Foreword

Although Web Services an increasingly gr?oere spread reasons, the production from clients and servers are nowhere as simple as at many places promised. This is probably not least because little easy on the theme Einf?uhrungen exist. Just englischsprachige ?auerst instructions are rare. This is the Step Tutorial four step entry into the subject of Web Services f?ur Anf?anger (like me) easier. The Python Implementation is being used.

The Python ZSI Server for the MatheService

The ZSI Web service package is a tool for top-down development of Web-Services. This means that an existing WSDL used to client and server applications. In the context this document describes a Webservice a WSDL file that describes the Service Interface.

Method Stubs Generated from the WSDL

ZSI provides two Python scripts for Verf?ugung which Quellcodeger?uste four Server and Client from the WSDL generated code:

wsdl2py will be used to the Python Bindings four Service can evolve.
Wsdl2dispatch creates a Serverger?ust, at the service auszuf?uhren. The processing, with us, so SquareService tabled here.

If ZSI installed, ?o net now top the console and changes in the provided, in which our MatheService.wsdl. Now the two scripts ausgef?uhrt:

wsdl2py -f MatheService.wsdl
wsdl2dispatch -f MatheService.wsdl

The option -f speziXis styled the input, so our WSDL file. If a WSDL from the network will be used, for example of http://www.xmethods.com, can here by -u instead of -f the URL. It should not be in the directory three new files be reasons:

MatheService services.py - Die durch wsdl2py generierten Bindings,
MatheService services types.py - Durch wsdl2py generierten TypdeXnitionen,
MatheService services server.py - Das durch wsdl2dispatch generiertes Server Ger?ust.

What to do now? We have the Server skeleton and the Python bindings to use the Service to communicate. What we need now is:

The main program, the (HTTP-) Server and the Request Handler and
the Methods, the practices questions.

ZSI includes the module ZSI.ServiceContainer, which the server for us implemented.

Implementation of the MatheService Web-Servers

We create a Python file called MyMatheService.py. I use the Python programming Eclipse with PyDev Plugin, however, there is any free dasWerkzeug seinerWahl. MyMatheService.py is the main program. It is a request Handler, combines the Verf?ugung our Service with the ServiceContainer and starts the HTTP Server.

MyMatheService.py

from ZSI.ServiceContainer import ServiceContainer, SOAPRequestHandler
from MatheService_services_server import MatheService

import os

class MySOAPRequestHandler(SOAPRequestHandler):

    def do_GET(self):
    #Return the WSDL file. We expect to get the location from the
    #invocation URL ("path").
        wsdlfile = os.path.join('.', self.path.replace('/', "", 1) + ".wsdl")
        print ">>>>> using wsdl file", wsdlfile
        wsdl = open(wsdlfile).read()
        self.send_xml(wsdl)
        
# Copied from ZSI.ServiceContainer, extended to instantiate with a custom
# request handler

def AsServer(port=80, services=(), RequestHandlerClass=SOAPRequestHandler):
    address = ('127.0.0.1', port)
    sc = ServiceContainer(address, RequestHandlerClass=RequestHandlerClass)
    for service in services:
        path = service.getPost()
        sc.setNode(service, path)
    sc.serve_forever()
    
AsServer(port=8080, services=[MatheService()], RequestHandlerClass=MySOAPRequestHandler)

W?are n?otig it not been his own Request Handler to implement MySOAPRequestHandler, both Python ZSI Clients, which the ServiceProxy class and MS Visual Basic SOAP Clients, expect a HTTP GET, the WSDL file ?ubermittelt. This is now a widespread behavior. This was the AsServer(..) function will be extended to his own Request handler. We k?onnen Service now test. To test Web Services do I use the Tool SOAPUI. SOAPUI generiert SOAP messages from a WSDL and sends it to the WSDL specified Server.

SOAPUI Request

  <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
    xmlns:mat="http://MyNS:8080/MatheService">
    <soapenv:Body>
      <mat :getSquare>
        <x>6</x>
      </mat :getSquare>
    </soapenv:Body>
  </soapenv:Envelope>

SOAPUI Response

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
   xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:ZSI="http://www.zolera.com/schemas/ZSI/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns: xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchemainstance">
  <SOAP-ENV:Header/>
  <SOAP-ENV:Body xmlns:ns1="http://MyNS:8080/MatheService">
    <ns1:getSquareResponse>
      <return xsi:nil="1"/>
    </ns1:getSquareResponse>
  </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

The server because we have no function yet wrote that request, we as a result : return xsi:nil=1. That was so far is also expected. We see in particular, however, that the server l?auft and our request receives. To get meaningful results we must implement the getSquare function.

