quarkus-patterns	Quarkus 3.x LTS architecture patterns with Camel for messaging, RESTful API design, CDI services, data access with Panache, and async processing. Use for Java Quarkus backend work with event-driven architectures.	ECC

Quarkus Development Patterns

Quarkus 3.x architecture and API patterns for cloud-native, event-driven services with Apache Camel.

When to Activate

• Building REST APIs with JAX-RS or RESTEasy Reactive
• Structuring resource → service → repository layers
• Implementing event-driven patterns with Apache Camel and RabbitMQ
• Configuring Hibernate Panache, caching, or reactive streams
• Adding validation, exception mapping, or pagination
• Setting up profiles for dev/staging/production environments (YAML config)
• Custom logging with LogContext and Logback/Logstash encoder
• Working with CompletableFuture for async operations
• Implementing conditional flow processing
• Working with GraalVM native compilation

Service Layer with Multiple Dependencies (Lombok)

Key Patterns:

• @RequiredArgsConstructor for constructor injection via Lombok
• @Slf4j for Logback logging
• Scoped LogContext with try-with-resources
• Conditional flow logic based on runtime parameters
• CompletableFuture with .join() for async operations
• Event tracking for success/error scenarios
• Async Camel message publishing

Custom Logging Context Pattern (Logback)

@ApplicationScoped
public class ProcessingService {
    
    public void processDocument(Document doc) {
        LogContext logContext = CustomLog.getCurrentContext();
        try (SafeAutoCloseable ignored = CustomLog.startScope(logContext)) {
            // Add context to all log statements
            logContext.put("documentId", doc.getId().toString());
            logContext.put("documentType", doc.getType());
            logContext.put("userId", SecurityContext.getUserId());
            
            log.info("Starting document processing");
            
            // All logs within this scope inherit the context
            processInternal(doc);
            
            log.info("Document processing completed");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            log.error("Document processing failed", e);
            throw e;
        }
    }
}

Logback Configuration (logback.xml):

<configuration>
    <appender name="CONSOLE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
        <encoder class="net.logstash.logback.encoder.LogstashEncoder">
            <includeContext>true</includeContext>
            <includeMdc>true</includeMdc>
        </encoder>
    </appender>
    
    <logger name="com.example" level="INFO"/>
    <root level="WARN">
        <appender-ref ref="CONSOLE"/>
    </root>
</configuration>

Event Service Pattern

@ApplicationScoped
@RequiredArgsConstructor
public class EventService {
    private final EventRepository eventRepository;
    private final ObjectMapper objectMapper;
    
    public void createSuccessEvent(Object payload, String eventType) {
        Objects.requireNonNull(payload, "Payload cannot be null");
        Event event = new Event();
        event.setType(eventType);
        event.setStatus(EventStatus.SUCCESS);
        event.setPayload(serializePayload(payload));
        event.setTimestamp(Instant.now());
        
        eventRepository.persist(event);
        log.info("Success event created: {}", eventType);
    }
    
    public void createErrorEvent(Object payload, String eventType, String errorMessage) {
        Objects.requireNonNull(payload, "Payload cannot be null");
        if (errorMessage == null || errorMessage.isBlank()) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Error message cannot be blank");
        }
        Event event = new Event();
        event.setType(eventType);
        event.setStatus(EventStatus.ERROR);
        event.setErrorMessage(errorMessage);
        event.setPayload(serializePayload(payload));
        event.setTimestamp(Instant.now());
        
        eventRepository.persist(event);
        log.error("Error event created: {} - {}", eventType, errorMessage);
    }
    
    private String serializePayload(Object payload) {
        // JSON serialization
        return objectMapper.writeValueAsString(payload);
    }
}

    public void publishAsync(BusinessRulesPayload payload) {
        producerTemplate.asyncSendBody(
            "direct:business-rules-publisher", 
            payload
        );
        log.info("Message published to business rules queue: {}", payload.getDocumentId());
    }
    
    public void publishSync(BusinessRulesPayload payload) {
        producerTemplate.sendBody(
            "direct:business-rules-publisher", 
            payload
        );
    }

            .handled(true)
            .to("direct:validation-error-handler")
            .log("Validation error: ${exception.message}");
        
        // Main processing route
        from("direct:process-document")
            .routeId("document-processing")
            .log("Processing document: ${header.documentId}")
            .bean(DocumentValidator.class, "validate")
            .bean(DocumentTransformer.class, "transform")
            .choice()
                .when(header("documentType").isEqualTo("INVOICE"))
                    .to("direct:process-invoice")
                .when(header("documentType").isEqualTo("CREDIT_NOTE"))
                    .to("direct:process-credit-note")
                .otherwise()
                    .to("direct:process-generic")
            .end();
        
        from("direct:validation-error-handler")
            .bean(EventService.class, "createErrorEvent")
            .log("Validation error handled");
    }
}

        from("file:" + inputDirectory + "?move=" + processedDirectory + 
             "&moveFailed=" + errorDirectory + "&delay=5000")
            .routeId("file-monitor")
            .log("Processing file: ${header.CamelFileName}")
            .to("direct:process-file");
        
        from("direct:process-file")
            .bean(As2ProcessingService.class, "processFile")
            .log("File processing completed");
    }
}

            .bean(EventService.class, "createSuccessEvent(${body}, 'PUBLISHED')");
    }
}

@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@RequiredArgsConstructor
public class DocumentResource {
  private final DocumentService documentService;

  @GET
  public Response list(
      @QueryParam("page") @DefaultValue("0") int page,
      @QueryParam("size") @DefaultValue("20") int size) {

Best Practices

Architecture

• Use @RequiredArgsConstructor with Lombok for constructor injection
• Keep service layer thin; delegate complex logic to specialized classes
• Use Camel routes for message routing and integration patterns
• Prefer Panache Repository pattern for data access

Event-Driven

• Always track operations with EventService (success/error events)
• Use Camel direct: endpoints for in-memory routing
• Use spring-rabbitmq component for RabbitMQ integration
• Implement async publishing with ProducerTemplate.asyncSendBody()

Logging

• Use Logback with Logstash encoder for structured logging
• Propagate LogContext through service calls with SafeAutoCloseable
• Add contextual information to LogContext for request tracing
• Use @Slf4j instead of manual logger instantiation

Async Operations

• Use CompletableFuture for non-blocking I/O operations
• Call .join() when you need to wait for completion
• Handle exceptions from CompletableFuture properly
• Pass LogContext to async operations for tracing

Configuration

• Use YAML configuration (quarkus-config-yaml)
• Profile-aware configuration for dev/test/prod environments
• Externalize sensitive configuration to environment variables
• Use @ConfigProperty for type-safe config injection

Validation

• Validate at resource layer with @Valid
• Use Bean Validation annotations on DTOs
• Map exceptions to proper HTTP responses with @Provider

Transactions

• Use @Transactional on service methods that modify data
• Keep transactions short and focused
• Avoid calling async operations within transactions

Testing

• Use camel-quarkus-junit5 for route testing
• Use AssertJ for assertions
• Mock all external dependencies
• Test conditional flow logic thoroughly

Quarkus-Specific

• Stay on latest LTS version (3.x)
• Use Quarkus dev mode for hot reload
• Add health checks for production readiness
• Test native compilation compatibility periodically
