OPC UA Server

Since Camel 2.19

Both producer and consumer are supported

The Milo Server component provides an OPC UA server using the Eclipse Milo™ implementation.

Java 9+: This component requires Java 9+ at runtime.

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
    <artifactId>camel-milo</artifactId>
    <version>x.x.x</version>
    <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

Messages sent to the endpoint from Camel will be available from the OPC UA server to OPC UA Clients. Value write requests from OPC UA Client will trigger messages which are sent into Apache Camel.

The OPC UA Server component supports 20 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Type

applicationName (common)

The application name

String

applicationUri (common)

The application URI

String

bindAddresses (common)

Set the addresses of the local addresses the server should bind to

String

buildInfo (common)

Server build info

BuildInfo

certificate (common)

Server certificate

X509Certificate

certificateManager (common)

Server certificate manager

CertificateManager

certificateValidator (common)

Validator for client certificates

CertificateValidator

defaultCertificateValidator (common)

Validator for client certificates using default file based approach

String

enableAnonymousAuthentication (common)

Enable anonymous authentication, disabled by default

false

boolean

namespaceUri (common)

The URI of the namespace, defaults to urn:org:apache:camel

String

path (common)

The path to be appended to the end of the endpoint url. (doesn’t need to start with '/')

String

port (common)

The TCP port the server binds to

int

productUri (common)

The product URI

String

securityPolicies (common)

Security policies

Set

securityPoliciesById (common)

Security policies by URI or name. Multiple policies can be separated by comma.

String

userAuthenticationCredentials (common)

Set user password combinations in the form of user1:pwd1,user2:pwd2 Usernames and passwords will be URL decoded

String

usernameSecurityPolicyUri (common)

Set the UserTokenPolicy used when. The value can be one of: None, Basic128Rsa15, Basic256, Basic256Sha256, Aes128_Sha256_RsaOaep, Aes256_Sha256_RsaPss

SecurityPolicy

bridgeErrorHandler (consumer)

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

boolean

lazyStartProducer (producer)

Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing.

false

boolean

basicPropertyBinding (advanced)

Whether the component should use basic property binding (Camel 2.x) or the newer property binding with additional capabilities

false

boolean

URI format

milo-server:itemId[?options]

URI options

The OPC UA Server endpoint is configured using URI syntax:

milo-server:itemId

with the following path and query parameters:

Path Parameters (1 parameters):

Name Description Default Type

itemId

Required ID of the item

String

Query Parameters (6 parameters):

Name Description Default Type

bridgeErrorHandler (consumer)

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

boolean

exceptionHandler (consumer)

To let the consumer use a custom ExceptionHandler. Notice if the option bridgeErrorHandler is enabled then this option is not in use. By default the consumer will deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored.

ExceptionHandler

exchangePattern (consumer)

Sets the exchange pattern when the consumer creates an exchange. The value can be one of: InOnly, InOut, InOptionalOut

ExchangePattern

lazyStartProducer (producer)

Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing.

false

boolean

basicPropertyBinding (advanced)

Whether the endpoint should use basic property binding (Camel 2.x) or the newer property binding with additional capabilities

false

boolean

synchronous (advanced)

Sets whether synchronous processing should be strictly used, or Camel is allowed to use asynchronous processing (if supported).

false

boolean

Spring Boot Auto-Configuration

When using milo with Spring Boot make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for auto configuration:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.springboot</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-milo-starter</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
