Working with apache camel Bean in Quarkus framework - apache-camel

Question

I am trying to use apache camel with Quarkus. Previously I was using the spring-boot framework to develop camel integration. So there are lots of questions that I am still trying to figure out w.r.t. Quarkus framework.
Regarding: Bean
In spring-boot I could do something like this
#Configuration
public class JABXContextConfig {
#Bean
Unmarshaller jaxbUnmarshaller() throws JAXBException {
JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(MyPOJO.class );
Unmarshaller jaxbUnmarshaller = jaxbContext.createUnmarshaller();
return jaxbUnmarshaller;
}
}
and then I could inject it into the class using DI
#Component
public class MyRestServiceRoute extends RouteBuilder {
private final JaxbDataFormat jaxb;
#Autowired
public MyRestServiceRoute(JaxbDataFormat jaxb) throws Exception{
this.jaxb = jaxb;
}
....
}
QUESTION:
How can I do the same in the Quarkus framework?
P.S> I tried replacing #Configuration with #ApplicationScoped and #Bean with #Dependent but it's not working.
Thanks,

I recommend taking a read through the Quarkus CDI documentation:
https://quarkus.io/guides/cdi
https://quarkus.io/guides/cdi-reference
There's also a basic overview of using CDI to configure Camel:
https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/user-guide/bootstrap.html#_cdi
https://camel.apache.org/camel-quarkus/latest/user-guide/cdi.html
In your examples, #Bean could be replaced by a producer method like:
public class JaxbDataFormatProducer {
#ApplicationScoped
JaxbDataFormat jaxbDataFormat() {
return new JaxbDataFormat();
}
}
And the #Autowired constructor argument might look like this (If there’s only one constructor then there's actually no need for #Inject):
#ApplicationScoped
public class MyRestServiceRoute extends BaseRouteBuilder {
private final JaxbDataFormat jaxb;
#Inject
public MyRestServiceRoute(JaxbDataFormat jaxb) throws Exception{
super(properties);
this.jaxb = jaxb;
}
}
