Chapter 125. RSS
RSS Component
The rss: component is used for polling RSS feeds. Apache Camel will default poll the feed every 60th seconds.
Note: The component currently only supports polling (consuming) feeds.
Note
Camel-rss internally uses a patched version of ROME hosted on ServiceMix to solve some OSGi class loading issues.
Camel on EAP deployment
This component is supported by the Camel on EAP (Wildfly Camel) framework, which offers a simplified deployment model on the Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP) container. For details of this model, see chapter "Apache Camel on Red Hat JBoss EAP" in "Deploying into a Web Server".
URI format
rss:rssUri
Where
rssUri
is the URI to the RSS feed to poll.
You can append query options to the URI in the following format,
?option=value&option=value&...
Options
Property | Default | Description |
---|---|---|
splitEntries
|
true
|
If true , Apache Camel splits a feed into its individual entries and returns each entry, poll by poll. For example, if a feed contains seven entries, Apache Camel returns the first entry on the first poll, the second entry on the second poll, and so on. When no more entries are left in the feed, Apache Camel contacts the remote RSS URI to obtain a new feed. If false , Apache Camel obtains a fresh feed on every poll and returns all of the feed's entries.
|
filter
|
true
|
Use in combination with the splitEntries option in order to filter returned entries. By default, Apache Camel applies the UpdateDateFilter filter, which returns only new entries from the feed, ensuring that the consumer endpoint never receives an entry more than once. The filter orders the entries chronologically, with the newest returned last.
|
throttleEntries
|
true
|
Camel 2.5: Sets whether all entries identified in a single feed poll should be delivered immediately. If true, only one entry is processed per consumer.delay. Only applicable when splitEntries is set to true. |
lastUpdate
|
null
|
Use in combination with the filter option to block entries earlier than a specific date/time (uses the entry.updated timestamp). The format is: yyyy-MM-ddTHH:MM:ss . Example: 2007-12-24T17:45:59 .
|
feedHeader
|
true
|
Specifies whether to add the ROME SyndFeed object as a header.
|
sortEntries
|
false
|
If splitEntries is true , this specifies whether to sort the entries by updated date.
|
consumer.delay
|
60000
|
Delay in milliseconds between each poll. |
consumer.initialDelay
|
1000
|
Milliseconds before polling starts. |
consumer.userFixedDelay
|
false
|
Set to true to use fixed delay between pools, otherwise fixed rate is used. See ScheduledExecutorService in JDK for details.
|
Exchange data types
Apache Camel initializes the In body on the Exchange with a ROME
SyndFeed
. Depending on the value of the splitEntries
flag, Apache Camel returns either a SyndFeed
with one SyndEntry
or a java.util.List
of SyndEntrys
.
Option | Value | Behavior |
---|---|---|
splitEntries
|
true
|
A single entry from the current feed is set in the exchange. |
splitEntries
|
false
|
The entire list of entries from the current feed is set in the exchange. |
Message Headers
Header | Description |
---|---|
CamelRssFeed
|
Apache Camel 2.0: The entire SyncFeed object.

RSS Dataformat
The RSS component ships with an RSS dataformat that can be used to convert between String (as XML) and ROME RSS model objects.
- marshal = from ROME
SyndFeed
to XMLString
- unmarshal = from XML
String
to ROMESyndFeed
A route using this would look something like this:
from("rss:file:src/test/data/rss20.xml?splitEntries=false&consumer.delay=1000").marshal().rss().to("mock:marshal");
The purpose of this feature is to make it possible to use Apache Camel's lovely built-in expressions for manipulating RSS messages. As shown below, an XPath expression can be used to filter the RSS message:
// only entries with Apache Camel in the title will get through the filter from("rss:file:src/test/data/rss20.xml?splitEntries=true&consumer.delay=100") .marshal().rss().filter().xpath("//item/title[contains(.,'Camel')]").to("mock:result");
Query parameters
If the URL for the RSS feed uses query parameters, this component will understand them as well, for example if the feed uses
alt=rss
, then you can for example do from("rss:http://someserver.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss&splitEntries=false&consumer.delay=1000").to("bean:rss");
Filtering entries
You can filter out entries quite easily using XPath, as shown in the data format section above. You can also exploit Apache Camel's Bean Integration to implement your own conditions. For instance, a filter equivalent to the XPath example above would be:
// only entries with Camel in the title will get through the filter from("rss:file:src/test/data/rss20.xml?splitEntries=true&consumer.delay=100"). filter().method("myFilterBean", "titleContainsCamel").to("mock:result");
The custom bean for this would be:
public static class FilterBean { public boolean titleContainsCamel(@Body SyndFeed feed) { SyndEntry firstEntry = (SyndEntry) feed.getEntries().get(0); return firstEntry.getTitle().contains("Camel"); } }
