The camel-timer source connector supports 17 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Required Priority

camel.source.path.timerName

The name of the timer

null

true

HIGH

camel.source.endpoint.bridgeErrorHandler

Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. By default the consumer will use the org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler to deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored.

false

false

MEDIUM

camel.source.endpoint.delay

Delay before first event is triggered.

1000L

false

MEDIUM

camel.source.endpoint.fixedRate

Events take place at approximately regular intervals, separated by the specified period.

false

false

MEDIUM

camel.source.endpoint.includeMetadata

Whether to include metadata in the exchange such as fired time, timer name, timer count etc. This information is default included.

true

false

MEDIUM

camel.source.endpoint.period

If greater than 0, generate periodic events every period.

1000L

false

MEDIUM

camel.source.endpoint.repeatCount

Specifies a maximum limit of number of fires. So if you set it to 1, the timer will only fire once. If you set it to 5, it will only fire five times. A value of zero or negative means fire forever.

0L

false

MEDIUM
