Description

A few components hosts a service exclusive in Camel such as HTTP/TCP based

from cxf
from platform-http
from servlet
from netty (not in client mode)
from mina
from mllp
from jetty

There may be a few others.

Its not the same as

from file
from jms
from kafka

As these are camel consumer that reacts on events from another "service", eg JMS broker or Kafka broker.

If we have an API/SPI to mark a consumer as being a HostedConsumer (or come up with a better name). Then we can collect service information, such as

• name
• protocol
• ur to call the service
• additional metadata
• api schema (optional)

Then we can make camel-core able to detect all its consumers that are hosted, and be able to expose this so its easier for tooling etc to gather a list of services.

There is something related to this in RestRegistry in camel-core but that was for RESTful hosted service only.
