Ever wonder how you can set up and hit a basic HTTPS endpoint with Camel? These directions are sure to help!

First, configure your RouteBuilder. This RouteBuilder calls for two methods. Those will be defined down below. It then polls a jetty HTTPS endpoint. When the jetty endpoint gets a hit, it sends a request to HTTPS endpoint deployed elsewhere.

public class MyRouteBuilder extends RouteBuilder{
	public void configure() {
		configureJetty();
		configureHttp4();
		from("jetty:https://0.0.0.0:8080/sample/?matchOnUriPrefix=true")
			.to("https4://example.com:8081/?q=ssl&bridgeEndpoint=true&throwExceptionOnFailure=false");
	}
}

Next, we need to define the SSL configuration for the jetty endpoint.

private void configureJetty() {
	KeyStoreParameters ksp = new KeyStoreParameters();
	ksp.setResource("\Projects\example\myJks.jks");
	ksp.setPassword("password");
	KeyManagersParameters kmp = new KeyManagersParameters();
	kmp.setKeyStore(ksp); kmp.setKeyPassword("keyPassword");
	SSLContextParameters scp = new SSLContextParameters();
	scp.setKeyManagers(kmp);
	JettyHttpComponent jettyComponent = getContext().getComponent("jetty", JettyHttpComponent.class);
	jettyComponent.setSslContextParameters(scp);
}

Finally, we need to define the SSL configuration to send to the HTTPS endpoint.

private void configureHttp4() {
	KeyStoreParameters ksp = new KeyStoreParameters();
	ksp.setResource("\Projects\example\exampleCa.jks");
	ksp.setPassword("password");
	TrustManagersParameters tmp = new TrustManagersParameters();
	tmp.setKeyStore(ksp);
	SSLContextParameters scp = new SSLContextParameters();
	scp.setTrustManagers(tmp);
	HttpComponent httpComponent = getContext().getComponent("https4", HttpComponent.class);
	httpComponent.setSslContextParameters(scp);
}
