Lotus notes/Domino integration
Hello all,
I would like to integrate with IBM Lotus through Camel (read/write) but I am
not sure what is the simplest way to do so.
First investigations indicate that Lotus has a couple of ways to connect to,
mainly:
1-
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/library/ls-Java_access_pt1/index.html
Notes.jar : a JAVA library
2- http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/library/web-services2/ SOAP
Services: but those are not out of the box and need to be created
3-
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/library/ls-Java_access_pt1/index.html
Rest API through XPAges/Agents
4-
http://www.techrepublic.com/article/application-integration-create-an-odbc-connection-to-a-lotus-notes-database/5116212
ODBC driver
5- http://www.dominoguru.com/pages/domino_rest_xpages_part1.html REST using
XPages XAgets
All of them seem to be doable but as I has no experience with Lotus, it is
hard to judge which are possible/simple to use, what are the prons/cons for
each especially that I want to use Camel as an integration plateform?
Many thanks in advance for your help
Regards,
Ihab

In this case, you need a JDBC-ODBC bridge -->

Thanks again Charles,
Actually the JDBC driver would have been my preferred choice, but
https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21305841 it has been
deprecated unfortunately .
How about ODBC? can Camel support it?

Hi Ihab,
I have work with Lotus Notes/Domino a couple of years ago and know a
little bit the api ncso.jar used to connect using CORBA Technology and
IIOP protocol to Lotus Server. As this is based on Corba/IIOP, you
have a lot of flexibility as you will use natively the API of Lotus
but the counterpart is that as this is based on CORBA/IIOP, you should
take care about that.
If you plan to retrieve data from Lotus Notes (playing the role of a
kind of RDBMS database), then the approach using JDBC could be enough
--> http://www-12.lotus.com/ldd/doc/drivers/jdbc/1.0/jdbc.nsf/66208c256b4136a2852563c000646f8c?OpenView

Charles

Hello Charles,
Thanks for your quick and clear response.
To answer your question, I am looking to make Camel Read/Write data from/to
Lotus notes.
Did you try the first approach of integration with Lotus ? if yes, does the
API have any limitations that I should pay attention to?
thanks again for your answers
Regards,
Ihab

Hi Ihab,
What do you plan to do when you say "integrating" ? Is it Lotus Notes
who will use Apache Camel or you would like to use camel to integrate
a Lotus Notes (Domino) server ?
I do not know the REST or SOAP api of Lotus but the first approach
that you mention (java) is based on CORBA and IIOP. We do not have a
CORBA/IIOP component but you can easily integrate that using
camel-bean --> http://camel.apache.org/bean.html
