56.3. Additional Camel Quarkus configuration
Copy link

The extension leverages the Quarkus MongoDB Client extension. The Mongo client can be configured via the Quarkus MongoDB Client configuration options.

The Camel Quarkus MongoDB extension automatically registers a MongoDB client bean named camelMongoClient. This can be referenced in the mongodb endpoint URI connectionBean path parameter. For example: 

from("direct:start")
.to("mongodb:camelMongoClient?database=myDb&collection=myCollection&operation=findAll")

If your application needs to work with multiple MongoDB servers, you can create a "named" client and reference in your route by injecting a client and the related configuration as explained in the Quarkus MongoDB extension client injection. For example: 

//application.properties
quarkus.mongodb.mongoClient1.connection-string = mongodb://root:example@localhost:27017/

//Routes.java

    @ApplicationScoped
    public class Routes extends RouteBuilder {
        @Inject
        @MongoClientName("mongoClient1")
        MongoClient mongoClient1;

        @Override
        public void configure() throws Exception {
            from("direct:defaultServer")
                .to("mongodb:camelMongoClient?database=myDb&collection=myCollection&operation=findAll")

            from("direct:otherServer")
                .to("mongodb:mongoClient1?database=myOtherDb&collection=myOtherCollection&operation=findAll");
        }
    }

Note that when using named clients, the "default" camelMongoClient bean will still be produced. Refer to the Quarkus documentation on Multiple MongoDB Clients for more information.
