SOAP is dead - long live SOAP
First of all do not write SOAP services if you can avoid it! It is over.
If you can not avoid it this package might help.
Service
package main
import (
"encoding/xml"
"fmt"
"net/http"
"github.com/globusdigital/soap"
)
// FooRequest a simple request
type FooRequest struct {
XMLName xml.Name `xml:"fooRequest"`
Foo string
}
// FooResponse a simple response
type FooResponse struct {
Bar string
}
// RunServer run a little demo server
func RunServer() {
soapServer := soap.NewServer()
soapServer.HandleOperation(
// SOAPAction
"operationFoo",
// tagname of soap body content
"fooRequest",
// RequestFactoryFunc - give the server sth. to unmarshal the request into
func() interface{} {
return &FooRequest{}
},
// OperationHandlerFunc - do something
func(request interface{}, w http.ResponseWriter, httpRequest *http.Request) (response interface{}, err error) {
fooRequest := request.(*FooRequest)
fooResponse := &FooResponse{
Bar: "Hello " + fooRequest.Foo,
}
response = fooResponse
return
},
)
err := soapServer.ListenAndServe(":8080")
fmt.Println("exiting with error", err)
}
func main() {
RunServer()
}
Client
package main
import (
"encoding/xml"
"log"
"github.com/globusdigital/soap"
)
// FooRequest a simple request
type FooRequest struct {
XMLName xml.Name `xml:"fooRequest"`
Foo string
}
// FooResponse a simple response
type FooResponse struct {
Bar string
}
func main() {
client := soap.NewClient("http://127.0.0.1:8080/", nil)
response := &FooResponse{}
httpResponse, err := client.Call("operationFoo", &FooRequest{Foo: "hello i am foo"}, response)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
log.Println(response.Bar, httpResponse.Status)
}
