Spring WS – Writing Server


Spring WS – Writing Server


”;


In this chapter, we will understand how to create a web application server using Spring WS.

Step Description
1 Create a project with a name countryService under a package com.tutorialspoint as explained in the Spring WS – First Application chapter.
2 Create countries.xsd, domain classes, CountryRepository and CountryEndPoint as explained in the following steps.
3 Update spring-ws-servlet.xml under the /WEB-INF sub-folder.
4 The final step is to create content for all the source and configuration files and export the application as explained below.

countries.xsd

<xs:schema xmlns:xs = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
   xmlns:tns = "http://tutorialspoint/schemas"
   targetNamespace = "http://tutorialspoint/schemas" 
   elementFormDefault = "qualified">

   <xs:element name = "getCountryRequest">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element name = "name" type = "xs:string"/>
         </xs:sequence>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>

   <xs:element name = "getCountryResponse">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element name = "country" type = "tns:country"/>
         </xs:sequence>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>

   <xs:complexType name = "country">
      <xs:sequence>
         <xs:element name = "name" type = "xs:string"/>
         <xs:element name = "population" type = "xs:int"/>
         <xs:element name = "capital" type = "xs:string"/>
         <xs:element name = "currency" type = "tns:currency"/>
      </xs:sequence>
   </xs:complexType>

   <xs:simpleType name = "currency">
      <xs:restriction base = "xs:string">
         <xs:enumeration value = "GBP"/>
         <xs:enumeration value = "USD"/>
         <xs:enumeration value = "INR"/>
      </xs:restriction>
   </xs:simpleType>
</xs:schema>

Create the Project

Let us open the command console, go the C:MVN directory and execute the following mvn command.

C:MVN>mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId = org.springframework.ws 
-DarchetypeArtifactId = spring-ws-archetype -DgroupId = com.tutorialspoint 
-DartifactId = countryService

Maven will start processing and will create the complete Java Application Project Structure.

Now go to C:/MVN directory. We will see a java application project created named countryService (as specified in artifactId). Update the pom.xml.

Create Domain Classes

Copy the countries.xsd in C:mvncountryServicesrcmainresources folder. Let us open the command console, go the C:mvncountryServicesrcmainresources directory and execute the following xjc command to generate domain classes using the countries.xsd.

C:MVNcountryServicesrcmainresources>xjc -p com.tutorialspoint countries.xsd

Maven will start processing and will create the domain classes in com.tutorialspoint package.

comtutorialspointCountry.java
comtutorialspointCurrency.java
comtutorialspointGetCountryRequest.java
comtutorialspointGetCountryResponse.java
comtutorialspointObjectFactory.java
comtutorialspointpackage-info.java

Create folder java in C:mvncountryServicesrcmain folder. Copy all the classes in the C:mvncountryServicesrcmainjava folder. Create CountryRepository and CountryEndPoint to represent the country database and country server respectively.

CountryRepository.java

package com.tutorialspoint;

   public void initData() {
      Country us = new Country();
      us.setName("United States");
      us.setCapital("Washington");
      us.setCurrency(Currency.USD);
      us.setPopulation(46704314);
   
      countries.add(us);
   
      Country india = new Country();
      india.setName("India");
      india.setCapital("New Delhi");
      india.setCurrency(Currency.INR);
      india.setPopulation(138186860);

      countries.add(india);
    
      Country uk = new Country();
      uk.setName("United Kingdom");
      uk.setCapital("London");
      uk.setCurrency(Currency.GBP);
      uk.setPopulation(63705000);
   
      countries.add(uk);
   }
   public Country findCountry(String name) {
      Assert.notNull(name);
      Country result = null;

      for (Country country : countries) {
         if (name.trim().equals(country.getName())) {
            result = country;
         }
      }
      return result;
   }
}

CountryEndPoint.java

package com.tutorialspoint.ws;

Build the Project

Let us open the command console. Go the C:MVNcountryService directory and execute the following mvn command.

C:MVNcountryService>mvn clean package

Maven will start building the project.

Run the Project

Once we have created the source and configuration files, export the countryService.war file in Tomcat”s webapps folder.

Now, start the Tomcat server and ensure if we can access other webpages from the webapps folder using a standard browser. Make a POST request to the URL – http://localhost:8080/countryService/ and by using any SOAP client make the following request.

<x:Envelope xmlns:x = "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" 
   xmlns:tns = "http://tutorialspoint/schemas">
   <x:Header/>
   <x:Body>
      <tns:getCountryRequest>
         <tns:name>United States</tns:name>
      </tns:getCountryRequest>
   </x:Body>
</x:Envelope>

You will see the following result.

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV = "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
   <SOAP-ENV:Header/>
   <SOAP-ENV:Body>
      <ns2:getCountryResponse xmlns:ns2 = "http://tutorialspoint/schemas">
         <ns2:country>
            <ns2:name>United States</ns2:name>
            <ns2:population>46704314</ns2:population>
            <ns2:capital>Washington</ns2:capital>
            <ns2:currency>USD</ns2:currency>
         </ns2:country>
      </ns2:getCountryResponse>
   </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