The Service Implementation Einflugen

The only thing we do now m?ussen, is the implementation of the services in the by wsdl2dispatch produced Serverger?ust einzuf?ugen. The following steps are necessary:

Forwarding the request of the correct method,
the method the parameters of the SOAP- request ?ubergeben,
the result of the method in the SOAP- response letter.

We first ?o nen MatheService_services_server.py file:

##################################################
# MatheService_services_server.py
#      Generated by ZSI.generate.wsdl2dispatch.DelAuthServiceModuleWriter
#
##################################################

from MatheService_services import *
from ZSI.ServiceContainer import ServiceSOAPBinding

class MatheService(ServiceSOAPBinding):
    soapAction = {}
    root       = {}
    _wsdl      = """..."""

    def __init__(self, post='/MatheService', **kw):
        ServiceSOAPBinding.__init__(self, post)

    def soap_getSquare(self, ps):
        self.request     = ps.Parse(getSquareRequest.typecode)
        x                = self.request._x   
        Response         = getSquareResponse()
        Response._result = self.getSquare(x)
        return Response
    
    soapAction['http://MyNs:8080/MatheService/getSquare'] = 'soap_getSquare'
    root[(getSquareRequest.typecode.nspname,getSquareRequest.typecode.pname)] = 'soap_getSquare'

We add the function getSquare, which calculates and returns the square a number passed to it as an argument:

    def getSquare(self, x):
        return x**2

Now we add the function soap_setSquare(self, ps):

    def soap_getSquare(self, ps):
        self.request     = ps.Parse(getSquareRequest.typecode)
        x                = self.request._x   
        Response         = getSquareResponse()
        Response._result = self.getSquare(x)
        return Response

In line 2 args = ps.Parse(getSquareRequest) ways of the variable we args an array of the request. The class getSquareRequest is in the file MatheService_services.py below:

.
.
.
class getSquareRequest:
   def __init__(self):
      self._x = None
      return
.
.
.
class getSquareResponse:
   def __init__(self):
      self._return = None
      return
.
.
.

In line 3 response=getSquareResponse(), we reject the Variable Response the type getSquareResponse().

In line 4 is now our getSquare method is called. The parameter is the x value of the inquiry (the '_' is important!!!) method. The result, we then the Variable return our response variable.

At the end we give the with a value gef?ullte Response Variable zur?uck. We are testing our server now come back with SOAPUI:

SOAPUI Request

  <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
    xmlns:mat="http://MyNS:8080/MatheService">
    <soapenv:Body>
      <mat :getSquare>
        <x>6</x>
      </mat :getSquare>
    </soapenv:Body>
  </soapenv:Envelope>

SOAPUI Response

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
   xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:ZSI="http://www.zolera.com/schemas/ZSI/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"

  <SOAP-ENV:Body xmlns:ns1="http://MyNS:8080/MatheService">

      <return>36.000000</return>
    </ns1:getSquareResponse>
  </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Congratulations, our Server works!

The Python ZSI Client for MatheService

At the Client to implement, we create a new Python file, in this example MyMathServiceClient.py:

MyMatheServiceClient.py

from MatheService_services import *
from MatheService_services_types import *
import sys
from optparse import OptionParser

parser= OptionParser()

parser.add_option("-s", "--square", dest="square", type="string", help="A number calculate Square ")
parser.add_option("-a", "--arg1", dest="arg1", type="string", help="The first Modulodivision parameter ")
parser.add_option("-b", "--arg2", dest="arg2", type="string", help="The second Modulodivision parameter")

(options, args)=parser.parse_args()

loc = MatheServiceLocator()

proxy = loc.getMathePortType(tracefile = sys.stdout)

if options.square:
    response= proxy.getSquare((float)(options.square))
    print "The square of ", options.square, "is: ", response
    
elif options.arg1 and options.arg2:
    response = proxy.getModulo((int)(options.arg1),(int)(options.srg2))
    print "The result of the modulodivision of ", options.arg1, "and", options.arg2, "is", response

We recognize quickly that the client pretty simple. The relevant lines of code will now be explained :

Line 1: The wsdl2py created bindings are imported.
Line 14: an instance of Locator class is created. The Locator MatheService_services.py class is defined. Of the locate represents the Bindings at the given Web Service and the Port class, which is used to the Remote operations involve Web Services. In addition, several classes defined message to the SOAP, XML Schema datatypes locations. The name of this class depending, of course the name of the WSDL defined Services. This means that if any other WSDL used the name changes also. You will find the class of wsdl2py generated _services.py file is quite simple (it is the first class, who in the file is always on and ends ServiceLocator).
Line 15: the variables proxy, the port of Locator- class assigned. Through this port will be the operations of the Web Services. The specified parameters tracefile = sys.stdout there for debugging the SOAP messages on the standard output.
Line 22: as well as the Server we need the instance of class, the type of data from the SOAP message represents.
Line 23: similar to the server we fill our request with a value. Note: In Eclipse, the possible variables that are in the request can be set by the code (Strg Space) displayed.
Line 24: here is now the Operation getSquare called and the result of the Variable response.

