Chapter 6. Generating a catalog

Install the project dependencies:

./mvnw install

Run the project with the following command:

./mvnw package; java -jar ./target/catalog-generator-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar -o ./dist/camel-catalog -k 4.6.0 -m 4.6.0 -n "My Catalog"

This will generate a Catalog library containing:

In order to add multiple runtimes to the Catalog library, we can provide each runtime with its version using the following flags:

 -m,--main <version>               Camel Main version. If not specified,
                                   it will use the generator installed
                                   version
 -q,--quarkus <version>            Camel Extensions for Quarkus version
 -s,--springboot <version>         Camel SpringBoot version

For instance, running the following command will create a Catalog library with Camel Main 4.6.0 and Camel extensions for Quarkus 3.8.0:

./mvnw package; java -jar ./target/catalog-generator-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar -o ./dist/camel-catalog -k 4.6.0 -m 4.6.0 -q 3.8.0 -n "My Catalog"

For a different Kamelets catalog version, the --kamelets or -k flag can be specified.

./mvnw package; java -jar ./target/catalog-generator-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar -o ./dist/camel-catalog -k 4.5.0 -m 4.6.0  -n "My Catalog"

In VSCode, go to the settings page and look for “Kaoto”

In the TextField, provide the URL of the index.json file that specifies the location of the subsequent catalogs, for instance, the public Kaoto catalog can be used:

Restart Kaoto for the changes to have effect
