  • camel:kamelet

Camel JBang usage

Prerequisites

  • You’ve installed JBang.

  • You have executed the following command:

jbang app install camel@apache/camel

Supposing you have a file named route.yaml with this content:

- route:
    from:
      uri: "kamelet:timer-source"
      parameters:
        period: 10000
        message: 'test'
      steps:
        - to:
            uri: "kamelet:ftps-sink"

You can now run it directly through the following command

camel run route.yaml

FTPS Sink Kamelet Description

Authentication

This Kamelet uses username and password authentication to connect to FTPS (FTP over SSL/TLS) servers.

Secure Connection

FTPS provides secure file transfer over encrypted connections using SSL/TLS protocols.

Connection Configuration

Requires: - Connection host (FTPS server hostname) - Connection port (defaults to 21) - Username and password credentials - Directory name for file operations

File Transfer Options

  • Transfer Mode: ASCII (default) or Binary mode

  • Passive Mode: Can be enabled for firewall compatibility

  • File Existence Handling: Override (default), Append, Fail, or Ignore

  • Auto-create Directories: Automatically creates missing directories (enabled by default)

Optional Headers

In the header, you can optionally set the file / ce-file property to specify the name of the file to upload.

If you do not set the property in the header, the Kamelet uses a default naming convention.

The value is reduced to a single file name before use: any directory component is dropped, so reports/2026/data.csv is stored as data.csv. The file is always written inside the configured directory.
