I have a java application that is consuming from one JMS queue, doing some processing, and then sending to an output queue.
While I’m testing, it’d be very handy to have a filesystem based JMS implementation for the output queue; such that any messages sent to it would just be written to a directory on disk.
Does anyone know if this exists? I’ve considered switching to an integration framework like apache-camel which has file based endpoints, but seems overkill for what I need right now. I’m using activemq, is it possible to configure an embedded broker to do this?
I would go for apache camel anyhow. It also saves you quite some boilerplate code to connect to activemq. If you are also using spring already its just a matter of adding a simple routebuilder and some xml configuration. The jars themselves are rather small so its a rather small bit of overhead to pay in return of a big amount of flexibility.
