Hi there,

I have installed ggwebservices extension to consume external webservice in EZ Publish 4.3.

In debugger section, how can I check that I am able to connect to external server and get the methods of web service?Under Remote Servers section (in left column), remote server name is grayed out, it is not a link.

Below are the settings I have for remote server in wsproviders.ini.append.php

[trx]
providerType=PhpSOAP
providerUri=https://services.resx.com/xapi/v9.0/xapi.asmx
providerUsername=username provided by webservice provider
providerPassword=password provided by webservice provider

ProxyServer=proxyname:port

Location of wsproviders.ini.append.php file - settings/override

I do not understand what I am missing here?

Can you please advise?

Thanks

Anaya

Because of soapui I definitely know that SOAP request/response is sent ok.

I am sorry, but the debugger is currently (version 0.5) limited to debugging xmlrpc and jsonrpc services. That's why you see the name of your target server grayed out in the right column.

The next version, due for release before the end of the week, will support debugging ezjscore webservices too.

For soap debugging, you will most likely have to wait until version 0.7 or maybe even later...

Thanks for your quick reply.

But if I am not wrong I can call external soap web service in a template using this extension, right?

So i tried below fetch function to fetch one of the webservice methods -

{def $ws = fetch('wsdl path', 'method name', 'paramaters')}

{$ws.responseParameter}

in wsproviders.ini.append.php file

[trx]
providerType=PhpSOAP
providerUri=https://services.resx.com/xapi/v9.0/xapi.asmx
providerUsername=username provided by webservice provider
providerPassword=password provided by webservice provider

No wsdl specified in the wsproviders.ini.append.php

But this function is not returning anything?

Please let me know if I have missed anything here?

Thanks

Anaya

Yes, you can do what you want with this extension.

I think you have it slightly wrong: you should put the path to the wsdl in the ini file and the name of the operation in the template call.

[trx]
providerType=PhpSOAP
providerUri=
WSDL=https://services.resx.com/xapi/v9.0/xapi.asmx?WSDL
providerUsername=username provided by webservice provider
providerPassword=password provided by webservice provider

then

{def $ws = fetch('webservices', 'send', hash('server', 'trx', 'method', $method_name', 'paramaters', $params))}
