Java: Get Sample Request XML from wsdl
java, soap, web-services, wsdl, xml
Solution
SOAPUI also provide java API to create request/response
public class SOAPInputGenerator {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
WsdlProject project = new WsdlProject();
WsdlInterface[] wsdls = WsdlImporter.importWsdl(project, "http://localhost:7000/Solicitud?wsdl");
WsdlInterface wsdl = wsdls[0];
for (Operation operation : wsdl.getOperationList()) {
WsdlOperation wsdlOperation = (WsdlOperation) operation;
System.out.println("OP:"+wsdlOperation.getName());
System.out.println("Request:");
System.out.println(wsdlOperation.createRequest(true));
System.out.println("Response:");
System.out.println(wsdlOperation.createResponse(true));
}
}
}
JAR location for SOAP UI libraries
http://www.soapui.org/repository/eviware/jars/
If you don't want use SOAPUI directly , you may find `reficio` which would be very useful. Subset of SoapUI library API with example can be find here
https://github.com/reficio/soap-ws
http://www.reficio.org/projects/
This is an open-source project to support SOAP in a purely XML way in Java
Problem
Is there any way one could get the sample request xml using the wsdl(url) alone? Here is a sample wsdl: http://www.webservicemart.com/uszip.asmx?WSDL Sample Request: ``` <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ws="http://webservicemart.com/ws/"> <soapenv:Header/> <soapenv:Body> <ws:ValidateZip> <!--Optional:--> <ws:ZipCode>?</ws:ZipCode> </ws:ValidateZip> </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> ``` I know there are tools out there like SOAPUI and others which could do this. But is there any other way without using these tools once could achieve it using java? Using wsimport would be one option that would get me the java source, this is more static. Is there a dynamic way to do this?