The following Listing shows the console output from running our Client:

4 Complex Data Types

In the first part of this manual, we have a Service with simple datatypes created. This example is a complex operation datatypes expanded. This we implement an operation which a Modulodivision makes two numbers. As a Parameter ?ubergeben we the Operation two numbers of type integer. Several values in a request to ?ubergeben k?onnen ben?otigen, a type of data folgendermaen looks like:

Complex datatype for the Modulerequest

In the first part of this tutorial, we implemented a Service with simple datatypes. This example demonstrates how a complex operation datatypes is handled. Toa achieve this we implement an operation where the Modulodivision generates two numbers. As a Parameter ?ubergeben we the Operation two numbers of type integer. Several values in a request to ?ubergeben k?onnen ben?otigen, a type of data folgendermaen looks like:

Complex Datatype for ModuleRequest

<xsd:complexType name="ModuloRequest">

<xsd:element name="Zahl1" type="xsd:int"></xsd:element>
<xsd:element name="Zahl2" type=" xsd:int"></xsd:element>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>

4.1 How to Expand the WSDL with Eclipse

First, in Eclipse a new folder in the project created and the original WSDL imported. In the first part of this manual, we have a rpc/literal encoded WSDL. We are now document/literal encoding.

5 Summary of the ZSI user manual

The following section is NOT the vollst?andige ?Ubersetzung of ZSI user guide, it only parts that I have essential f?ur again. I ?ubernehme ausdr?ucklich no Gew?ahr f?ur the correctness of the ?Ubersetzung. In doubt, contact always read! Your �unfounded : http://pywebsvcs.sourceforge.net/guide.html ZSI, zolera SOAP Infrastructuree, is a Python package, which is a Implementation of SOAP gem?a SOAP 1.1 Spezi�cation funding.

5.1 Summary

The ZSI Web service package is a tool for top-down development of Web-Services. This means that an existing WSDL used to client and server applications. In the context this document is a Web Service a WSDL file that describes the Service Interface. Such documents are usually published under a URL. The WSDL file defines the SOAP bindings to communicate with the Service. These bindings are used to exchange messages the SOAP. The content of the messages must be the structure of the schedule to be inserted This plan will be in either the WSDL file, they included or there will be available types (such as xsd:int, xsd:string, etc) represents.

5.1.1 SOAP Bindings

There are two kinds of SOAP Bindings, rpc and document. The use of the literal (literal) encoding is the recommended route new Web Service applications to develop. The support of the rpc/enc SOAP encoding is for use with older applications and other SOAP toolkit to rpc/enc limited, maintained. By a doc/literal Service is usually the exchange of documents, while a rpc/enc or rpc/literal Service for Remoteaufrufe intended. Whether this distinction of purpose is either meaningful or useful is a point of contention. ZSI supports all three types, but rpc/literal and doc/literal are the focus of the ongoing development.

5.1.2 Python (tool, instrument, device, equipment, apparatus)

wsdl2py

The wsdl2py script creates the Pythoncode, of the various components which, in a WSDL document defined.

wsdl2dispatch

The script should wsdl2dispatch wsdl2py performed because wsdl2dispatch wsdl2py by imported generated code. This script generates a module, which is a service interface, the WSDL defined. This interface is usually implemented by a HTTP server involved.

5.2 The WSDL on the Python code

The wsdl2py script is the primary rwerkzeug. It creates all the Code, which is necessary to a Web Service by a published WSDL accessible. Normally, the WSDL URL is online on to the script will be made available.

Wsdl2py creates a 'stub' module from the WSDL SOAP bindings. This module contains various classes, including a Locator, the bindings to actual Web Service, some Port classes that are used to operations on the Web-Service menu and various news classes which the types of the SOAP and XML scheme. The instance of a message will be in XML.

A second module, the 'types' module, includes the Typecodes, all ingredients of the scheme, which by the WSDL specified (except the 'build in types' as xsd:int, etc.). All Schemabestandteile in top-level declared, the immediate children of the circuit- tags, have a global scope. By embedding the 'types' module receives an application access to the global Element and/or type definitions.

