[SOLVED] Apache camel file component to periodically read files without deleting or moving files and without idempotency

Apache camel file component to periodically read files without deleting or moving files and without idempotency

file:/../..?noop=true&scheduler=quartz2&scheduler.cron=0+0/10+*+*+*+?

Using noop=true allows me to have the files at same place after the route consumes the files but it also enables idempotent which I don't want. (There is second route which will do deletion based on some other logic so the first route shouldn't lead to infinite loop by consuming non-idempotently I believe)

I think I can overwrite the file and use idempotentKey as ${file:name}-${file:modified} so that the file will be picked up on next polling but that still means extra write. Or just deleting and creating the same file also should work but again not a clean approach.

Is there a better way to accomplish this? I could not find it in Camel documentation.

Edit: To summarize I want to read the same files over and over in a scheduled manner (say every 10 mins) from the same repo. SOLVED! - Answer below.
