[jira] [Commented] (CAMEL-11196) Camel connectors - Allow to configure in one place and let it figure out component vs endpoint level

["Luca Burgazzoli (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-11196?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16000858#comment-16000858 ] 

Luca Burgazzoli commented on CAMEL-11196:
-----------------------------------------

We may generate something like:

{code}
component.component-name.option1 = default-option-1
component.component-name. = default-option-2
component.component-name.configuration[my-component].my-option2 = not-default-anymore
{code}

Then the spring boot auto-configuration would:

- register and configure the component with ``component-name`` component as usual 
- register and configure number of bean according to the configuration map of the same type of the ``component-name`` but regitered with a different name so that they can be referenced by name as usual but with properties inherited from component-name (or maybe not) 

Of course the drawback is that the [my-component] won't get auto-completed y IDEs but this solution would give a good flexibility and you can get the name of the supported parameters, theirs default and the doc from the root configuration.

> A Camel connector can be configured on two levels
> - component
> - endpoint
> Just like a regular Camel component.
> But we should allow users to configure a connector in one place, and not worry about if its component or endpoint level. And then let camel-connector when it prepares the connector figure out all of this for you.
> This may require supporting loading configuration from external resource files such as .properties files etc. Or something else. But from end users we can make this easier.
