46.3.1.1. Prerequisites

Ensure that you’ve installed the AMQ Streams operator in your OpenShift cluster and created a topic named my-topic in the current namespace. Make also sure you have "Red Hat Integration - Camel K" installed into the OpenShift cluster you’re connected to.

46.3.1.2. Procedure for using the cluster CLI

  1. Save the topic-name-matches-filter-action-binding.yaml file to your local drive, and then edit it as needed for your configuration.
  2. Run the action by using the following command:

    oc apply -f topic-name-matches-filter-action-binding.yaml

46.3.1.3. Procedure for using the Kamel CLI

Configure and run the action by using the following command:

kamel bind timer-source?message=Hello --step topic-name-matches-filter-action -p "step-0.regex=The Regex" kafka.strimzi.io/v1beta1:KafkaTopic:my-topic

This command creates the KameletBinding in the current namespace on the cluster.
