Chapter 96. Ref


Ref Component

The ref: component is used for lookup of existing endpoints bound in the Registry.

URI format

ref:someName

Where someName is the name of an endpoint in the Registry (usually, but not always, the Spring registry). If you are using the Spring registry, someName would be the bean ID of an endpoint in the Spring registry.

Runtime lookup

This component can be used when you need dynamic discovery of endpoints in the Registry where you can compute the URI at runtime. Then you can look up the endpoint using the following code:
   // lookup the endpoint
   String myEndpointRef = "bigspenderOrder";
   Endpoint endpoint = context.getEndpoint("ref:" + myEndpointRef);
   
   Producer producer = endpoint.createProducer();
   Exchange exchange = producer.createExchange();
   exchange.getIn().setBody(payloadToSend);
   // send the exchange
   producer.process(exchange);
   ...
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
And you could have a list of endpoints defined in the Registry such as:
  <camelContext id="camel" xmlns="http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring">
      <endpoint id="normalOrder" uri="activemq:order.slow"/>
      <endpoint id="bigspenderOrder" uri="activemq:order.high"/>
      ...
  </camelContext>

Sample

In the sample below we use the ref: in the URI to reference the endpoint with the spring ID, endpoint2:
<bean id="mybean" class="org.apache.camel.spring.example.DummyBean">
  <property name="endpoint" ref="endpoint1"/>
</bean>

<camelContext id="camel" xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring">
  <jmxAgent id="agent" disabled="true"/>
  <endpoint id="endpoint1" uri="direct:start"/>
  <endpoint id="endpoint2" uri="mock:end"/>

  <route>
    <from ref="endpoint1"/>
    <to uri="ref:endpoint2"/>
  </route>
</camelContext>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
You could, of course, have used the ref attribute instead:
      <to ref="endpoint2"/>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
Which is the more common way to write it.
