A Camel is very strong

Camel mind map
Apache Camel is an extremely well thought framework for messaging. After re-reading the start guide I thought it would be good to draw a mind map of the main concepts and how they relate to each other.

As I drawing on a piece of paper, my little daughter joined me, started to read out loud what she saw as the main title, Camel, and commented "a Camel is very strong" 😊 . Back to the concepts, from the top and going down we have:

Recursivity and Observables: yes it is possible

When writing a loop using a paging API to fetch data for an Angular app, I felt so frustrated  that I was very close to going back to Promises. I came across lot of questions on the web but no convincing answers: some even proposing to subscribe to an Observable within the service implementation. However, I did not abandon  Observables to return using Promises thanks to this very informative comparison . From there I picked an  excellent article on reactive programming  with RxJava which gave me hope. So I kept on trying... Achieving both reactivity and recursivity without understanding the fundamentals of RxJs operators, was a struggle. After focussing on the use of the map and mergeMap operators, I managed a first implementation very similar to how I would write a solution to the same problem using Promises. To help me and others who have the same questions, I created a repository of angular code snippets . One is about  RxJs Recursive Observable . ...

Looking for a web framework ...

I recently attended the Rich Web Applications course given by Spring Source, and I was surprised that the technology stack employed in the course was "equivalent" to what I used 8 years ago! It's equivalent in the sense that: Struts 1.2 was then the framework for implementing the Front Controller pattern Tiles with JSPs and JSTL was the view mechanism The course used Spring MVC which is the MODERN equivalent of Struts. Spring MVC is much more powerful but the functionality it provides is about the same as Struts. The element that really surprised me was the fact that Tiles was the proposed mechanism for the view layer. I personally find Tiles to be powerful but given the elapsed time, I was expecting something new to replace it. Why Tiles may not be so appropriate these days? It relies on JSPs which are not trivial to test outside a web container. The tiles XML where definitions go, is very similar to a Spring beans file. Nowadays you could expect a n...
