Chapter 222. OPC UA Client Component
Available as of Camel version 2.19
The Milo Client component provides access to OPC UA servers using the Eclipse Milo™ implementation.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-milo</artifactId>
<version>x.x.x</version>
<!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>The OPC UA Client component supports 6 options, which are listed below.
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| defaultConfiguration (common) | All default options for client | MiloClientConfiguration | |
| applicationName (common) | Default application name | String | |
| applicationUri (common) | Default application URI | String | |
| productUri (common) | Default product URI | String | |
| reconnectTimeout (common) | Default reconnect timeout | Long | |
| 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 |
222.1. URI format
The URI syntax of the endpoint is:
milo-client:tcp://[user:password@]host:port/path/to/service?node=RAW(nsu=urn:foo:bar;s=item-1)
If the server does not use a path, then it is possible to simply omit it:
milo-client:tcp://[user:password@]host:port?node=RAW(nsu=urn:foo:bar;s=item-1)
If no user credentials are provided the client will switch to anonymous mode.
222.2. URI options
All configuration options in the group client are applicable to the shared client instance. Endpoints will share client instances for each endpoint URI. So the first time a request for that endpoint URI is made, the options of the client group are applied. All further instances will be ignored.
If you need alternate options for the same endpoint URI it is possible though to set the clientId option which will by added internally to the endpoint URI in order to select a different shared connection instance. In other words, shared connections located by the combination of endpoint URI and client id.
The OPC UA Client endpoint is configured using URI syntax:
milo-client:endpointUri
with the following path and query parameters:
222.2.1. Path Parameters (1 parameters):
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| endpointUri | Required The OPC UA server endpoint | String |
222.2.2. Query Parameters (27 parameters):
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| clientId (common) | A virtual client id to force the creation of a new connection instance | String | |
| defaultAwaitWrites (common) | Default await setting for writes | false | boolean |
| discoveryEndpointSuffix (common) | A suffix for endpoint URI when discovering | String | |
| discoveryEndpointUri (common) | An alternative discovery URI | String | |
| method (common) | The method definition (see Method ID) | ExpandedNodeId | |
| node (common) | The node definition (see Node ID) | ExpandedNodeId | |
| samplingInterval (common) | The sampling interval in milliseconds | Double | |
| 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 |
| allowedSecurityPolicies (client) | A set of allowed security policy URIs. Default is to accept all and use the highest. | String | |

222.3.1. Discovery
If the server uses a dedicated discovery endpoint (e.g. /discovery), which may support different (less secure) security policies, then you can make use of this via the parameter discoveryEndpointSuffix, which will be appended to the endpointUri. Or by using an explicit discoveryEndpointUri.
222.3.2. Overriding the host name
The client uses the host information from the endpoint information, queried from the server. However in some situations this endpoint URI might be different, and wrong from the point of view of the connecting client (e.g. an internal hostname).
In this case it is possible to set the parameter overrideHost to true, which will take the discovered endpoint information, but override the host information with the value of the original URI.
222.3.3. Node ID
In order to define a target node a namespace and node id is required. In previous versions this was possible by specifying nodeId and either namespaceUri or namespaceIndex. However this only allowed for using string based node IDs. And while this configuration is still possible, the newer one is preferred.
The new approach is to specify a full namespace+node ID in the format ns=1;i=1 which also allows to use the other node ID formats (like numeric, GUID/UUID or opaque). If the node parameter is used the older ones must not be used. The syntax of this node format is a set of key=value pairs delimited by a semi-colon (;).
Exactly one namespace and one node id key must be used. See the following table for possible keys:
| Key | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ns | namespace | Numeric namespace index |
| nsu | namespace | Namespace URI |
| s | node | String node ID |
| i | node | Numeric node ID |
| g | node | GUID/UUID node ID |
| b | node | Base64 encoded string for opaque node ID |
As the values generated by the syntax cannot be transparently encoded into a URI parameter value, it is necessary to escape them. However Camel allows to wrap the actual value inside RAW(…), which makes escaping unnecessary. For example:
milo-client:tcp://user:password@localhost:12345?node=RAW(nsu=http://foo.bar;s=foo/bar)
222.3.4. Method ID
It is possible to perform methods calls on OPC UA nodes. If the parameter method is set to the Node ID of a method call (the node ID must be set to the parent object in this case), then a method call will be performed instead of a write operation.
Input parameters are taken from the body:
-
If the body is null, then an empty
Variant[]will be used -
If the body is a
Variant[], then it will be used as is -
If the body is a
Variant, then it will be wrapped in aVariant[]array -
Otherwise the body will be converted into a
Variantand wrapped in an array ofVariant[]
222.3.5. Security policies
When setting the allowing security policies is it possible to use the well known OPC UA URIs (e.g. http://opcfoundation.org/UA/SecurityPolicy#Basic128Rsa15) or to use the Milo enum literals (e.g. None). Specifying an unknown security policy URI or enum is an error.
The known security policy URIs and enum literals are can be seen here: SecurityPolicy.java
Note: In any case security policies are considered case sensitive.
