-------------------------------------
Summary: Custom context id for MDC logging
Key: CAMEL-6420
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-6420
Project: Camel
Issue Type: Wish
Components: camel-core
Reporter: Marco Zapletal
Priority: Minor
The Camel MDC feature is really great. However, we would like to use our own
context id (i.e., a Camel header) instead of the ones available out of the box.
So far as I have seen, there are no configuration options to do so. In
addition, subclassing MDCUnitOfWork is also not the appropriate way to go...
I have searched the mailing list and there have been similar requests in the
past
http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/custom-MDC-property-td4750999.html
http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/custom-MDCUnitOfWork-td5730107.html
In principle, I would see two ways to go to realize such a feature:
- When configuring (activating) MDC logging on the context, there may be an
additional option to define an expression, which is evaluated by the
MDCUnitOfWork
- The definition of a "quasi-standard" Camel header for user defined
correlation - i.e., to define a reserved header key (similar to correlationId
or messageId) that can be leveraged by Camel users to set their own correlation
values - maybe such a header would also be usable for other use cases as well?
Users can then configure MDC logging to use this header as context id.
I am happy to hear the thoughts of the Camel community
