Chapter 357. ZooKeeper Component
Available as of Camel version 2.9
The ZooKeeper component allows interaction with a ZooKeeper cluster and exposes the following features to Camel:
- Creation of nodes in any of the ZooKeeper create modes.
-
Get and Set the data contents of arbitrary cluster nodes (data being set must be convertible to
byte[]). - Create and retrieve the list the child nodes attached to a particular node.
-
A Distributed
RoutePolicythat leverages a Leader election coordinated by ZooKeeper to determine if exchanges should get processed.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-zookeeper</artifactId>
<version>x.x.x</version>
<!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>357.1. URI format
zookeeper://zookeeper-server[:port][/path][?options]
The path from the URI specifies the node in the ZooKeeper server (a.k.a. znode) that will be the target of the endpoint:
357.2. Options
The ZooKeeper component supports 2 options which are listed below.
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| configuration (advanced) | To use a shared ZooKeeperConfiguration | ZooKeeperConfiguration | |
| 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 |
The ZooKeeper endpoint is configured using URI syntax:
zookeeper:serverUrls/path
with the following path and query parameters:
357.2.1. Path Parameters (2 parameters):
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| serverUrls | Required The zookeeper server hosts (multiple servers can be separated by comma) | String | |
| path | Required The node in the ZooKeeper server (aka znode) | String |
357.2.2. Query Parameters (12 parameters):
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| awaitExistence (common) | Deprecated Not in use | true | boolean |
| listChildren (common) | Whether the children of the node should be listed | false | boolean |
| timeout (common) | The time interval to wait on connection before timing out. | 5000 | int |
| backoff (consumer) | The time interval to backoff for after an error before retrying. | 5000 | long |
| 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 |
| repeat (consumer) | Should changes to the znode be 'watched' and repeatedly processed. | false | boolean |
| sendEmptyMessageOnDelete (consumer) | Upon the delete of a znode, should an empty message be send to the consumer | true | boolean |
| exceptionHandler (consumer) | To let the consumer use a custom ExceptionHandler. Notice if the option bridgeErrorHandler is enabled then this options 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 | |
| create (producer) | Should the endpoint create the node if it does not currently exist. | false | boolean |
| createMode (producer) | The create mode that should be used for the newly created node | EPHEMERAL | String |
| synchronous (advanced) | Sets whether synchronous processing should be strictly used, or Camel is allowed to use asynchronous processing (if supported). | false | boolean |
357.3. Use cases
357.3.1. Reading from a znode
The following snippet will read the data from the znode/somepath/somenode/ provided that it already exists. The data retrieved will be placed into an exchange and passed onto the rest of the route:
from("zookeeper://localhost:39913/somepath/somenode").to("mock:result");If the node does not yet exist then a flag can be supplied to have the endpoint await its creation:
from("zookeeper://localhost:39913/somepath/somenode?awaitCreation=true").to("mock:result");357.3.2. Reading from a znode (additional Camel 2.10 onwards)
When data is read due to a WatchedEvent received from the ZooKeeper ensemble, the CamelZookeeperEventType header holds ZooKeeper’s EventType value from that WatchedEvent. If the data is read initially (not triggered by a WatchedEvent) the CamelZookeeperEventType header will not be set.
357.3.3. Writing to a znode
The following snippet will write the payload of the exchange into the znode at /somepath/somenode/ provided that it already exists:
from("direct:write-to-znode")
.to("zookeeper://localhost:39913/somepath/somenode");
For flexibility, the endpoint allows the target znode to be specified dynamically as a message header. If a header keyed by the string CamelZooKeeperNode is present then the value of the header will be used as the path to the znode on the server. For instance using the same route definition above, the following code snippet will write the data not to /somepath/somenode but to the path from the header /somepath/someothernode.
the testPayload must be convertible to byte[] as the data stored in ZooKeeper is byte based.
