using Path Variables in Apache Camel Rest

Question

How can i access PathVariables in the Apache Camel Rest module?

I defined a route like this (following "using base path" from the documentation):

rest("/customers/")
.get("/{id}").to("direct:customerDetail")

How can i get a hold on the {id}-Parameter in the following route?

Basically i would like to know what camel offers instead of @PathVariable (see following example)

@RequestMapping(value="/customers/{id}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public Customer customerDetail(@PathVariable String cId) {
    return getCustomer(cId);
}

Answer 1

Turns out that this is really easy:

public Customer customerDetail(Exchange exchange){
    String id = exchange.getIn().getHeader("id").toString();
    return getCustomer(id);
}
