Chapter 158. Splunk
Splunk Component
Available as of Camel 2.13
The Splunk component provides access to Splunk using the Splunk provided client api, and it enables you to publish and search for events in Splunk.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-splunk</artifactId>
<version>${camel-version}</version>
</dependency>URI format
splunk://[endpoint]?[options]
Producer Endpoints:
|
Endpoint
|
Description
|
|---|---|
stream
|
Streams data to a named index or the default if not specified. When using stream mode be aware of that Splunk has some internal buffer (about 1MB or so) before events gets to the index. If you need realtime, better use
submit or tcp mode.
|
submit
|
submit mode. Uses Splunk REST API to publish events to a named index or the default if not specified.
|
tcp
|
tcp mode. Streams data to a TCP port, and requires a open receiver port in Splunk.
|
When publishing events the message body should contain a SplunkEvent.
Example
from("direct:start").convertBodyTo(SplunkEvent.class)
.to("splunk://submit?username=user&password=123&index=myindex&sourceType=someSourceType&source=mySource")...
In this example a converter is required to convert to a SplunkEvent class.
Consumer Endpoints:
|
Endpoint
|
Description
|
|---|---|
normal
|
Performs normal search and requires a search query in the search option.
|
savedsearch
|
Performs search based on a search query saved in splunk and requires the name of the query in the savedSearch option.
|
Example
from("splunk://normal?delay=5s&username=user&password=123&initEarliestTime=-10s&search=search index=myindex sourcetype=someSourcetype")
.to("direct:search-result");
camel-splunk creates a route exchange per search result with a SplunkEvent in the body.

Camel 2.14.0 : Stream exchanges as they are received from Splunk, rather than returning all of them in one batch. This has the benefit of receiving results faster, as well as requiring less memory as exchanges aren't buffered in the component.

Message body
Splunk operates on data in key/value pairs. The SplunkEvent class is a placeholder for such data, and should be in the message body for the producer. Likewise it will be returned in the body per search result for the consumer.
As of Camel 2.16.0 you can send raw data to Splunk by setting the
raw option on the producer endpoint. This is useful for JSon/XML and other payloads where Splunk has built-in support.
Use Cases
Search Twitter for tweets with music and publish events to Splunk
from("twitter://search?type=polling&keywords=music&delay=10&consumerKey=abc&consumerSecret=def&accessToken=hij&accessTokenSecret=xxx")
.convertBodyTo(SplunkEvent.class)
.to("splunk://submit?username=foo&password=bar&index=camel-tweets&sourceType=twitter&source=music-tweets");
To convert a Tweet to a SplunkEvent you could use a converter like
@Converter
public class Tweet2SplunkEvent {
@Converter
public static SplunkEvent convertTweet(Status status) {
SplunkEvent data = new SplunkEvent("twitter-message", null);
//data.addPair("source", status.getSource());
data.addPair("from_user", status.getUser().getScreenName());
data.addPair("in_reply_to", status.getInReplyToScreenName());
data.addPair(SplunkEvent.COMMON_START_TIME, status.getCreatedAt());
data.addPair(SplunkEvent.COMMON_EVENT_ID, status.getId());
data.addPair("text", status.getText());
data.addPair("retweet_count", status.getRetweetCount());
if (status.getPlace() != null) {
data.addPair("place_country", status.getPlace().getCountry());
data.addPair("place_name", status.getPlace().getName());
data.addPair("place_street", status.getPlace().getStreetAddress());
}
if (status.getGeoLocation() != null) {
data.addPair("geo_latitude", status.getGeoLocation().getLatitude());
data.addPair("geo_longitude", status.getGeoLocation().getLongitude());
}
return data;
}
}
Search Splunk for tweets
from("splunk://normal?username=foo&password=bar&initEarliestTime=-2m&search=search index=camel-tweets sourcetype=twitter")
.log("${body}");Other comments
Splunk comes with a variety of options for leveraging machine generated data with prebuilt apps for analyzing and displaying this. For example the jmx app. could be used to publish jmx attributes, eg. route and jvm metrics to Splunk, and displaying this on a dashboard.
