Dhiraj Bokde commented on CAMEL-7553:
-------------------------------------

An initial version of the Box.com component has been submitted. 

This component supports 79 different endpoints for interacting with Box.com and exposes every single feature in the SDK in the initial version. It only contains 13 classes in src/main, 20 API modeling classes are generated in target/generated-sources. Out of the 781 lines of code in the initial version, 421 lines are from generated-sources directory. Of the 360 lines under src/main/java, 194 lines are just for creating and managing Box.com connections, and 46 lines are just in BoxConfiguration.java. All this just leaves 120 lines of code for the rest of the component. 

This lean implementation is a clear demonstration of the tremendous power and flexibility of the API Component framework. The camel-api-component-archetype and the camel-api-component-maven-plugin together reduced the development work by several magnitudes. Development effort was focused solely on SDK connection lifecycle management, instead of the usual URI parameter mapping, and API invocation code common in Camel components. 

In addition to that, all the Integration test code was also generated as skeleton code, which was easily moved to src/test/java and modified to add test values and re-factored into integration flows to exercise every single API in the Box.com SDK. 

The camel-api-component-maven-plugin also generates a skeleton HTML file using the 'document' goal which turns documenting the component's large number of endpoints and configuration options into a much simpler exercise.

> Add support for Box.com REST API. Box.com is a free cloud storage, secure content and online file sharing service. Box.com provides an ASLv2 licensed SDK at https://github.com/box/box-java-sdk-v2/blob/master/LICENSE. 
> This SDK can be easily leveraged by the Camel API component framework to create a fully functional Camel Component for Box.com.
