Hi Ricardo

That looks exactly like the thing I need.

Thanks for the reply!

Hi!

You mentioned templating system, so Velocity [1] comes to mind. Have you
tried that? I guess that should be simple mapping from JSON/XML to velocity
(and keeping your formmating).

[1] - http://camel.apache.org/velocity.html

Cheers!

Hi everyone

I'm in the process of designing a solution to manage config files which
look something like this:

config firewall service category
      edit "General"
          set comment "General services."
      next
      edit "Web Access"
          set comment "Web access."
      next
      edit "File Access"
          set comment "File access."
end

Some of you may recognize this as the config for a fortigate firewall.
It's tab indented, so while it looks a bit yaml-ish it isn't.

With a mix of POJO/ Dataformat clauses I'm hoping to map this from JSON/
XML to a templating system in order to generate files similar to the
snippet above.

I tried googling about camel and tab indentation but only find
references to bindi which is used for csv/tsv files, this is not quite
the same use case.

Worst case scenario I guess I'd do it with some kind of hack in
xslt/xquery to make it "look" like this, but that feels like a hack

Any thoughts, or suggestions welcome

Thanks
Riaan
