HTTP Client Processor?
Locked
 
|
I need to consume a web service that expects requests in the form of an HTTP multi-part POST. Is there already a processor in OPS that can act as an HTTP client (ie. that implements Jakarta Commons HttpClient), or should I implement my own custom processor?

Re: JavaScript error loading xforms.js

I am using the 09_29_2006 nightly build, and when any of my pages load, I get this JavaScript error. Error: element has no properties Source File: http://localhost:8888/CSC_PFW_30_CORE/ops/javascript/xforms.js Line: 195 Which corresponds to this line in xforms.js - if (!element.orbeonClasses) { as seen in the code fragment below: hasClass: function(element, className) { if (!element.orbeonClasses) { element.orbeonClasses = {}; var classes = element.className.split(" "); for (var i = 0; i < classes.length; i++) element.orbeonClasses[classes[i]] = true; } return element.orbeonClasses[className] == true; }, Is this an issue in xforms.js, or is it something I am doing wrong? Also... I cannot seem to get the following JavaScript function to return a value: var value = ORBEON.xforms.Document.getValue("myControl") Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Matt Try taking a look at these two in the
documentation: http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/reference-page-flow#external-submission http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/reference-page-flow#accessing-submission You should be able to pick up the data
directly I think. You can access the HTTP request directly
as well using the oxf:request generator processor. Steve From: Matt Zumwalt

Thanks Steve,
If I'm not confused, the external submission is a way for other applications to pass XML into a page in the OPS Page Flow via HTTP POST. I need the opposite of that. How can I set up a processor in my pipeline that acts as a HTTP client using HTTP POST to pass info out to another application via HTTP POST, dumping that application's response to the processor's output? I would expect this to be listed as one of the delegation processors if it existed, so my guess is that there isn't currently a processor to do the job. Am I completely off base here?

Matt,
Or this one which is not documented yet and makes use of the XForms model: http://mail-archive.objectweb.org/ops-users/2006-05/msg00237.html Ross. On 03/10/06, Henrik Pettersen <[hidden email]> wrote:

All,
Even better, we have now packaged this in a processor called oxf:xforms-submission.

Matt,
We have now exposed the HTTP processor as oxf:xforms-submission, see the doc here: http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/processors-submission Now unfortunately we don't yet support method="multipart-post". When implemented, it will act like specified here: http://www.w3.org/TR/xforms/slice11.html#serialize-multipart In your particular case, what must the different parts contain? If it is too different from what XForms will do, you will probably have to either write your own processor, or add and implement a custom method to the XForms submission code (like xxforms:multipart-post). -Erik Matt Zumwalt wrote: > I need to consume a web service that expects requests in the form of an > HTTP multi-part POST.

Hi Erik,
I tried your doc example for the get request : "This is how you perform a GET of an XML document to the URL |http://example.org/list?first=12&size=100|:" <p:processor name="oxf:xforms-submission"> <p:input name="submission"> <xforms:submission method="get" action="http://example.org/list"/> </p:input> <p:input name="request"> <parameters> <first>12</first> <size>100</size> </parameters> </p:input> <p:output name="response" id="response"/> </p:processor> The server receiving the url shows this one as |http://example.org/list?first=12;size=100. The & is a ; |It's an aspx page on IIS. Any idea ? -- Marc Erik Bruchez a écrit : > All, > > Even better, we have now packaged this in a processor called > oxf:xforms-submission.

Marc,
Good catch. This is because the default separator in XForms is ";". Add separator="&" to switch to "&". I updated the example as well in the doc. -Erik marc wrote: > Hi Erik, > > I tried your doc example for the get request : > > "This is how you perform a GET of an XML document to the URL > |http://example.org/list?first=12&size=100|:" > > <p:processor name="oxf:xforms-submission"> <p:input name="submission"> > <xforms:submission method="get" action="http://example.org/list"/> > </p:input> > <p:input name="request"> > <parameters> > <first>12</first> > <size>100</size> > </parameters> > </p:input> > <p:output name="response" id="response"/> > </p:processor> > > The server receiving the url shows this one as > |http://example.org/list?first=12;size=100. > The & is a ; > |It's an aspx page on IIS.

Thanks Erik and Ross, The submission processor looks really useful. I'm glad to see it there. For my current task, I need to perform a multipart-post and I also need to authenticate with the HTTP server, so I will either write my own processor or extend yours. If my code ends up being recyclable, I will share it. Nice work. OPS is great.

Matt,
Thanks! The ideal way would be to build on oxf:xforms-submission, but I understand if this turns out to be hard. The code is mainly in XFormsModelSubmission.java and XFormsSubmissionUtils.java. For Basic HTTP authentication, you can either use username and password in the action URL: action="http://john:password@.../my/service" or you can use, on xforms:submission: xxforms:username="john" xxforms:password="password" I have updated the doc as well: http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/processors-submission#authentication -Erik Matt Zumwalt wrote: > Thanks Erik and Ross, > > The submission processor looks really useful.
