Chapter 284. RSS DataFormat
Available as of Camel version 2.1
The RSS component ships with an RSS dataformat that can be used to convert between String (as XML) and ROME RSS model objects.
-
marshal = from ROME
SyndFeedto XMLString -
unmarshal = from XML
Stringto ROMESyndFeed
A route using this would look something like this:
The purpose of this feature is to make it possible to use Camel’s lovely built-in expressions for manipulating RSS messages. As shown below, an XPath expression can be used to filter the RSS message:
Query parameters If the URL for the RSS feed uses query parameters, this component will understand them as well, for example if the feed uses alt=rss, then you can for example do from("rss:http://someserver.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss&splitEntries=false&consumer.delay=1000").to("bean:rss");
284.1. Options

| Name | Default | Java Type | Description |
