Chapter 346. Thrift Component
Available as of Camel version 2.20
The Thrift component allows you to call or expose Remote Procedure Call (RPC) services using Apache Thrift binary communication protocol and serialization mechanism.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-thrift</artifactId>
<version>x.x.x</version>
<!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>346.1. URI format
thrift://service[?options]
346.2. Endpoint Options
The Thrift component supports 2 options, which are listed below.
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| useGlobalSslContext Parameters (security) | Determine if the thrift component is using global SSL context parameters | false | boolean |
| resolveProperty Placeholders (advanced) | 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 Thrift endpoint is configured using URI syntax:
thrift:host:port/service
with the following path and query parameters:
346.2.1. Path Parameters (3 parameters):
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| host | The Thrift server host name. This is localhost or 0.0.0.0 (if not defined) when being a consumer or remote server host name when using producer. | String | |
| port | Required The Thrift server port | int | |
| service | Required Fully qualified service name from the thrift descriptor file (package dot service definition name) | String |
346.2.2. Query Parameters (12 parameters):
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| compressionType (common) | Protocol compression mechanism type | NONE | ThriftCompressionType |
| exchangeProtocol (common) | Exchange protocol serialization type | BINARY | ThriftExchangeProtocol |
| 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 |
| clientTimeout (consumer) | Client timeout for consumers | int | |
| maxPoolSize (consumer) | The Thrift server consumer max thread pool size | 10 | int |
| poolSize (consumer) | The Thrift server consumer initial thread pool size | 1 | int |
| 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 | |
| method (producer) | The Thrift invoked method name | String | |
| synchronous (advanced) | Sets whether synchronous processing should be strictly used, or Camel is allowed to use asynchronous processing (if supported). | false | boolean |
| negotiationType (security) | Security negotiation type | PLAINTEXT | ThriftNegotiationType |
| sslParameters (security) | Configuration parameters for SSL/TLS security negotiation | SSLContextParameters |
346.3. Spring Boot Auto-Configuration
The component supports 7 options, which are listed below.
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| camel.component.thrift.enabled | Whether to enable auto configuration of the thrift component. This is enabled by default. | Boolean | |
| camel.component.thrift.resolve-property-placeholders | Whether the component should resolve property placeholders on itself when starting. Only properties which are of String type can use property placeholders. | true | Boolean |
| camel.component.thrift.use-global-ssl-context-parameters | Determine if the thrift component is using global SSL context parameters | false | Boolean |
| camel.dataformat.thrift.content-type-format | Defines a content type format in which thrift message will be serialized/deserialized from(to) the Java been. The format can either be native or json for either native binary thrift, json or simple json fields representation. The default value is binary. | binary | String |
| camel.dataformat.thrift.content-type-header | Whether the data format should set the Content-Type header with the type from the data format if the data format is capable of doing so. For example application/xml for data formats marshalling to XML, or application/json for data formats marshalling to JSon etc. | false | Boolean |
| camel.dataformat.thrift.enabled | Whether to enable auto configuration of the thrift data format. This is enabled by default. | Boolean | |
| camel.dataformat.thrift.instance-class | Name of class to use when unarmshalling | String |
346.4. Thrift method parameters mapping
Parameters in the called procedure must be passed as a list of objects inside the message body. The primitives are converted from the objects on the fly. In order to correctly find the corresponding method, all types must be transmitted regardless of the values. Please see an exmaple below, how to pass different parameters to the method with the Camel body
List requestBody = new ArrayList();
requestBody.add((boolean)true);
requestBody.add((byte)THRIFT_TEST_NUM1);
requestBody.add((short)THRIFT_TEST_NUM1);
requestBody.add((int)THRIFT_TEST_NUM1);
requestBody.add((long)THRIFT_TEST_NUM1);
requestBody.add((double)THRIFT_TEST_NUM1);
requestBody.add("empty"); // String parameter
requestBody.add(ByteBuffer.allocate(10)); // binary parameter
requestBody.add(new Work(THRIFT_TEST_NUM1, THRIFT_TEST_NUM2, Operation.MULTIPLY)); // Struct parameter
requestBody.add(new ArrayList<Integer>()); // list paramater
requestBody.add(new HashSet<String>()); // set parameter
requestBody.add(new HashMap<String, Long>()); // map parameter
Object responseBody = template.requestBody("direct:thrift-alltypes", requestBody);Incoming parameters in the service consumer will also be passed to the message body as a list of objects.
346.5. Thrift consumer headers (will be installed after the consumer invocation)
| Header name | Description | Possible values |
|---|---|---|
| CamelThriftMethodName | Method name handled by the consumer service |
346.6. Examples
Below is a simple synchronous method invoke with host and port parameters
from("direct:thrift-calculate")
.to("thrift://localhost:1101/org.apache.camel.component.thrift.generated.Calculator?method=calculate&synchronous=true");Below is a simple synchronous method invoke for the XML DSL configuration
<route>
<from uri="direct:thrift-add" />
<to uri="thrift://localhost:1101/org.apache.camel.component.thrift.generated.Calculator?method=add&synchronous=true"/>
</route>Thrift service consumer with asynchronous communication
from("thrift://localhost:1101/org.apache.camel.component.thrift.generated.Calculator")
.to("direct:thrift-service");It’s possible to automate Java code generation for .thrift files using thrift-maven-plugin, but before start the thrift compiler binary distribution for your operating system must be present on the running host.
