I have an apache camel application which runs as three identical services
in production environment for scalability. I want to add email server
polling to this application using camel-mail api. Since I dont want all
these three instances poll the server concurrently, I want to put some
locking mechanism before camel polls. However since mail consumers are
polling consumer, I can not use them in this situation. Is there an easy
way to do this ?
In short, I have a route like below:
from("imaps://mymail...")//This polls periodically
.to(Processmail.class)
But I need something like below in camel dsl
from("timer:mytimer")
.to("direct:checkDistributedLock")
.choice()
.when(header("gotlock").isEqualTo("true"))
.from("imaps://..") // can not use from here!!!
.end()
