Chapter 231. MSV Component


Available as of Camel version 1.1

The MSV component performs XML validation of the message body using the MSV Library and any of the supported XML schema languages, such as XML Schema or RelaxNG XML Syntax.

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
    <artifactId>camel-msv</artifactId>
    <version>x.x.x</version>
    <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

Note that the Jing component also supports RelaxNG Compact Syntax

231.1. URI format

msv:someLocalOrRemoteResource[?options]

Where someLocalOrRemoteResource is some URL to a local resource on the classpath or a full URL to a remote resource or resource on the file system. For example

msv:org/foo/bar.rng
msv:file:../foo/bar.rng
msv:http://acme.com/cheese.rng

You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?option=value&option=value&…​

231.2. Options

The MSV component supports 3 options, which are listed below.

Whether the component should resolve property placeholders on itself when starting. Only properties which are of String type can use property placeholders.

true

boolean

The MSV endpoint is configured using URI syntax:

with the following path and query parameters:

231.2.1. Path Parameters (1 parameters):

NameDescriptionDefaultType

resourceUri

ValidatorErrorHandler

resourceResolver (advanced)

To use a custom LSResourceResolver. Do not use together with resourceResolverFactory

 

LSResourceResolver

resourceResolverFactory (advanced)

To use a custom LSResourceResolver which depends on a dynamic endpoint resource URI. The default resource resolver factory resturns a resource resolver which can read files from the class path and file system. Do not use together with resourceResolver.

 

ValidatorResource ResolverFactory

true

Boolean

camel.component.msv.resource-resolver-factory

To use a custom LSResourceResolver which depends on a dynamic endpoint resource URI. The option is a org.apache.camel.component.validator.ValidatorResourceResolverFactory type.
