This seems like such a simple thing to do, yet I can't seem to find it in the Camel documentation.
Related to my last question i.e., http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/Get-BeanCreationException-when-try-to-add-Jackson-Library-to-my-applicationContext-xml-td5741314.html I now have my code putting the JMS logging response messages into JSON format. Here's what I currently get when I run my code: 23118 [hello.world.request.timer] INFO hello.world.request - Exchange[Id:e93861e4- a5be-4d63-b658-5939f414e595, ExchangePattern:InOnly, Properties: {CamelToEndpoint=log://hello.world.request?showAll=true, CamelTimerFiredTime=Fri Oct 11 12:03:20 EDT 2013, CamelTimerPeriod=10000, CamelTimerName=hello.world.request.timer}, Headers:{firedTime=Fri Oct 11 12:03:20 EDT 2013}, BodyType:null, Body:null, Out: null] Returning Map key= fruit1DataType, value= String key= fruit1, value= apple key= fruit1Calories, value= 95 key= fruit1ColorDataType, value= String key= fruit1CaloriesDataType, value= int key= fruit1Color, value= red 23122 [hello.world.request.timer] INFO hello.world.response - Exchange[Id:e93861e4- a5be-4d63-b658-5939f414e595, ExchangePattern:InOnly, Properties: {CamelToEndpoint=log://hello.world.response?showAll=true, CamelTimerFiredTime=Fri Oct 11 12:03:20 EDT 2013, CamelTimerPeriod=10000, CamelTimerName=hello.world.request.timer}, Headers:{firedTime=Fri Oct 11 12:03:20 EDT 2013}, BodyType:byte[], Body: {"fruit1DataType":"String","fruit1":"apple","fruit1Calories":"95","fruit1ColorDataType":"St ring","fruit1CaloriesDataType":"int","fruit1Color":"red"}, Out: null] Ideally I'd just like to have Camel convert the contents of the map returned to JSON and print it to the console like this: {"fruit1DataType":"String","fruit1":"apple","fruit1Calories":"95","fruit1ColorDataType":"String","fruit1CaloriesDataType":"int","fruit1Color":"red"}, Out: null] How do I modify my applicationContext.xml to have Camel do this? I think I need a Camel JSON endpoint in route to serialize my map to JSON. I found this JSON FAQ: http://camel.apache.org/how-do-i-configure-endpoints.html but its not clear to me how I would adapt this to serialize my map to JSON. Here's my current applicationContext.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:camel="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring" xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util" xsi:schemaLocation=" http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/util http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-3.0.xsd http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring/camel-spring.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd"> <bean class="org.springframework.context.annotation.CommonAnnotationBeanPostProcessor" /> <context:component-scan base-package="sample" /> <context:annotation-config /> <camel:camelContext id="HelloWorldContext"> <camel:dataFormats> <camel:json id="jack" library="Jackson"/> </camel:dataFormats> <camel:route> <camel:from uri="timer://hello.world.request.timer?fixedRate=true&period=10000" /> <camel:to uri="log:hello.world.request?level=INFO?showAll=true" /> <camel:bean ref="helloWorld" /> <camel:marshal ref ="jack"/> <camel:to uri="log:hello.world.response?level=INFO?showAll=true" /> </camel:route> </camel:camelContext> <bean id="jms" class="org.apache.activemq.camel.component.ActiveMQComponent"> <property name="configuration" ref="jmsConfig" /> </bean> <bean id="jmsConfig" class="org.apache.camel.component.jms.JmsConfiguration"> <property name="connectionFactory" ref="jmsConnectionFactory" /> <property name="transacted" value="false" /> <property name="concurrentConsumers" value="1" /> </bean> <bean id="jmsConnectionFactory" class="org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnectionFactory"> <property name="brokerURL" value="vm://localhost" /> <property name="redeliveryPolicy" ref="redeliveryPolicy" /> <property name="prefetchPolicy" ref="prefetchPolicy" /> </bean> <bean id="prefetchPolicy" class="org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQPrefetchPolicy"> <property name="queuePrefetch" value="5" /> </bean> <bean id="redeliveryPolicy" class="org.apache.activemq.RedeliveryPolicy"> <property name="maximumRedeliveries" value="1" /> <property name="backOffMultiplier" value="2" /> <property name="initialRedeliveryDelay" value="2000" /> </bean> </beans> -- View this message in context: http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/How-do-I-convert-the-map-returned-to-Camel-into-JSON-tp5741370.html Sent from the Camel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
