I am using Apache Camel to assist with capturing message data emitted by a third party software package. In this particular instance, I only need to capture what is produced by the software, there is no receiver on the other end (really no "end" to go to).
So, I tried to set up a route with just the "from" endpoint and no "to" endpoint. Apparently this is incorrect usage as I received the following exception:
[2018-08-15 11:08:03.205] ERROR: string.Launcher:191 - Exception

How do I set up a camel route that allows me to intercept (capture) the message traffic coming from the source, and not send it "to" anything? There is no need for a receiver. What would be an appropriate "to" endpoint that just drops everything it receives?
The exception suggestion of to("log:foo")
. What does this do?
You can see if the Stub
component can help
http://camel.apache.org/stub.html
Example:
from("...")
.to("stub:nowhere");
The exception suggestion of to("log:foo"). What does this do?
It sends your route messages to an endpoint with a component of type log: ( http://camel.apache.org/log.html ) - component which basically dumps message contents (body and/or headers and/or properties) to your log file using appropriate log category.
If you just want to drop everything received, it's a good choice:
to("log:com.company.camel.sample?level=TRACE&showAll=true&multiline=true")
Apparently if you're under Linux, you can also redirect to /dev/null but i have not the exact syntax.
something like this (untested) can also be used:
to( "file:/dev/null")
I would use mock:dummy . Don't actually see any advantages in stub. Mock is more powerful for that purpose, see http://camel.apache.org/mock.html
