Chapter 85. LevelDB
LevelDB
Available as of Camel 2.10
Leveldb is a very lightweight and embedable key value database. It allows together with Camel to provide persistent support for various Camel features such as Aggregator.
Current features it provides:
- LevelDBAggregationRepository
Using LevelDBAggregationRepository
LevelDBAggregationRepository
is an AggregationRepository
which on the fly persists the aggregated messages. This ensures that you will not loose messages, as the default aggregator will use an in memory only AggregationRepository
.
It has the following options:
Option | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
repositoryName
|
String |
A mandatory repository name. Allows you to use a shared LevelDBFile for multiple repositories.
|
persistentFileName
|
String | Filename for the persistent storage. If no file exists on startup a new file is created. |
levelDBFile
|
LevelDBFile |
Use an existing configured org.apache.camel.component.leveldb.LevelDBFile instance.
|
sync
|
boolean | Camel 2.12: Whether or not the LevelDBFile should sync on write or not. Default is false. By sync on write ensures that its always waiting for all writes to be spooled to disk and thus will not loose updates. See LevelDB docs for more details about async vs sync writes. |
returnOldExchange
|
boolean |
Whether the get operation should return the old existing Exchange if any existed. By default this option is false to optimize as we do not need the old exchange when aggregating.
|
useRecovery
|
boolean |
Whether or not recovery is enabled. This option is by default true . When enabled the Camel Aggregator automatic recover failed aggregated exchange and have them resubmitted.
|
recoveryInterval
|
long | If recovery is enabled then a background task is run every x'th time to scan for failed exchanges to recover and resubmit. By default this interval is 5000 millis. |
maximumRedeliveries
|
int |
Allows you to limit the maximum number of redelivery attempts for a recovered exchange. If enabled then the Exchange will be moved to the dead letter channel if all redelivery attempts failed. By default this option is disabled. If this option is used then the deadLetterUri option must also be provided.
|
deadLetterUri
|
String |
An endpoint uri for a Dead Letter Channel where exhausted recovered Exchanges will be moved. If this option is used then the maximumRedeliveries option must also be provided.
|
The
repositoryName
option must be provided. Then either the persistentFileName
or the levelDBFile
must be provided.
What is preserved when persisting
LevelDBAggregationRepository
will only preserve any Serializable
compatible data types. If a data type is not such a type its dropped and a WARN
is logged. And it only persists the Message
body and the Message
headers. The Exchange
properties are not persisted.
Recovery
The
LevelDBAggregationRepository
will by default recover any failed Exchange. It does this by having a background tasks that scans for failed Exchanges in the persistent store. You can use the checkInterval
option to set how often this task runs. The recovery works as transactional which ensures that Camel will try to recover and redeliver the failed Exchange. Any Exchange which was found to be recovered will be restored from the persistent store and resubmitted and send out again.
The following headers is set when an Exchange is being recovered/redelivered:
Header | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Exchange.REDELIVERED
|
Boolean | Is set to true to indicate the Exchange is being redelivered. |
Exchange.REDELIVERY_COUNTER
|
Integer | The redelivery attempt, starting from 1. |
Only when an Exchange has been successfully processed it will be marked as complete which happens when the
confirm
method is invoked on the AggregationRepository
. This means if the same Exchange fails again it will be kept retried until it success.
You can use option
maximumRedeliveries
to limit the maximum number of redelivery attempts for a given recovered Exchange. You must also set the deadLetterUri
option so Camel knows where to send the Exchange when the maximumRedeliveries
was hit.
You can see some examples in the unit tests of camel-leveldb, for example this test.
Using LevelDBAggregationRepository in Java DSL
In this example we want to persist aggregated messages in the
target/data/leveldb.dat
file.
public void configure() throws Exception { // create the leveldb repo LevelDBAggregationRepository repo = new LevelDBAggregationRepository("repo1", "target/data/leveldb.dat"); // here is the Camel route where we aggregate from("direct:start") .aggregate(header("id"), new MyAggregationStrategy()) // use our created leveldb repo as aggregation repository .completionSize(5).aggregationRepository(repo) .to("mock:aggregated"); }
Using LevelDBAggregationRepository in Spring XML
The same example but using Spring XML instead:
<!-- a persistent aggregation repository using camel-leveldb --> <bean id="repo" class="org.apache.camel.component.leveldb.LevelDBAggregationRepository"> <!-- store the repo in the leveldb.dat file --> <property name="persistentFileName" value="target/data/leveldb.dat"/> <!-- and use repo2 as the repository name --> <property name="repositoryName" value="repo2"/> </bean> <!-- aggregate the messages using this strategy --> <bean id="myAggregatorStrategy" class="org.apache.camel.component.leveldb.LevelDBSpringAggregateTest$MyAggregationStrategy"/> <!-- this is the camel routes --> <camelContext id="camel" xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring"> <route> <from uri="direct:start"/> <!-- aggregate using our strategy and leveldb repo, and complete when we have 5 messages aggregated --> <aggregate strategyRef="myAggregatorStrategy" aggregationRepositoryRef="repo" completionSize="5"> <!-- correlate by header with the key id --> <correlationExpression><header>id</header></correlationExpression> <!-- send aggregated messages to the mock endpoint --> <to uri="mock:aggregated"/> </aggregate> </route> </camelContext>
Dependencies
To use LevelDB in your camel routes you need to add the a dependency on camel-leveldb.
If you use maven you could just add the following to your pom.xml, substituting the version number for the latest & greatest release (see the download page for the latest versions).
<dependency> <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId> <artifactId>camel-leveldb</artifactId> <version>2.10.0</version> </dependency>
