatically run this initialization scripts on startup.
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS employee;

CREATE TABLE employee (
  empId VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
  empName VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL
);

Create the Employee Domain class as follows-
package com.javainuse.model;

public class Employee {

	private String empId;
	private String empName;

	public String getEmpId() {
		return empId;
	}

	public void setEmpId(String empId) {
		this.empId = empId;
	}

	public String getEmpName() {
		return empName;
	}

	public void setEmpName(String empName) {
		this.empName = empName;
	}

	@Override
	public String toString() {
		return "Employee [empId=" + empId + ", empName=" + empName + "]";
	}

}




Create the Service class where will be configuring the camel route. Also in the service class we autowire the datasource bean create for us by Spring Boot JDBC.
We will be configuring 2 routes -
  • Insert Route -  Using this route we will be inserting the employee details in the MySQL database. As we are making use of camel jdbc we will need to create the insert query and set it in the body. This is done using the Camel Processor.
  • Select Route - Using this route we retrieve the employee details from the MySQL database. We then return the list of employees.

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;

import javax.sql.DataSource;

import org.apache.camel.Exchange;
import org.apache.camel.Processor;
import org.apache.camel.builder.RouteBuilder;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;

import com.javainuse.model.Employee;

@Service
public class EmployeeServiceImpl extends RouteBuilder {

	@Autowired
	DataSource dataSource;

	public DataSource getDataSource() {
		return dataSource;
	}

	public void setDataSource(DataSource dataSource) {
		this.dataSource = dataSource;
		}

	@Override
	public void configure() throws Exception {
        
	       	 //Insert Route
		from("direct:insert").process(new Processor() {
			public void process(Exchange xchg) throws Exception {
			//Take the Employee object from the exchange and create the insert query
				Employee employee = xchg.getIn().getBody(Employee.class);
				String query = "INSERT INTO employee(empId,empName)values('" + employee.getEmpId() + "','"
						+ employee.getEmpName() + "')";
			// Set the insert query in body and call camel jdbc
				xchg.getIn().setBody(query);
			}
		}).to("jdbc:dataSource");
		
		// Select Route
		from("direct:select").setBody(constant("select * from Employee")).to("jdbc:dataSource")
				.process(new Processor() {
					public void process(Exchange xchg) throws Exception {
					   //the camel jdbc select query has been executed. We get the list of employees.
						ArrayList<Map<String, String>> dataList = (ArrayList<Map<String, String>>) xchg.getIn()
								.getBody();
						List<Employee> employees = new ArrayList<Employee>();
						System.out.println(dataList);
						for (Map<String, String> data : dataList) {
							Employee employee = new Employee();
							employee.setEmpId(data.get("empId"));
							employee.setEmpName(data.get("empName"));
							employees.add(employee);
						}
						xchg.getIn().setBody(employees);
					}
				});

		
	}
}

Create the Controller class from where will be calling the Camel route using the ProducerTemplate. The ProducerTemplate interface allows you to send message exchanges to endpoints in a variety of different ways to make it easy to work with Camel Endpoint instances from Java code.
We expose two REST endpoints in this class -
  • GET API to fetch all employees from mysql database. This calls the camel select route.
  • POST API to insert employee details in mysql database. This calls the camel insert route with the Employee details to be inserted.
package com.javainuse.controller;

import java.util.List;

import org.apache.camel.ProducerTemplate;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestBody;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;

import com.javainuse.model.Employee;

@RestController
public class EmployeeController {

	@Autowired
	ProducerTemplate producerTemplate;

	@RequestMapping(value = "/employees", method = RequestMethod.GET)
	public List<Employee> getAllEmployees() {
		List<Employee> employees = producerTemplate.requestBody("direct:select", null, List.class);
		return employees;

	}

	@RequestMapping(value = "/employees", consumes = "application/json", method = RequestMethod.POST)
	public boolean insertEmployee(@RequestBody Employee emp) {
		producerTemplate.requestBody("direct:insert", emp, List.class);
		return true;
	}
}
Finally create the Spring Boot Main class with the SpringBootApplication Annotation
package com.javainuse;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
public class SpringBootJdbcApplication {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		SpringApplication.run(SpringBootJdbcApplication.class, args);
	}
}
Start the application.
Send a POST request to insert new employee detail-
Apache Camel Spring Boot POST Request
  Send a GET request to retrieve all employee details-
Apache Camel Spring Boot GET Request
