Paul Piper commented on OFBIZ-3877:
-----------------------------------
I am also no sure where the hostility is coming from. It seems that this is an
interesting feature, but obviously one with a greater impact so it would
require some indepth analysis?! Am I missing something?
> New Web Service Style
> ---------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-3877
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3877
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: framework
> Environment: Windows, Ubuntu Linux
> Reporter: Chatree Srichart
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: ASF.LICENSE.NOT.GRANTED--webui empty UI.jpg,
> webservice.tar.bz2, webui.png, webui.tar.bz2
>
>
> This is a new stub for new web service style that use a normal style (not
> hash map [key/value]).
> [[ Installation ]]
> - Extract webservice.zip file (attached file) to hot-deploy directory of
> OFBiz framework
> - run ant task for apply patch in webservice directory with:
> ant reapply-ofbiz-patches
> [[ Features ]]
> 1.) New classes
> There is new important class
> org.ofbiz.webapp.webservice.event.WebServiceEventHandler
> which corresponds to earlier
> org.ofbiz.webapp.event.SOAPEventHandler
> but tries to support document style web services using
> SOAP with XML-format, or REST with XML and JSON-formats.
> This handler class uses other class:
> org.ofbiz.service.webservice.WebServiceModel
> which wraps inside class
> org.ofbiz.service.ModelService
> and contains support for WSDL-generation, WADL-generation
> and conversion between Java Maps and XML-object models.
> WSDL=Web Service Definition Language for SOAP-interface
> http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl
> WADL=Web Application Description Language for REST-interface
> http://www.w3.org/Submission/wadl/
> There is another new important class
> org.ofbiz.service.webservice.engine.WebServiceClientEngine
> which corresponds to earlier
> org.ofbiz.service.engine.SOAPClientEngine
> but tries to support document style web services using
> SOAP with XML-format. Web services can be called using
> their WSDL-document or messages can be specified in
> services.xml without using WSDL-document. engine-attribute
> in services description is set to "webservice". Location
> of WSDL-document is given in attribute wsdlLocation or
> it can be left out if messages are described with attribute-
> definitions. Name of service in WSDL is given in
> attribute webServiceName and name of operation to be
> invoked in attribute invoke. One service-definition is
> needed for one web service-operation pair.
> Example of web service definitions are in file:
> framework/common/servicedef/services_test.xml
> This engine class uses other class:
> org.ofbiz.service.webservice.WebServiceClientModel
> which extends org.ofbiz.service.webservice.WebServiceModel
> and contains support for filling attribute definitions
> in org.ofbiz.service.ModelService from WSDL-document.
> 2.) Service definitions
> Web service interface can be used only if service definition
> file services.xml is completed with additional definitions.
> Schema of this file is extended.
> attribute-elements can have nested attribute elements
> which describe structure of Java maps and lists.
> If attribute has type Map, it should have nested attributes
> which describe contents of this map.
> If attribute has type List, it should have nested attributes
> which describe element contents of this list.
> If List has simple elements, there must be only one
> nested attribute, which describes element.
> If List has element which is map or other list, there
> must be one nested attribute stating that the element
> is Map or List, and then this attribute should have
> nested attributes describing structure of Map or
> structure of list element.
> There are also two new modes for attributes
> ERROR which means that attribute is responded as error message
> OUTERROR which means that attribute is responded as error
> or as success message
> These modes are needed for web services to describe
> which parameters will go to detail-elements of SOAP Fault response
> or REST error messages. Also in WSDL- and WADL-files will be
> generated XML-schema for general response messages.
> File framework\webapp\servicedef\services_test.xml
> can be used as example of attribute definitions.
> This file is used in unit tests of web service interface.
> 3.) Web service requests
> In REST-services HTTP GET-method is used in services whose
> name start with words "find" or "get". These services should
> have input parameters in one level, so that they can be
> given as query parameters in URL. HTTP DELETE-method is used
> with services whose name start with word "remove". Other services
> are used with HTTP POST-method and PUT-method. Service must
> look itself for method name POST or PUT, if it is required
> to operate differently in insert or update cases.
> List of links to all WSDL-documents can be requested with URL:
> /webtools/control/WebService?wsdl
> Specific WSDL-document is requested with URL:
> /webtools/control/WebService/<service name here>?wsdl
> SOAP web service is called with URL:
> /webtools/control/WebService
> Notice that no service name is added to URL. Operation
> name in request message specifies the service name.
> List of links to all WADL-documents can be requested with URL:
> /webtools/control/WebService?wadl
> Specific WADL-document is requested with URL:
> /webtools/control/WebService/<service name here>?wadl
> REST web service is called with URL:
> /webtools/control/WebService/<service name here>[?parameter=value...]
> REST web service with JSON-format is called with URL:
> /webtools/control/WebService/<service name
> here>?format=json[¶meter=value...]
> SOAP and REST web service requests are selected by
> request URL, where REST web service has appended
> service name in URL.
> 4.) Unit tests
> Tests for web services
> org.ofbiz.webapp.webservice.test.WebServiceTests
> This has 14 different tests which are:
> 1. Conversion of XML-object model to Map
> 2. Conversion of Map to XML-object model
> 3. Call SOAP-web service
> 4. Call SOAP-web service which needs authorization
> 5. Call SOAP-web service with wrong credentials
> 6. Call SOAP-web service with wrong service name
> 7. Call REST-web service
> 8. Call REST-web service which needs authorization
> 9. Call REST-web service with wrong credentials
> 10. Call REST-web service with wrong service name
> 11. Call REST-web service using JSON-format
> 12. Call REST-web service which needs authorization using JSON-format
> 13. Call REST-web service with wrong credentials using JSON-format
> 14. Call REST-web service with wrong service name using JSON-format
> Junit test suite definitions are in file
> framework/webapp/testdef/webservicetests.xml
> These unit tests use test service in class
> org.ofbiz.webapp.webservice.test.WebServiceTestServices
> Service definitions are in file
> framework\webapp\servicedef\services_test.xml
> Unit tests for web service interface can be run with command:
> ant run-single-test-suite -Dtest.component=webapp
> -Dtest.suiteName=webservicetests
> Tests for web service client
> org.ofbiz.service.webservice.test.WebServiceClientTests
> This has 4 different tests which are:
> 1. Call SOAP-web service
> 2. Call SOAP-web service which needs authorization
> 3. Call SOAP-web service with wrong credentials
> 4. Call SOAP-web service without WSDL-document using service definitions
> Junit test suite definitions are in file
> framework/service/testdef/webserviceclienttests.xml
> These tests use same test services as tests for web services.
> Unit tests for web service client can be run with command:
> ant run-single-test-suite -Dtest.component=service
> -Dtest.suiteName=webserviceclienttests
