A.4. Content-based Router
Overview
A content-based router enables you to route messages to the appropriate destination, where the routing decision is based on the message contents. This pattern maps to the corresponding content-based router pattern in Apache Camel.
Figure A.1. Content-based Router Pattern

Example ServiceMix EIP route
Example A.1, “ServiceMix EIP Content-based Route” shows how to define a content-based router using the ServicMix EIP component. If a
test:echo element is present in the message body, the message is routed to the http://test/pipeline/endpoint endpoint. Otherwise, the message is routed to the test:recipients endpoint.
Example A.1. ServiceMix EIP Content-based Route
<eip:content-based-router service="test:router" endpoint="endpoint">
<eip:rules>
<eip:routing-rule>
<eip:predicate>
<eip:xpath-predicate xpath="count(/test:echo) = 1" namespaceContext="#nsContext" />
</eip:predicate>
<eip:target>
<eip:exchange-target uri="endpoint:test:pipeline:endpoint" />
</eip:target>
</eip:routing-rule>
<eip:routing-rule>
<!-- There is no predicate, so this is the default destination -->
<eip:target>
<eip:exchange-target service="test:recipients" />
</eip:target>
</eip:routing-rule>
</eip:rules>
</eip:content-based-router>Equivalent Apache Camel XML route
Example A.2, “Apache Camel Content-based Router Using XML Configuration” shows how to define an equivalent route using Apache Camel XML configuration.
Example A.2. Apache Camel Content-based Router Using XML Configuration
<route>
<from uri="jbi:endpoint:http://progress.com/demos/test/router/endpoint"/>
<choice>
<when>
<xpath>count(/test:echo) = 1</xpath>
<to uri="jbi:endpoint:http://progress.com/demos/test/pipeline/endpoint"/>
</when>
<otherwise>
<!-- This is the default destination -->
<to uri="jbi:service:http://progress.com/demos/test/recipients"/>
</otherwise>
</choice>
</route>Equivalent Apache Camel Java DSL route
Example A.3, “Apache Camel Content-based Router Using Java DSL” shows how to define an equivalent route using the Apache Camel Java DSL.
Example A.3. Apache Camel Content-based Router Using Java DSL
from("jbi:endpoint:http://progress.com/demos/test/router/endpoint").
choice().when(xpath("count(/test:echo) = 1")).to("jbi:endpoint:http://progress.com/demos/test/pipeline/endpoint").
otherwise().to("jbi:service:http://progress.com/demos/test/recipients");
