Chapter 42. MySQL Sink

Send data to a MySQL Database.

This Kamelet expects a JSON as body. The mapping between the JSON fields and parameters is done by key, so if you have the following query:

'INSERT INTO accounts (username,city) VALUES (:#username,:#city)'

The Kamelet needs to receive as input something like:

'{ "username":"oscerd", "city":"Rome"}'

42.2. Dependencies

At runtime, the mysql-sink Kamelet relies upon the presence of the following dependencies:

  • camel:jackson
  • camel:kamelet
  • camel:sql
  • mvn:org.apache.commons:commons-dbcp2:2.7.0.redhat-00001
  • mvn:mysql:mysql-connector-java

42.3. Usage

This section describes how you can use the mysql-sink.

42.3.1. Knative Sink

You can use the mysql-sink Kamelet as a Knative sink by binding it to a Knative object.

mysql-sink-binding.yaml

apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1
kind: KameletBinding
metadata:
  name: mysql-sink-binding
spec:
  source:
    ref:
      kind: Channel
      apiVersion: messaging.knative.dev/v1
      name: mychannel
  sink:
    ref:
      kind: Kamelet
      apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1
      name: mysql-sink
    properties:
      databaseName: "The Database Name"
      password: "The Password"
      query: "INSERT INTO accounts (username,city) VALUES (:#username,:#city)"
      serverName: "localhost"
      username: "The Username"

42.3.1.1. Prerequisite

Make sure you have "Red Hat Integration - Camel K" installed into the OpenShift cluster you’re connected to.

42.3.1.2. Procedure for using the cluster CLI

  1. Save the mysql-sink-binding.yaml file to your local drive, and then edit it as needed for your configuration.

  2. Run the sink by using the following command: 

    oc apply -f mysql-sink-binding.yaml

42.3.1.3. Procedure for using the Kamel CLI

Configure and run the sink by using the following command: 

kamel bind channel:mychannel mysql-sink -p "sink.databaseName=The Database Name" -p "sink.password=The Password" -p "sink.query=INSERT INTO accounts (username,city) VALUES (:#username,:#city)" -p "sink.serverName=localhost" -p "sink.username=The Username"

This command creates the KameletBinding in the current namespace on the cluster.

42.3.2. Kafka Sink

You can use the mysql-sink Kamelet as a Kafka sink by binding it to a Kafka topic.

mysql-sink-binding.yaml

apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1
kind: KameletBinding
metadata:
  name: mysql-sink-binding
spec:
  source:
    ref:
      kind: KafkaTopic
      apiVersion: kafka.strimzi.io/v1beta1
      name: my-topic
  sink:
    ref:
      kind: Kamelet
      apiVersion: camel.apache.org/v1alpha1
      name: mysql-sink
    properties:
      databaseName: "The Database Name"
      password: "The Password"
      query: "INSERT INTO accounts (username,city) VALUES (:#username,:#city)"
      serverName: "localhost"
      username: "The Username"

42.3.2.1. Prerequisites

Ensure that you’ve installed the AMQ Streams operator in your OpenShift cluster and created a topic named my-topic in the current namespace. Make also sure you have "Red Hat Integration - Camel K" installed into the OpenShift cluster you’re connected to.

42.3.2.2. Procedure for using the cluster CLI

  1. Save the mysql-sink-binding.yaml file to your local drive, and then edit it as needed for your configuration.

  2. Run the sink by using the following command: 

    oc apply -f mysql-sink-binding.yaml

42.3.2.3. Procedure for using the Kamel CLI

Configure and run the sink by using the following command: 

kamel bind kafka.strimzi.io/v1beta1:KafkaTopic:my-topic mysql-sink -p "sink.databaseName=The Database Name" -p "sink.password=The Password" -p "sink.query=INSERT INTO accounts (username,city) VALUES (:#username,:#city)" -p "sink.serverName=localhost" -p "sink.username=The Username"

This command creates the KameletBinding in the current namespace on the cluster.
