Trying to send a soap message directly at a server

Max Russell

2/2/2007 1:46:00 PM

I've now tried 2 different methods of sending a soap message (read in
from a file) at a server, one using the net/http library the other a
socket.

require 'soap/wsdlDriver'
require 'rexml/document'
#require 'net/http'
require 'socket'
include Socket::Constants

file = File.new("PDSUpdate.xml")
doc = REXML::Document.new(file)
#puts doc
#http.post("http://inpsesrh02.inpses.co.uk:..., doc)

socket = Socket.new( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0 )
sockaddr = Socket.pack_sockaddr_in( 7779,
'inpsesrh02.inpses.co.uk/orabpel/default/' )
socket.connect( sockaddr )
socket.puts doc
socket.close

Can anyone please tell me the simplest way of sending a SOAP message
directly at an address and port. I don't need the WSDL as I already know
the available methods, and just want to write a test stub.

I have had a look previously, what I'm needing is a howto I suppose. The
documentation around some of this stuff is a bit flaky..

Here's what I do in the console (for testing purposes):

require "soap/wsdlDriver"
wsdl_url = "http://webservices.globaladdress.net/globaladdress.asmx?...
factory = SOAP::WSDLDriverFactory.new(wsdl_url)
driver = factory.create_rpc_driver

This allows me to use the SOAP services available on the GlobalAddress
server.

I can do a driver.methods to find out what methods (services) are
available but in reality I already know what methods are available to me.

Do you have a WSDL file to reference?


Disclosure: I'm new to all this too so this may be a case of the blind
leading the blind but I am successfully consuming services except I've
also hit a snag too but that's the topic of another thread :)

So what happens when you try these methods?

What does tcpdump (Linux) or ethereal (Windows) show at the network level?

tcpdump -i eth0 -n -s1500 -vX tcp port 80

Why require these libraries? AFAICT you're just trying to send a
pre-existing XML file over HTTP.

I'd suggest you don't parse the document using REXML. Just read it in as a
file, and then squirt it out over the HTTP connection. I'm not sure how
http.post will cope with being given an REXML::Document object.

Try "ri Net::HTTP" for some samples of how to do a HTTP POST.
(or "ri1.8 Net::HTTP" under Ubuntu).

Capture the result in a variable, e.g. res = http.post ...
and inspect it.

Perhaps you should be posting to a more specific URL, e.g.
http.post("http://inpsesrh02.inpses.co.uk:7778/foo/m..., doc)

Doing it this way you'd want a TCPSocket.
See http://www.rubycentral.com/book/lib_ne...
for some examples.

HTH,

That nothing was going out over HTTP at all.

The soap/wsdlDriver was a hangover from my hacking (in vain) session...

I've had a look at this documentation, the sections pertaining to POST
all refer to form data (e.g. looking at a search box and posting info,
setting dates and posting etc.) , rather than an individual POST of a
file.

Think I'd prefer to avoid the socket route if possible anyway.

It looks easy enough to me:

require 'net/http'

doc = <<EOS
<foo>
bar!
</foo>
EOS

res = nil
Net::HTTP.start("rubyforge.org", 80) do |http|
res = http.post('/wibble/wobble', doc)
end
puts res.inspect

I'll try that, thanks. RI didn't turn up anything like that example. It
has sections on posting form data, but nothing with a simple post.

The problem is that there are people that believe this rubbish. It
takes only 10% of the population to stop vaccinating and the diseases
start taking hold again. That is why I asked Tesla in an earlier post
why there are no emergency departments for naturopaths or homeopaths.
The reason I asked her was because when they really have to put their
beliefs to the ultimate test, they fail! No amount of natural medicine
is going to protect you against polio, measles, mumps, etc....