5.2.1 wsdl2py - The basics of Codeerstellung

Client Module

By the call to wsdl2py without additional parameters of the WSDL a Client scaffolding, created in the WSDL background information about services, the Bindings, the port and the news.

class Locator( **keywords)

The following keywords may be used:

The four items (Service, binding, Port and message) will by three abstractions. These consist of a Locator-class, a PortType -class and some news-classes. The Locator has two methods for each Service-Port, in the WSDL defined. A method, the address back in the binding specified and the other is a Factory-method for the return of PortType instance.

Types Module

The types module, together with the Client module, but it can also without generated. It is particularly suited to deal with the Schema definitions, which is not in a WSDL specified.

The classes on module plane form a unique namespace, just as packaging of individual Namespaces serves. The inner classes are the order representation of the global type - (featured _Def) - and Elementdefinitionen (featured _Dec).

Typecode Explained

As stated above, there are two types of order classes. Element definitionen can directly in XML transferred, type definitions in general but not. Put simply, that means the attribute 'name' a Element deklaration into an XML - day convicted. Since Typendefinitionen not attribute 'name' own, they cannot directly in a XML instance illustrated. Most of the elements define a 'type' attribute, which must refer a type safety. So if the previous execution can be seen observed: a generated order class, which represents a Element Definition includes a sub-class order with the Type Definition.

pyclass

Any instances of order classes have generated an attribute 'pyclass'. Instances of Pyclass are produced for data storage, a Elementdeklaration. The Pyclass itself has an attribute 'order' is a reference to the order instance that describes the data. This makes pyclass instances even descriptive. If a XML instance parsed, the data assigned a pyclass instance.

ANAME

Aname is an attribute of a order instance. Its value is a string of the attribute names, which used the data, which constitute a Element Deklaration. The sentence to support element names as 'NCName', this is a superset of the ordinary identifiers in Python.

Namespaces in XML

From Namespaces in XML

   NCName ::= (Letter | '_') (NCNameChar)*
   NCNameChar ::= Letter | Digit | '.' | '-' | '_' | CombiningChar | Extender

From Python Reference Manual (2.3 Identifiers and keywords)

   identifier ::= (letter|'_') (letter | digit | '_')*

Default set of anames

   ANAME ::= ('_') (letter | digit | '_')*

The AName NCName transform

. Preceded underscore ' ' preceded stressed
. Characters that are not in the character set (, Zir, ' '), occur, ' ' replaced.

Attribute Deklarationen: attrs_aname

This is an attribute of a instance.

Its value is a string the attribute names which used to access a dictionary. This enth?alt data which the Attributdeklaration.

Attrs_aname is an attribute of a TypeCode instance. Its value is a string the attribute names which used to access a dictionary. This includes data which the Attribute Deklaration. The key to this dictionary are a (namespace, Name) tuplet. The value of each key represents the value of the Attributes.

5.2.2 Typecode Extensions

The option {complexType, -b: the Option {complexType when invoking wsdl2py provides the programr many simplifications to Verf?ugung. This option is tested and the use of the authors recommended.

Low-level Description :

If the Option {complexType set all the attribute generated pyclasses metaclass hinzugef?ugt. The Metaklasse pr?uft the order attributes of pyclass and created a set of Hilfsmethoden f?ur each Element and attribute that in the De �economic of the ComplexType specified. This option f?ugt Wrapper f?ur the handling of the content added, without the generation of ?andern.

Getter/Setter:

A getter and a setters method is f?ur each element of a complex types de�and. These methods will get element ANAME ANAME and set element.

Factory Method:

If an element of complex type himself a complex type, it is for easier handling a factory method creates an instance of the holder class of type zur?uckgibt. The factory method is called 'newANAME'.

Attributes:

Four Python classes are four each element of a complex type properties (properties) creates. These are on the appropriate getter and setter methods of the element illustrated. Namens?uberschneidungen order to avoid these properties 'PNAME',, the first letter of the pname attribute a large type written

fromm ZSI.ServiceContainer import ServiceContainer, SOAPRequestHandler
from MatheService_services_server import MatheService

    def do_GET(self):
    #Return the WSDL file. We expect to get the location from the
    #invocation URL ("path").
        wsdlfile = os.path.join('.', self.path.replace('/', "", 1) + ".wsdl")
        print ">>>>> using wsdl file", wsdlfile
        wsdl = open(wsdlfile).read()
        self.send_xml(wsdl)
        
# Copied from ZSI.ServiceContainer, extended to instantiate with a custom
# request handler

    address = ('127.0.0.1', port)
    sc = ServiceContainer(address, RequestHandlerClass=RequestHandlerClass)
    for service in services:
        path = service.getPost()
        sc.setNode(service, path)
    sc.serve_forever()
