Chapter 68. XQuery


Query and/or transform XML payloads using XQuery and Saxon.

68.1. What’s inside

Please refer to the above links for usage and configuration details.

68.2. Maven coordinates

Create a new project with this extension on code.quarkus.redhat.com

Or add the coordinates to your existing project:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.camel.quarkus</groupId>
    <artifactId>camel-quarkus-saxon</artifactId>
</dependency>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

68.3. Additional Camel Quarkus configuration

This component is able to load XQuery definitions from classpath. To make it work also in native mode, you need to explicitly embed the queries in the native executable by using the quarkus.native.resources.includes property.

For instance, the two routes below load an XQuery script from two classpath resources named myxquery.txt and another-xquery.txt respectively:

from("direct:start").transform().xquery("resource:classpath:myxquery.txt", String.class);
from("direct:start").to("xquery:another-xquery.txt");
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

To include these (an possibly other queries stored in .txt files) in the native image, you would have to add something like the following to your application.properties file:

quarkus.native.resources.includes = *.txt
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
