Getting ready

Define your desired routing logic as described in either the Using Camel in a Java application recipe, or the Embedding Camel in a Spring application recipe.

How to do it...

In the XML DSL, define an <endpoint/> element with an id attribute and an uri attribute setting that is set to the URI value you wish to share:

<camelContext xmlns="...">
 <endpoint id="restfulOrdersService"
 uri="jetty:http://localhost:8080/orders"/>
  <route>
    <from ref="restfulOrdersService"/>
    <!-- ... -->
  </route>
</camelContext>

If using the Java DSL, simply define the URI as a String within RouteBuilder configure() method:

String restfulOrdersService =
    "jetty:http://localhost:8080/orders";

from(restfulOrdersService) //...
