Chapter 90. Dropbox Component
Available as of Camel version 2.14
The dropbox: component allows you to treat Dropbox remote folders as a producer or consumer of messages. Using the Dropbox Java Core API (reference version for this component is 1.7.x), this camel component has the following features:
- As a consumer, download files and search files by queries
- As a producer, download files, move files between remote directories, delete files/dir, upload files and search files by queries
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml
for this component:
<dependency> <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId> <artifactId>camel-dropbox</artifactId> <version>x.x.x</version> <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version --> </dependency>
90.1. URI format
dropbox://[operation]?[options]
Where operation is the specific action (typically is a CRUD action) to perform on Dropbox remote folder.
90.2. Operations
Operation | Description |
---|---|
| deletes files or directories on Dropbox |
| download files from Dropbox |
| move files from folders on Dropbox |
| upload files on Dropbox |
| search files on Dropbox based on string queries |
Operations require additional options to work, some are mandatory for the specific operation.
90.3. Options
In order to work with Dropbox API you need to obtain an accessToken and a clientIdentifier.
You can refer to the Dropbox documentation that explains how to get them.
The Dropbox component has no options.
The Dropbox endpoint is configured using URI syntax:
dropbox:operation
with the following path and query parameters:
90.3.1. Path Parameters (1 parameters):
Name | Description | Default | Type |
---|---|---|---|
operation | Required The specific action (typically is a CRUD action) to perform on Dropbox remote folder. | DropboxOperation |
90.3.2. Query Parameters (12 parameters):
Name | Description | Default | Type |
---|---|---|---|
accessToken (common) | Required The access token to make API requests for a specific Dropbox user | String | |
client (common) | To use an existing DbxClient instance as DropBox client. | DbxClientV2 | |
clientIdentifier (common) | Name of the app registered to make API requests | String | |
localPath (common) | Optional folder or file to upload on Dropbox from the local filesystem. If this option has not been configured then the message body is used as the content to upload. | String | |
newRemotePath (common) | Destination file or folder | String | |
query (common) | A space-separated list of sub-strings to search for. A file matches only if it contains all the sub-strings. If this option is not set, all files will be matched. | String | |
remotePath (common) | Original file or folder to move | String | |
uploadMode (common) | Which mode to upload. in case of add the new file will be renamed if a file with the same name already exists on dropbox. in case of force if a file with the same name already exists on dropbox, this will be overwritten. | DropboxUploadMode | |
bridgeErrorHandler (consumer) | Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. By default the consumer will use the org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler to deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored. | false | boolean |
exceptionHandler (consumer) | To let the consumer use a custom ExceptionHandler. Notice if the option bridgeErrorHandler is enabled then this option is not in use. By default the consumer will deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored. | ExceptionHandler | |
exchangePattern (consumer) | Sets the exchange pattern when the consumer creates an exchange. | ExchangePattern | |
synchronous (advanced) | Sets whether synchronous processing should be strictly used, or Camel is allowed to use asynchronous processing (if supported). | false | boolean |

Name | Description | Default | Type |
