             Summary: Imrpove discoverability of PLC4X for the various 
supported protocols
                 Key: CAMEL-20871
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-20871
             Project: Camel
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Aurélien Pupier


Toolings are currently using the catalog to let user browse components. In the 
IoT space, users are often coming with protocol names, such as OPC UA, CANOpen 
and more. Currently when searching for these protocols, no component are 
showing up. But the component PLC4X is supporting them.

Adding all of these protocols in the description of the component, which is 
part of the catalog,  is making the description too long.

Other ideas to improve discoverability:

* add protocol as category
* improve catalog by adding "search field" but maybe too much redundant with 
category
* have tooling searching in documentation pages too (even if I do not see well 
how it can work easily)
* provide Kamelets for each of the supported protocols. it has the benefit that 
we can also add the specific dependency
