How to periodically process some input using Apache Camel

Question

I wonder if there is a way to make Camel do what I need which is as follows:

"Periodically read data from some source (let's say a file), do some processing on it and write it to some other place"

I figured out how to do all that minus the "periodically" part. I know how to trigger a route using Quartz or Timer. But when I use those the part is already taken so I can't change the body anymore.

Any advice?

You can use scheduled route policy as well http://camel.apache.org/scheduledroutepolicy.html
