Description

The HTTP inbound adapter works identifying an Action and then defining a mapping between the Action and a Formatter.

The Action is defined by the value of the request parameter GV_ACTION (REMOVED in v3.4).

The formatter defines how to parse the request parameters and how to build the response in case of successful or failed ESB's invocation.

The client can send HTTP requests at two url: 

  • http://<host>:<port>/gvhttp/inbound/<action>
  • http://<host>:<port>/gvhttp/secure/inbound/<action>    (requires authentication)


GreenVulcano® ESB Configuration

The GVAdapterHttpConfiguration Element is used by: GVAdapters.

The following table shows the GVAdapterHttpConfiguration attributes:

Attribute Type Description
type fixed This attribute must assume the value module.
name fixed Module Id always set to HTTP_ADAPTER.

Contains the sub-elements InboundConfiguration Formatters.

InboundConfiguration

Contains the sub-elements:

ActionMappings

This element can contain more sub-elements:

ActionMapping

An ActionMapping defines a mapping between a request Action and a configured Formatter.

The following table shows the ActionMapping attributes:

Attribute Type Description
Action required Defines the action name, referenced by the request parameter GV_ACTION. The attribute's value cannot be null.
FormatterID required References a Formatter to be used to marshall/unmarshall the data. The attribute's value cannot be null.
RespContentType optional ContentType to be declared while handling HTTP responses to the external system. Default to text/html and is used only if not defined by the formatter.

The possible values are:

  • text/html
  • text/xml
  • text/json
  • text/javascript
  • application/xml
  • application/json
  • application/x-www-form-urlencoded
enabled required This parameter defines if an action must be processed.

Each ActionMapping can contain the following sub-elements:


GVCoreActionMapping

An GVCoreActionMapping defines a mapping between a request Action and a configured Formatter in order to invoke a GreenVulcano® ESB service.

The following table shows the GVCoreActionMapping attributes:

Attribute Type Description
type fixed This attribute must assume the value action-mapping.
class fixed This attribute must assume the value it.greenvulcano.gvesb.adapter.http.mapping.GVCoreHttpServletMapping
Action required Defines the action name, must match or be a prefix in <action> part of request URL. The attribute's value cannot be null.
FormatterID required References a Formatter to be used to marshall/unmarshall the data. The attribute's value cannot be null.
RespContentType optional ContentType to be declared while handling HTTP responses to the external system. Default to text/html and is used only if not defined by the formatter.

The possible values are:

  • text/html
  • text/xml
  • text/json
  • text/javascript
  • application/xml
  • application/json
  • application/x-www-form-urlencoded
enabled required This parameter defines if an action must be processed.
dump-in-out optional If true enable the dump of the input/output HTTP data. Default false.

Sets the following properties in input to GreenVulcano® ESB workflow:

Property Description
HTTP_METHOD Requested method
HTTP_ACTION Request action
HTTP_REMOTE_ADDR Client remote address
Property Description
HTTP_PATH Request URI path component
Property Description
HTTP_QUERY Request URI query component

Each GVCoreActionMapping can contain the following sub-elements:

ForwardActionMapping

An ForwardActionMapping defines a mapping to a request Action in order to forward the request to a remote HTTP server.

The following table shows the ForwardActionMapping attributes:

Attribute Type Description
type fixed This attribute must assume the value action-mapping.
class fixed This attribute must assume the value it.greenvulcano.gvesb.adapter.http.mapping.ForwardHttpServletMapping
Action required Defines the action name, must match or be a prefix in <action> part of request URL. The attribute's value cannot be null.
enabled required This parameter defines if an action must be processed.
dump-in-out optional If true enable the dump of the input/output HTTP data. Default false.

Each ForwardActionMapping can contain the following sub-elements:


RESTActionMapping

An RESTActionMapping defines a mapping between a request Action and a configured URI/Method Mapping in order to invoke a GreenVulcano® ESB service.

The following table shows the RESTActionMapping attributes:

Attribute Type Description
type fixed This attribute must assume the value action-mapping.
class fixed This attribute must assume the value it.greenvulcano.gvesb.adapter.http.mapping.RESTHttpServletMapping
Action required Defines the action name, must match or be a prefix in <action> part of request URL. The attribute's value cannot be null.
RespContentType optional ContentType to be declared while handling HTTP responses to the external system. Default to application/xml and is used only if not defined by the GreenVulcano® ESB service.

The possible values are:

  • text/html
  • text/xml
  • text/json
  • text/javascript
  • application/xml
  • application/json
  • application/x-www-form-urlencoded
RespCharacterEncoding optional Character encoding to be used while handling HTTP responses to the external system. Default to UTF-8 and is used only if not defined by the GreenVulcano® ESB service.

The possible values are:

  • US-ASCII
  • ISO-8859-1
  • ISO-LATIN-1
  • UTF-8
  • UTF-16BE
  • UTF-16LE
  • UTF-16
enabled required This parameter defines if an action must be processed.
dump-in-out optional If true enable the dump of the input/output HTTP data. Default false.

Sets the following properties in input to GreenVulcano® ESB workflow:

Property Description
HTTP_METHOD Requested method
HTTP_ACTION Request action
HTTP_PATH Request URI path component
HTTP_REMOTE_ADDR Client remote address
HTTP_REQ_CONTENT_TYPE Request content type
HTTP_REQ_ACCEPT Request Accept header value
HTTP_REQ_HEADERS Contains, if configured in Mapping, the request HTTP headers as xml document, with the following structure 
   <Hdr>
       <h n="hdr name" v="hdr value"/>
       <h n="hdr name" v="hdr value"/>
   </Hdr>

The query string parameters (or x-www-form-urlencoded parameters in POST/PUT) are set as GVBuffer properties. For POST/PUT requests, if the request content type is application/xml or application/json or text/* the request GVBuffer object will contain a String, for other request content types the request GVBuffer object will contain a byte[].

Each RESTActionMapping can contain the following sub-elements:


Mapping

This element contains the mappings from request URI/Method and GV ESB service. The following table shows the Mapping element's attributes:

Attribute Type Description
method required Defines the HTTP Method to match.

The possible values are:

  • GET
  • PUT
  • POST
  • DELETE
pattern required Defines the rules to be matched in order to identify the request URI. 
   The URI pattern refers to the Path component only:
   http://localhost:8080/gvhttp/inbound/AddressBook/entry/123
   Path -> /AddressBook/entry/123
   Sample mapping: /APPLICATION=AddressBook/E_COLLECTION=entry/E_UUID=\d+
   The URL is splitted on / and must start with the string 'AddressBook', then must contain the string 'entry',
   then the last tocken must match the regular expression '\d+' (must be a number of at least 1 digit).
   On match, the input GVBuffer will contain the following properties:
       APPLICATION  = AddressBook
       E_COLLECTION = entry
       E_UUID       = 123
service required The GreenVulcano® ESB service to invoke
operation required The service operation to invoke
system optional The GreenVulcano® ESB system to impersonate
extract-headers optional Defines if the request headers must be extracted. Default to false.

InboundTransactions

This element contains the transaction definitions for the managed services.

Can contain the sub-element Transaction.

Transaction
