Kamelet Catalog as Maven dependency

[assimbly]

Topic: Kamelet Catalog

Functionality: As developer I would like to access the Kamelet Catalog programmaticly

Background:

Currently, the Camel catalog is already available as Maven dependency (jar file):

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.camel/camel-catalog

Most information in the Camel catalog (https://camel.apache.org/manual/latest/camel-catalog.html) is available through a JSON Schema. Similar layout/schemas would be preferable for the Kamelet catalog as this is corresponds to the way Camel developers are used to. Somethings however maybe better in a format like YAML. The Camel catalog makes it possible to get information about for example a component from within a program.

I would like the same for the Kamelet Catalog (https://camel.apache.org/camel-kamelets/latest/). In this way developers can access a list of available Kamelets and for a specific Kamelet get information about the version/documentation/configuration(yaml)/dependencies and so on.

Ideally the Kamelet Catalog can also be used to load a Kamelet within a Camel runtime. (This would be a use case for Asismbly or other low-code platforms like Syndesis).

I'm starting working on this.

This is implemented now. Let's open other issues for improvements and more.
