Hi Sergey,Should we add a link to the docs to make people aware what they can do with the Swagger contract/SwaggerFeature at the client side?
If you like, I can also start editing the Wiki (but I haven't heard anything about my write access there and don't know how to edit it, pls let me know how I can contribut there) or provide you with a draft.

Hi Philippe,p.s. if you want to see this all in action you can also come to ApacheCon Seville in two weeks and see my talk there (http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apachecon-europe/program/schedule).Best regards, Johannes Am 06.11.2016 um 22:44 schrieb J. Fiala:Hi Philippe,CXF REST services actually support clients of any programming language capable of doing REST API calls.If you want to generate client code, pls check out Swagger-Codegen (http://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen), it currently supports around 40 programming languages (client/server stubs), all the languages you listed are already there (JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Perl).It allows you to actually generate the client code in any language provided by Swagger contract. You can create the Swagger contract yourself or generate the contract dynamically using CXF SwaggerFeature (http://cxf.apache.org/docs/swagger2feature.html). If you want to generate the CXF application itself from an existing Swagger contract, you can take a look at a talk I did yesterday at DevFest Vienna (http://www.slideshare.net/johannes_fiala/how-to-generate-a-rest-application).Pls also try the Javascript generator there (Disclaimer: I added the basic generator for Javascript last year) and give feedback there. The Javascript calls are per se asynchronous & it supports AMD like RequireJs.If you want an overview of the Javascript features, you can watch a short talk I did at dotjs last year after creating the Javascript language generator: http://www.slideshare.net/johannes_fiala/rest-api-code-completion-for-javascript.Best regards, Johannes Am 06.11.2016 um 04:23 schrieb cp10000:One of the fundamental characteristics and advantages of web-services is thatit allows different environments, different operating system, different programming languages to interact.Does Apache CXF support clients in other other languages (especially dynamiclanguages like JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Perl,...)? The answer to that question is not clearly stated anywhere in CXFdocumentation. If CXF supports clients in other languages, then SAMPLESOURCE CODES SHOULD BE PROVIDED! It's not enough to say yes.We must separate the two cases of synchronous functions and asynchronous functions. I would like to see sample code in JavaScript and Python for call to synchronous web-service in CXF. This might be possible, but somesample code would be helpful. I am particularly interested in seeing how a client in another computer language than Java like JavaScript or Python can call an asynchronousweb-service in Apache CXF. Asynchronous web-service in CXF uses classeslike Future<?>, AsyncHandler<?>. These classes don't map directly to classes in JavaScript and other languages. I am not aware of any correspondence across computer languages.I have a strong feeling that a different language like JavaScript requires asoftware framework in order to write a client that can call Apache CXFweb-services. Does such framework exist? If yes, it should be mentioned in the documentation. If such framework does not exist, then Apache CXFshould write one for the major other programming languages (JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Perl, ....etc) --View this message in context: http://cxf.547215.n5.nabble.com/CXF-supports-clients-in-other-languages-Then-provide-samples-tp5774606.htmlSent from the cxf-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
