[Feature] VelocityTemplateMediator
Hi Devs,
I've been using Synapse to develop an API Platform for a company. Message
transformation was a key part of it. We were mainly using Payload Factory .
It is ideal for 1:1 message transformation. But for arrays and conditional
transformation we had to develop a DSL.
I know XSLT mediator was an option, but we were not allowed to use xslt for
development. Now don't ask me why :).
I developed a mediator using Velocity Template Engine. It addresses all the
limitations in payload factory. Very detailed document with examples can be
found at
https://github.com/asanka88/apache-synapse/blob/master/README.md
I ported it to latest synapse version and source can be found
https://github.com/asanka88/apache-synapse
Please have look , would love to contribute this to synapse if you guys
think this is good.
Thanks,
Asanka

Pretty good work Indeed. I agree that this will help to overcome the
limitation of payload mediator and any other transformation mediators.
I would suggest as dushan to do a comprehensive performance comparation
that allows on going users to convince the adoption of this new feature :)
However, we should not wait until that but to adopt this sooner and do the
extensive testing.
Synapse still following the old school model with JIRA and svn, Hence
please create JIRA and attached the patch.(I see you have forked and
implemented in GitHub)

Hi Asanka,
It looks to be nice work. Do you have any performance numbers with the
current feature?
Cheers,
Dushan
