Web services SOAP
- 1. Web Services Using SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI Part1-Soap
- 2. What are “Web Services”? • IBM – “A Web service is an interface that describes a collection of operations that are network accessible through standardized XML messaging” • Microsoft: XML Web Services – “.. expose useful functionality to Web users through a standard Web protocol” – “.. provide a way to describe their interfaces in enough detail to allow a user to build a client application to talk to them” – “.. are registered so that potential users can find them easily”
- 3. Why Web Services? • From business standpoint – Integration • Within an organization • Between companies • Allows time/cost efficiencies – Purchase orders – Answering inquiries – Processing shipment requests • Do this without locking in to a single partner
- 4. Web Service Architecture • Service-Oriented Architecture Service Registry Service Requestor Service Provider Find Publish Bind
- 5. Architecture II • All the technologies are XML based … Registry (UDDI) Service Requestor Service Provider Find Publish Bind (SOAP) (SOAP) (WSDL)
- 6. XML Leveraging Features • XML Namespaces – Collision • Common XML element names – Application specific or embedded in message? – Allows composition of multiple XML documents • Identifies elements belonging to the same document type
- 7. XML Leveraging Features II • XML Schemas – Alternative to DTDs for describing document structure – Written in XML • Simple types • Complex types – Reusable • Intended to be used with namespaces
- 8. SOAP • Simple Object Access Protocol • Web service messaging and invocation • 2nd Generation XML Protocol – Takes advantage of • XML Namespaces • XML Schema
- 9. First Generation XML Protocol • Based on XML 1.0 • Example: XML-RPC – Introduced by Userland in 1998 – Uses HTTP as underlying transport <methodResponse> <params> <param> <value> <string>twenty-eight</string> </value> </param> </params> </methodResponse> Call Response <methodCall> <methodName>NumberToText</methodName> <params> <param> <value><i4>28</i4></value> </param> </params> </methodCall>
- 10. First Gen. XML Protocol Issues • Extensibility – All protocol architects had to agree for changes – Avoid with namespaces • Datatyping – Single DTDs • Limited in use of XML elements • Descriptive nature of XML sacrificed – XML schema is a better solution
- 11. SOAP History 1998 • Term SOAP coined at Microsoft 1999 • Microsoft works with BizTalk to release SOAP 0.9 • Submitted to IETF • SOAP 1.0 released in December 2000 • SOAP 1.1 submitted to W3C with IBM • IBM releases a Java SOAP implementation • Sun starts work on Web services in J2EE 2001 • SOAP 1.2 released by XML Protocol working group at W3C Currently, about 80+ SOAP implementations available including Apple…
- 12. SOAP Messaging Layers App API SOAP, XML Processing App API SOAP, XML Processing SOAP Message SOAP Message HTTP HTTP Developer SOAP Service Provider HTTP Client ProviderView
- 13. SOAP Message <Envelope> </Envelope> <Header> </Header> <Body> </Body> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
- 14. SOAP Envelope • Root element • Mandatory • Does not expose any protocol versions – Protocol version is the URI of SOAP envelope namespace – encodingStyle attribute for complex types <SOAP-ENV:Envelope SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/ xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
- 15. SOAP Header • Optional • Allows packaging of information orthogonal to message – Transactions • Authentication information • Account information • SOAP-ENV:mustUnderstand
- 16. SOAP-ENV:mustUnderstand • Attribute for Header element • Value 0 – skip this element if it doesn’t make sense • Value 1 – must fail if it doesn’t make sense – Ensures recipients be aware of important protocol extensions <SOAP-ENV:Header> <t:client xmlns:t=“Some-URI” SOAP-ENV:mustUnderstand=“0”> [email protected] </t:client> </SOAP-ENV:Header>
- 17. SOAP Body • Can contain arbitrary XML • Conventions for – RPCs – Faults • Faultcode – lookup string • Faultstring – human readable string • Faultactor – where in the message path • Detail – optional – Data encoding
- 18. Data encoding in SOAP • SOAP provides default encoding schema – Why reinvent the wheel? • Simple data types – Use “xsi:type” – String, floats etc • Complex data types – SOAP arrays – Structs: compound types • Data referencing – Href and id attributes
- 19. Data encoding in SOAP • Binary data – Base64 encoding • Can roll your own schema – encodingStyle – Interoperability issues
- 20. SOAP Protocol Binding: HTTP <Envelope> <Header> </Header> <Body> <LookupPerson …> </LookupPerson> </Body> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> </Envelope> POST /ServiceLoc HTTP/1.1 Host: www.foo.com Content-Type: text/xml; charset=“utf-8” Content-Length: nnnn SOAPAction: “Directory/Service” Out-of- message context In-message context Sample RPC Call
- 21. Other SOAP Protocol Bindings • HTTPS – Similar to HTTP • Use POST • Return 200 for success • 500 for failure + SOAP fault • SOAPAction HTTP header for hint • MIME media type: text/html • SMTP • SOAP messages with Attachments
- 22. SOAP RPC Example: getQuote import SOAP server = SOAP.SOAPProxy("http://services.xmethods.com:80/soap", namespace = 'urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes') print "IBM>>", server.getQuote(symbol = 'IBM')
- 23. RPC Invocation Message <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <SOAP-ENV:Envelope SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"> <SOAP-ENV:Body> <ns1:getQuote xmlns:ns1="urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes" SOAP-ENC:root="1"> <symbol xsi:type="xsd:string">IBM</symbol> </ns1:getQuote> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
- 24. RPC Reply Message <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/' xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance' xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema' xmlns:soapenc='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/' soap:encodingStyle='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/'> <soap:Body> <n:getQuoteResponse xmlns:n='urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes'> <Result xsi:type='xsd:float'>107.89</Result> </n:getQuoteResponse> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope>
