Grzegorz Grzybek commented on CAMEL-16221: ------------------------------------------ Just to provide some summary: * if there are two slashes ({{//}}) after first colon, what follows is _always_ the _authority_ ({{java.net.URI#getAuthority()}}), so: ** {{file:/path/to/file.txt}} - authority is null and {{/path/to/file.txt}} is the path ** {{file://path/to/file.txt}} - {{path}} is the authority, {{/to/file.txt}} is the path ** {{file:///path/to/file.txt}} - authority is null and the path is {{/path/to/file.txt}} * if there's no slash after first colon, the URI is always _opaque_ - it never has any path ({{java.net.URI#getPath()}}), it has only three components: ** scheme ** scheme-specific part ** fragment * if there's a scheme, the URI is always absolute (whether or not there's a slash after scheme) * if there's no scheme, the URI is never absolute (even in {{java.net.URI.create("/hello")}}. > Rethink endpoints URI usage for camel internals > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: CAMEL-16221 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-16221 > Project: Camel > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: camel-core > Reporter: Luca Burgazzoli > Priority: Major > Fix For: 4.0 > > > As today URIs are the primary mechanism Camel uses internally to describe > endpoints but I think it is time to re-consider the dependency on URIs for > camel internals and leave the URIs as an external representation of endpoints > As example: > - the Endpoint DSL is required to generate the related endpoint URI to > leverage Camel's APIs but to create an endpoint, the schema and a map of > options, would be more than enough. > - components that wrap other components, such as kamelets, master & co may > need to re-create URIs to create instances of the delegated endpoints which > is cumbersome as there's lot of options to take into account (RAW, > url-encoding, placeholders) > - the YAML DSL and camel-kafka-connectors are using and Endpoint DSL alike > syntax where a user can define endpoints by scheme + option pairs without the > need of writing URIs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