Object testPayload = ...
template.sendBodyAndHeader("direct:write-to-znode", testPayload, "CamelZooKeeperNode", "/somepath/someothernode");
To also create the node if it does not exist the create option should be used.
from("direct:create-and-write-to-znode")
.to("zookeeper://localhost:39913/somepath/somenode?create=true");
Starting version 2.11 it is also possible to delete a node using the header CamelZookeeperOperation by setting it to DELETE:
from("direct:delete-znode")
.setHeader(ZooKeeperMessage.ZOOKEEPER_OPERATION, constant("DELETE"))
.to("zookeeper://localhost:39913/somepath/somenode");or equivalently:
<route>
<from uri="direct:delete-znode" />
<setHeader headerName="CamelZookeeperOperation">
<constant>DELETE</constant>
</setHeader>
<to uri="zookeeper://localhost:39913/somepath/somenode" />
</route>
ZooKeeper nodes can have different types; they can be 'Ephemeral' or 'Persistent' and 'Sequenced' or 'Unsequenced'. For further information of each type you can check here. By default endpoints will create unsequenced, ephemeral nodes, but the type can be easily manipulated via a uri config parameter or via a special message header. The values expected for the create mode are simply the names from the CreateMode enumeration:
-
PERSISTENT -
PERSISTENT_SEQUENTIAL -
EPHEMERAL -
EPHEMERAL_SEQUENTIAL
For example to create a persistent znode via the URI config:
from("direct:create-and-write-to-persistent-znode")
.to("zookeeper://localhost:39913/somepath/somenode?create=true&createMode=PERSISTENT");
or using the header CamelZookeeperCreateMode.
the testPayload must be convertible to byte[] as the data stored in ZooKeeper is byte based.
Object testPayload = ...
template.sendBodyAndHeader("direct:create-and-write-to-persistent-znode", testPayload, "CamelZooKeeperCreateMode", "PERSISTENT");357.4. ZooKeeper enabled Route policies
ZooKeeper allows for very simple and effective leader election out of the box. This component exploits this election capability in a RoutePolicy to control when and how routes are enabled. This policy would typically be used in fail-over scenarios, to control identical instances of a route across a cluster of Camel based servers. A very common scenario is a simple 'Master-Slave' setup where there are multiple instances of a route distributed across a cluster but only one of them, that of the master, should be running at a time. If the master fails, a new master should be elected from the available slaves and the route in this new master should be started.
The policy uses a common znode path across all instances of the RoutePolicy that will be involved in the election. Each policy writes its id into this node and Zookeeper will order the writes in the order it received them. The policy then reads the listing of the node to see what position of its id; this position is used to determine if the route should be started or not. The policy is configured at startup with the number of route instances that should be started across the cluster and if its position in the list is less than this value then its route will be started. For a Master-slave scenario, the route is configured with 1 route instance and only the first entry in the listing will start its route. All policies watch for updates to the listing and if the listing changes they recalculate if their route should be started. For more info on Zookeeper’s leader election capability see this page.
The following example uses the node /someapplication/somepolicy for the election and is set up to start only the top '1' entries in the node listing i.e. elect a master:
ZooKeeperRoutePolicy policy = new ZooKeeperRoutePolicy("zookeeper:localhost:39913/someapp/somepolicy", 1);
from("direct:policy-controlled")
.routePolicy(policy)
.to("mock:controlled");There are currently 3 policies defined in the component, with different SLAs:
-
ZooKeeperRoutePolicy -
CuratorLeaderRoutePolicy(since 2.19) -
MultiMasterCuratorLeaderRoutePolicy(since 2.19)
ZooKeeperRoutePolicy supports multiple active nodes, but it’s activation kicks in only after a Camel component and its correspondent Consumer have already been started, this introduces, depending on your routes definition, the risk that you component can already start consuming events and producing `Exchange`s, before the policy could estabilish that the node should not be activated.
CuratorLeaderRoutePolicy supports only a single active node, but it’s bound to a different CamelContext lifecycle method; this Policy kicks in before any route or consumer is started thus you can be sure that no even is processed before the Policy takes its decision.
MultiMasterCuratorLeaderRoutePolicy support multiple active nodes, and it’s bound to the same lifecycle method as CuratorLeaderRoutePolicy; this Policy kicks in before any route or consumer is started thus you can be sure that no even is processed before the Policy takes its decision.
