First, what is Apache Camel K? According to its Github Readme, “Apache Camel K is a lightweight integration platform, born on Kubernetes, with serverless superpowers.” Essentially Camel K enables developers to run integrations on Kubernetes or OpenShift clusters which enables them to get Camel-based integration solutions up and running very quickly!
Our goal for the Tooling for Apache Camel K extension for Microsoft Visual Studio Code is to make that process even more seamless.
For more information about Camel K, be sure to check out its documentation and github pages.
### Features
- Start/Stop an Apache Camel K Integration
- Create a new Camel K Integration task configuration with multiple parameters
- Publish new Kubernetes ConfigMaps or Secrets
- View the status of published integrations
- View the log for an Apache Camel K Operator
- View the running log for a published Apache Camel K Integration
- Java Language Support
- Customize Apache Camel K Extension Settings
- Change the Namespace
### Requirements
- An **instance of Apache Camel K** running on a Kubernetes or an OpenShift cluster
- **Minikube** or the **Kubernetes CLI** installed. (more details at [Apache Camel K Installation](https://camel.apache.org/camel-k/latest/installation/installation.html) page)
- For some features, [JBang](https://www.jbang.dev/documentation/guide/latest/index.html) must be available on the system command-line.
- VS Code up to 1.85 is recommended. One test related to completion on Java standalone files with 1.86.x is failing but we have not found steps to reproduce manually, neither how to fix it so far.
