Hadrian Zbarcea commented on CAMEL-3429: ---------------------------------------- That would be an idea, however I assume you meant {{remove}} instead of {{removeHeaders}} {code} from("...").headers().remove("x").to("...") from("...").headers().remove("x", "y", "z").to("...") {code} There are a few people in the community now that think we could improve the DSL. Martin tweeted about his recent dabbling with a Scala dsl. I would like to see a more pluggable dsl and maybe a dsl builder, kinda the the way camel-bam does it, to better address integration needs of a specific industry or organization. (Of course we strive to be backwards compatible too). So anyway, I hope we'll tackle this one soon, I assume right after the holidays. > Extend DSL with more header filtering constructs > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CAMEL-3429 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-3429 > Project: Camel > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: camel-core > Affects Versions: 2.5.0 > Reporter: Richard Kettelerij > Fix For: Future > > Attachments: remove-headers-camel-core.patch > > > Currently the DSL offers the following methods: > - {{removeHeader(name)}} which removes a single header > - {{removeHeaders(pattern)}} remove one or more headers based on a pattern > (since 2.3) > The attached patch extends the DSL with the following methods: > - {{removeHeaders(name...)}} removes the headers in the given a vararg > parameter. > - {{removeHeadersExcept(pattern)}} removes all headers except for the ones > matching the given pattern (opposite of {{removeHeaders(pattern)}}) > - {{removeHeadersExcept(name...)}} removes all headers except for the ones in > the given vararg parameter (opposite of {{removeHeaders(name)}}) > The rationale for the removeHeadersExcept() method is that in many cases you > want to take a _defensive_ approach with regard to header propagation. > Sometimes you may want to remove _every_ header on the current message, in > that case just call removeHeadersExcept() with no arguments. > In other cases you want to propagate only the "id" header received through > the servlet/jetty component (as a query parameter). In that case call > removeHeadersExcept("id") to preserve the "id" header, while preventing other > query parameters (and standard HTTP headers) to flow down your route. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
