Aurélien Pupier updated CAMEL-20871:
------------------------------------
Description:
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
Note: initial discussion https://github.com/apache/camel/pull/14419
