How to use output of a pipeline?

Hi Alexandra,

Thanks for the quick response.

I doubt however if that would work for my case. This if the "flow" I'm trying to achieve:

Enter data on xform -> page flow sends data to xpl -> xpl fires -> xpl sens data to page flow -> page flow redirects and sends data to xform -> xform picks up data and displays

Isn't this possible? Or is some other way better?

Best, Robin

Hello Robin,

 

I'm not sure that you can consume the response of a webservice from another xform instead of the calling source xform.

But, if you want to consume the response of the webservice in the same xform, watch here:

 

ref:   http://www.orbeon.com/orbeon/doc/reference-xforms-functions#orbeon-extensions

xxforms:call-xpl

 

<xf:trigger appearance="xxforms:link">

<xf:label class="button"><xhtml:span class="Prufen">Prüfen</xhtml:span></xf:label>

<xf:action ev:event="DOMActivate">

<xf:insert nodeset="instance('formCheckMessages')"

               origin="xxforms:call-xpl(

               '<<link_to_the_XPL_file>>', 

               'formData', 

               instance('userResponse'), 'checkMessages')"/>

</xf:action>

</xf:trigger>

 

by this, you are inserting the response of a pipeline into a defined instance.

 

If this is what you are looking for, don't hesitate to ask for more details.

 

 

regards,

Alexandru

Hello all,

 

 

 

I have this pipeline which produces a XML document after doing some SOAP calls; the pipeline is fired by a submission from a Xforms document.

 

 

 

Now I to use this XML document on another Xforms document and I’m wondering how I can access this data.

 

 

 

From my pageflow:

    <page id="search-general-submit" path-info="/search/search-general-submit" >
        <action action="search-general-perform.xpl">
              <result page="search-general-result" transform="oxf:xslt">
                  <data xsl:version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
                      <xsl:copy-of select="doc('input:instance')"></xsl:copy-of>
                  </data>
              </result>
         </action>
    </page>

 

 

 

My guess would be that I should an xforms:instance element in the consuming Xforms document referring to the data generated by the pipeline. Is that correct? If so, how would I refer to this data?

 

 

 

Best, Robin

Hello Alexandra,

Thanks anyway :-).

In case anybody else here knows how to get this data from the pipeline, I'm really interested.

Hello Robin,

 

yes, this might work quite good, but unfortunately I don't have experience with page-flow, since I'm using the xform integrated in a J2EE (JSP/Spring) application, outside Orbeon.

Hello Steve,

Thanks for the tips.

I also found this: http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/how-to/execute-xslt-from-xforms; I guess that's somewhat in line with your suggestions. I like the idea of using an XPL as a service. Any clue if this will work?

FYI it's the second approach I've used a number of times, a page with a model, but no view, and the model serializes the output (with a view you've got the risk of the epilogue picking up the output and doing its thing on it) - so I'd recommend you go for the approach in the link below.

 

Your pipeline should have an "instance" input to pick up the submission from the page; and no output - then use oxf:xml-converter followed by oxf:http-serializer to send the output back to the page.  (in the link, the example uses xml-serializer, if you read the notes here http://www.orbeon.com/orbeon/doc/processors-serializers#legacy-serializers the recommended approach now is to first use a converter and then use the http serializer).

You should be able to just define a page with a view that references your pipeline - if your view produces a "data" output then that will be received as a response to your submission.

 

Alternatively you can do it with a page with a model, and serialise the output - like this:  http://www.orbeon.com/orbeon/doc/reference-page-flow#d21e2591

                  </data>
              </result>
         </action>

My guess would be that I should an xforms:instance element in the consuming Xforms document referring to the data generated by the pipeline. Is that correct? If so, how would I refer to this data?
