Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-10197:
-------------------------------------

Yes a concern is that there will be gazillions of properties and end users 
would loose oversight. 

Using a Camel component as end user you are intended to use the primary options 
(eg exposed by Camel).

Also refs makes sense to configure a property with #foo to refer to a bean with 
the id foo. In case the property is not a string, or numeric, boolean type. So 
you can say camel.component.jetty.httpClient=#myClient

And then you can have a @Bean @Named("myClient") in Spring Boot that creates a 
HttpClient bean.

> Support for spring-boot configuration allows users to configure the component 
> properties but does not give any hint on nested properties.
> There are many components that declare properties on nested beans.
> Eg. camel-docker has only one property named _configuration_ .  I found this 
> pattern in components that allow users to specify a default value on the 
> component and override it on each endpoint, if necessary.
> Setting the property:
> {code}
> camel.component.docker.configuration.host=172.28.128.4
> {code}
> allows a user to specify the docker host, but the tooling does not give 
> suggestions about that property.
> A way to allow the users to view the nested properties is using the 
> {{NestedConfigurationProperty}} annotation on the spring-boot configuration 
> class. The spring-boot inspector will scan the nested class for properties.
> The drawback is that the javadoc is not read from setters. Another drawback 
> is that we will be using a different approach respect to the "read-the-json" 
> one.
> We need to figure out how to add these properties.
