Accessing web services

To call a web service at http://foo.com/bar simply define a route:

Code Block

from("direct:example").to("spring-ws:http://foo.com/bar")

And sent a message:

Code Block

template.requestBody("direct:example", "<foobar xmlns=\"http://foo.com\"><msg>test message</msg></foobar>");

...

When a remote web service requires a SOAP action or use of the WS-Addressing standard you define your route as:

Code Block

from("direct:example")
.to("spring-ws:http://foo.com/bar?soapAction=http://foo.com&wsAddressingAction=http://bar.com")

Optionally you can override the endpoint options with header values:

Code Block

template.requestBodyAndHeader("direct:example",
"<foobar xmlns=\"http://foo.com\"><msg>test message</msg></foobar>",
SpringWebserviceConstants.SPRING_WS_SOAP_ACTION, "http://baz.com");

...

You can provide the SOAP header(s) as a Camel Message header when sending a message to a spring-ws endpoint, for example given the following SOAP header in a String

Code Block

String body = ...
String soapHeader = "<h:Header xmlns:h=\"http://www.webserviceX.NET/\"><h:MessageID>1234567890</h:MessageID><h:Nested><h:NestedID>1111</h:NestedID></h:Nested></h:Header>";

We can set the body and header on the Camel Message as follows:

Code Block

exchange.getIn().setBody(body);
exchange.getIn().setHeader(SpringWebserviceConstants.SPRING_WS_SOAP_HEADER, soapHeader);

...

Spring WS Camel supports propagation of the headers and attachments into Spring-WS WebServiceMessage response since version 2.10.3.
The  The endpoint will use so called "hook" the MessageFilter (default implementation is provided by BasicMessageFilter) to propagate the exchange headers and attachments into WebSdrviceMessage WebServiceMessage response.
Now  Now you can use

Code Block

exchange.getOut().getHeaders().put("myCustom","myHeaderValue")
exchange.getIn().addAttachment("myAttachment", new DataHandler(...))

Note: If the exchange header in the pipeline contains text, it generates Qname(key)=value attribute in the soap header.
Recommended is to create a QName class directly and put into any key into header.

...

The BasicMessageFilter provides all required information for Apache Axiom in order to produce MTOM message. If you want to use Apache Camel Spring WS within Apache Axiom, here is an example:
1. Simply define the messageFactory as is bellow and springSpring-ws WS will use MTOM strategy to populate your SOAP message with optimized attachments.

Code Block

<bean id="axiomMessageFactory"
class="org.springframework.ws.soap.axiom.AxiomSoapMessageFactory">
<property name="payloadCaching" value="false" />
<property name="attachmentCaching" value="true" />
<property name="attachmentCacheThreshold" value="1024" />
</bean>

2. Add into your pom.xml the following dependencies

Code Block

<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.ws.commons.axiom</groupId>
<artifactId>axiom-api</artifactId>
<version>1.2.13</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.ws.commons.axiom</groupId>
<artifactId>axiom-impl</artifactId>
<version>1.2.13</version>
<scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>

3. Add your attachment into the pipeline, for example using a Processor implementation.

Code Block

private class Attachement implements Processor {
public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception
{ exchange.getOut().copyFrom(exchange.getIn()); File file = new File("testAttachment.txt"); exchange.getOut().addAttachment("test", new DataHandler(new FileDataSource(file)));	 }
}

4. Define endpoint (producer) as ussual, for example like this:

Code Block

from("direct:send")
.process(new Attachement())
.to("spring-ws:http://localhost:8089/mySoapService?soapAction=mySoap&messageFactory=axiomMessageFactory");

...

If you need to provide your custome custom processing of either headers or attachments, extend existing BasicMessageFilter and override the approchiate appropriate methods or write a brand new implementation of the MessageFilter interface.
To use your custom filter, add this into your spring context:

You can specify either a global a or a local message filter as follows:
a) the global custome custom filter that provides the global configuration for all springSpring-ws WS endpoints

Code Block
 
<bean id="messageFilter" class="your.domain.myMessageFiler" scope="singleton" />

or
b) the local messageFilter directly on the endpoint as follows:

Code Block

to("spring-ws:http://yourdomain.com?messageFilter=#myEndpointSpecificMessageFilter");

...

If you want to create your own MessageFilter, consider overrideing overriding the following methods in the default implementation of MessageFilter in class BasicMessageFilter:

Code Block

protected void doProcessSoapHeader(Message inOrOut, SoapMessage soapMessage)
{your code /*no need to call super*/ }

protected void doProcessSoapAttachements(Message inOrOut, SoapMessage response)
{ your code /*no need to call super*/ }

...

A custom message sender or factory in the registry can be referenced like this:

Code Block

from("direct:example")
.to("spring-ws:http://foo.com/bar?messageFactory=#messageFactory&messageSender=#messageSender")

...

The following route will receive all web service requests that have a root element named "GetFoo" within the http://example.com/ namespace.

Code Block

from("spring-ws:rootqname:{http://example.com/}GetFoo?endpointMapping=#endpointMapping")
.convertBodyTo(String.class).to(mock:example)

The following route will receive web service requests containing the http://example.com/GetFoo SOAP action.

Code Block

from("spring-ws:soapaction:http://example.com/GetFoo?endpointMapping=#endpointMapping")
.convertBodyTo(String.class).to(mock:example)

The following route will receive all requests sent to http://example.com/foobar.

Code Block

from("spring-ws:uri:http://example.com/foobar?endpointMapping=#endpointMapping")
.convertBodyTo(String.class).to(mock:example)

The route below will receive requests that contain the element <foobar>abc</foobar> anywhere inside the message (and the default namespace).

Code Block

from("spring-ws:xpathresult:abc?expression=//foobar&endpointMapping=#endpointMapping")
.convertBodyTo(String.class).to(mock:example)

...

An example of a route using beanname:

Code Block

<camelContext xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring">
	<route>
		<from uri="spring-ws:beanname:QuoteEndpointDispatcher" />
		<to uri="mock:example" />
	</route>
</camelContext>

<bean id="legacyEndpointMapping" class="org.springframework.ws.server.endpoint.mapping.PayloadRootQNameEndpointMapping">
    <property name="mappings">
        <props>
            <prop key="{http://example.com/}GetFuture">FutureEndpointDispatcher</prop>
            <prop key="{http://example.com/}GetQuote">QuoteEndpointDispatcher</prop>
        </props>
    </property>
</bean>

<bean id="QuoteEndpointDispatcher" class="org.apache.camel.component.spring.ws.bean.CamelEndpointDispatcher" />
<bean id="FutureEndpointDispatcher" class="org.apache.camel.component.spring.ws.bean.CamelEndpointDispatcher" />

...

When accessing web services you can marshal the request and unmarshal the response message:

Code Block

JaxbDataFormat jaxb = new JaxbDataFormat(false);
jaxb.setContextPath("com.example.model");

from("direct:example").marshal(jaxb).to("spring-ws:http://foo.com/bar").unmarshal(jaxb);

Similarly when providing web services, you can unmarshal XML requests to POJO's and marshal the response message back to XML:

Code Block

from("spring-ws:rootqname:{http://example.com/}GetFoo?endpointMapping=#endpointMapping").unmarshal(jaxb)
.to("mock:example").marshal(jaxb);
