Velocity report bound to Java objects


I have arranged for the following Camel route which unmarshals an XML file into a Java object (com.sample.Order):

  <route>
     <from uri="file:/data/in?fileName=order.xml&amp;noop=true"/>
     <unmarshal ref="transform-xml"/>
     <to uri="velocity:etc/MailBody.vm"/>
     <to uri="file:/data/out"/>
  </route>

Here is the MailBody.vm:

#set( $order = $body.get(0).get('com.sample.Order'))

Order status:
- Id: $order.id
- Price: $order.price

Tax: $order.tax

Details:
$order.description

When the Camel route is executed however the generated XML file does not parse the $order fields. Is there anything I miss or maybe this in not working in my camel version (2.15.3) ? Thanks

Solution

  • Try to modify your template like shown below:

    #set( $order = ${body.get(0).get("com.sample.Order")})

Order status:
- Id: ${order.id}
- Price: ${order.price}

Tax: ${order.tax}

Details:
${order.description}
