This is a question on stackoverflow as well: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18698802/redis-wrong-serialization-using-the-camel-redis
I'm playing with camel and redis. I have a very short route: from("timer://foo?period=5s") .to("http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/all_day.geojson") .split().method(SplitFeatures.class,"splitMessage") .to("spring-redis://localhost:6379?command=SET&serializer=#serializer"); Where splitMessage is the following: public static List splitMessage(@Body String body) throws IOException { List answer = new ArrayList(); JsonParser parser=new JsonParser(); JsonObject jo= (JsonObject)parser.parse(body); // I care only for the features array JsonArray features=jo.get("features").getAsJsonArray(); for (JsonElement feature: features) { Message msg=new DefaultMessage(); JsonObject jof=feature.getAsJsonObject(); // get the key String id=jof.get("id").getAsString().toString(); System.out.print(id); msg.setHeader(RedisConstants.KEY, id); msg.setHeader(RedisConstants.VALUE, jof.toString()); answer.add(msg); } return answer; } Everything runs smoothly, but when I check the redis db I see that the key is: "\xac\xed\x00\x05t\x00\nci11361338" and the same prefix "\xac\xed\x00\x05t\x00" is in the value. Obviously the those printed by the System.out look fine. As you see I tried to add a serializer, a StringRedisSerializer that I defined in the Main like this: Main main = new Main(); main.bind("serializer", new StringRedisSerializer()); But the result is the same (also using GenericToStringSerializer). Is there something I'm missing? -- View this message in context: http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/camel-redis-strings-serialization-tp5738994.html Sent from the Camel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
