= camel-jt400-kafka-connector sink configuration

When using camel-jt400-kafka-connector as sink make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for the connector:

[source,xml]
----
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-jt400-kafka-connector</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <!-- use the same version as your Camel Kafka connector version -->
</dependency>
----

To use this Sink connector in Kafka connect you'll need to set the following connector.class

[source,java]
----
connector.class=org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector.jt400.CamelJt400SinkConnector
----


The camel-jt400 sink connector supports 20 options, which are listed below.



[width="100%",cols="2,5,^1,1,1",options="header"]
|===
| Name | Description | Default | Required | Priority
| *camel.sink.path.userID* | Returns the ID of the IBM i user. | null | true | HIGH
| *camel.sink.path.password* | Returns the password of the IBM i user. | null | true | HIGH
| *camel.sink.path.systemName* | Returns the name of the IBM i system. | null | true | HIGH
| *camel.sink.path.objectPath* | Returns the fully qualified integrated file system path name of the target object of this endpoint. | null | true | HIGH
| *camel.sink.path.type* | Whether to work with data queues or remote program call One of: [DTAQ] [PGM] [SRVPGM] [MSGQ] | null | true | HIGH
| *camel.sink.endpoint.ccsid* | Sets the CCSID to use for the connection with the IBM i system. | null | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.format* | Sets the data format for sending messages. One of: [text] [binary] | "text" | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.guiAvailable* | Sets whether IBM i prompting is enabled in the environment running Camel. | false | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.keyed* | Whether to use keyed or non-keyed data queues. | false | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.searchKey* | Search key for keyed data queues. | null | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.lazyStartProducer* | Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel's routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing. | false | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.outputFieldsIdxArray* | Specifies which fields (program parameters) are output parameters. | null | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.outputFieldsLengthArray* | Specifies the fields (program parameters) length as in the IBM i program definition. | null | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.procedureName* | Procedure name from a service program to call | null | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.basicPropertyBinding* | Whether the endpoint should use basic property binding (Camel 2.x) or the newer property binding with additional capabilities | false | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.synchronous* | Sets whether synchronous processing should be strictly used, or Camel is allowed to use asynchronous processing (if supported). | false | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.sink.endpoint.secured* | Whether connections to IBM i are secured with SSL. | false | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.component.jt400.lazyStartProducer* | Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel's routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing. | false | false | MEDIUM
| *camel.component.jt400.basicPropertyBinding* | Whether the component should use basic property binding (Camel 2.x) or the newer property binding with additional capabilities | false | false | LOW
| *camel.component.jt400.connectionPool* | Default connection pool used by the component. Note that this pool is lazily initialized. This is because in a scenario where the user always provides a pool, it would be wasteful for Camel to initialize and keep an idle pool. | null | false | MEDIUM
