tutorial simple route

In this tutorial, you learn how to create a Camel route.

Step 1: Create a route

• On the flows page click on "Actions menu" button and then "New route".
• Give the flow the name: "SimpleRoute".

Step 2: Configure a route

• On the "ROUTE" step click on the blue button to create a new route. This will open an XML Editor.
• Name the route "MoveFiles".
• Add the following XML in the XML Editor:

<route>
    <from uri="file:C:\messages\in"/>
    <log message="Received a new customer!"/>
    <to uri="file:C:\messages\out"/>
</route>

• Save the route
• Save the flow

Step 3: Test the route

• Start the flow on the flows page
• Save the XML below in C:\messages\in

<names>
    <name>
       <firstname>John</firstname>
       <lastname>Doe</lastname>
    </name>
    <name>
       <firstname>Michael</firstname>
       <lastname>Kay</lastname>
    </name>
    <name>
       <firstname>Jane</firstname>
       <lastname>Smith</lastname>
    </name>
</names>

The result is that the file is moved from the in directory to the out directory.
