Camel Dropbox component
Copia collegamento

Available as of Camel 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>
