This example demonstrates how you can use Servlet to expose a http service in a Camel route, and run that in a servlet container such as Apache Tomcat.

The example can be built with

mvn clean install

The example can be run locally using the following Maven goal:

mvn clean install jetty:run

Then you can access the service from a web browser using the following url:

http://localhost:8080/

It is assumed a running Kubernetes platform is already running. If not you can find details how to get started.

The example can be built and deployed using a single goal:

mvn -Pf8-local-deploy

When the example runs in fabric8, you can use the OpenShift client tool to inspect the status

To list all the running pods:

oc get pods

Then find the name of the pod that runs this quickstart, and output the logs from the running pods with:

oc logs <name of pod>

You can also use the fabric8 web console to manage the running pods, and view logs and much more.

When the application is running, you can use a web browser to access the HTTP service. Assuming that you have a Vagrant setup you can access the REST service with http://war-camel-servlet-default.vagrant.f8/.

Notice: As it depends on your OpenShift setup, the hostname (route) might vary. Verify with oc get routes which hostname is valid for you.

You can find more details about running this quickstart on the website. This also includes instructions how to change the Docker image user and registry.
