OK, that figures, and I got it to work.
But it seems to circumvent the whole purpose of the POJO binding with rest DSL.
How are you supposed to send POJO to Rest DSL within Camel.
I briefly tried using restlet like this:

t.requestBody('restlet:http://$BASE_URL/foo?restletMethod=POST', p)

but that didn't work.

Thanks
Tim

Hi

Its the client code you write to send the Person using http4. It does
not know how to convert that to json. You need to convert it to json
first, and then send that instead of the Person java object.

I'm having problems getting POJO binding working with the Rest DSL.
I put together a simple example in Groovy, but it fails:



package com.im.examples.search

import org.apache.camel.CamelContext
import org.apache.camel.ProducerTemplate
import org.apache.camel.builder.RouteBuilder
import org.apache.camel.impl.DefaultCamelContext
import org.apache.camel.model.rest.RestBindingMode
import org.apache.camel.model.dataformat.JsonLibrary

String HOST = 'localhost'
String PORT = '43256'
String BASE_URL = "$HOST:$PORT/search"

class Person {
     String firstName
     String lastName
}

CamelContext camelContext = new DefaultCamelContext()
camelContext.addRoutes(new RouteBuilder() {
         def void configure() {
restConfiguration().component("restlet").host(HOST).port(PORT).bindingMode(RestBindingMode.json)
             rest("/search")
             .post("/foo").type(Person.class).to("direct:end")
             from('direct:end')
             .log('${body}')
             .transform().constant('Welcome')
             from('direct:testmarshal')
             .marshal().json(JsonLibrary.Jackson)
             .log('JSON: ${body}')
         }
     })
camelContext.start()

Person p = new Person(firstName: 'John', lastName: 'Doe')
ProducerTemplate t = camelContext.createProducerTemplate()
t.sendBody('direct:testmarshal', p)
def resp = t.requestBody("http4:$BASE_URL/foo", p)
println "resp: $resp"

camelContext.stop()




The error I get is:

I thought I had carefully followed the documentation :-(
Can anyone help spot what is wrong?

Thanks
