How to download a file from esb service ?

[dulee]

Hi All,

I have a service to export data to csv/ excel file. I want when invoke this service browser will automatic download this file.

It looks simple with HttpServletResponse at here http://www.mkyong.com/java/how-to-download-file-from-website-java-jsp/

But it too difficult with JBOSS ESB. Someone know this please help me.

Thanks,

Are you looking to create an output file from a message? There is a quickstart example that shows this:

No no. I'm looking the way to return the file output to the client side.

With your quickstart, the output fs will located at server side not client side as expected.

Ju,

There's a number of ways to do this, depending on whether you need a synchronous response or not.       Take a look at the HttpGateway (https://community.jboss.org/wiki/HTTPGateway#Synchronous_Responses).

What's the use case here?    Is the user invoking something through http, which enters the bus, and then you want the response as a downloadable file?
