Endpoint Annotations Page edited by James Strachan Changes (1) h2. Endpoint Annotations As of *Camel 2.12* you can annotate [Endpoint] and Consumer classes so that their configuration documentation can be automatically generated by the camel-package-maven-plugin (rather like maven plugin goals get their parameters documented automatically). The documentation is then included into the jar as org/apache/camel/component/scheme.html as well as appearing in the maven site documentation as a project report. ...

Supported annotations Annotation Description @UriEndpoint Specifies that an endpoint is annotated with @UriParam and/or @UriParams annotations. Also specifies the default scheme to use in the generated documentation and the associated Consumer class for this endpoint @UriParam Used to annotate a parameter value; usually specified via ?foo=bar syntax in the URI strings in Camel. Used currently only on field declarations but in the future could be used on setter methods too. If no name is specified then the name of the field/setter property is used. @UriParams Specifies that a field is a nested object of one or more configuration parameters; then the class of this field should be annotated with one or more @UriParam or @UriParams annotations For example here is the TimerEndpoint, notice the use of these annotations and in its base classes. Not only are the annotations useful for automatically generating the documentation; we can use them to refine the validation of the code during configuration and they can be useful for tool providers so they can more easily introspect the configuration options. See the ComponentConfiguration documentation on the tooling aspect. Change Notification Preferences View Online | View Changes | Add Comment
