Mule HTTP endpoint with parameters

Question

I'm trying to write a Mule flow to poll a CRUD-web service. I've managed to do kind of what I'd like to do with a small JAVA-application but I'd like to use a HTTP-endpoint in a mule flow instead if its possible.

I'd like to do a HTTP-GET-request with Database ID in the HTTP-HEADER. Is this possible with a MULE-inbound-endpoint?

    // HTTP GET request
private void sendGet() throws Exception {


    String url = "https://XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";

    URL obj = new URL(url);
    HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) obj.openConnection();

    // optional default is GET
    con.setRequestMethod("GET");
    con.setRequestProperty("X-Appery-Database-Id", "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX");

    //add request header
    con.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", USER_AGENT);

    int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
    System.out.println("\nSending 'GET' request to URL : " + url);
    System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode);

    BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
            new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()));
    String inputLine;
    StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();

    while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
        response.append(inputLine);
    }
    in.close();

    //print result
    System.out.println(response.toString());

You can use MuleClient to execute a set of tests (CRUD operations), for example:

MuleClient client = muleContext.getClient();
Map parameters = new HashMap();
parameters.put("Content-Type", "application/json");
parameters.put("http.method", "GET");     // or POST, DELETE, PUT
parameters.put("DatabaseID", "ID");

then send to http-inbound-endpoint

MuleMessage response = client.send("http://localhost:8091/rest/domain", PAYLOAD, parameters);
assertNotNull(response);
assertThat(Integer.valueOf(response.getInboundProperty(HTTP_STATUS).toString()), is(200));

Victor shows you how to do it from a flow. I hope to help.
