- route:
    from:
      uri: "kamelet:timer-source"
      parameters:
        period: 10000
        message: 'test'
      steps:
        - to:
            uri: "kamelet:log-sink"

You can use the splunk-sink Kamelet as a Kafka sink by binding it to a Kafka topic.

splunk-sink-binding.yaml 

apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1
kind: Pipe
metadata:
  name: splunk-sink-binding
spec:
  source:
    ref:
      kind: KafkaTopic
      apiVersion: kafka.strimzi.io/v1beta1
      name: my-topic
  sink:
    ref:
      kind: Kamelet
      apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1
      name: splunk-sink
    properties:
      password: The Password
      serverHostname: my_server_splunk.com

  2. Run the sink with the following command: 

    kubectl apply -f splunk-sink-binding.yaml
