Definition

One of the most commonly used technologies are the Web Services, the exposure of business services to the external world using a contract called WSDL. GreenVulcano® ESB provides a very simple method that helps developers to manage Web Services operations as:

  • create
  • invoke
  • deploy
  • publishing
  • undeploy

Any Gv service can be exposed in GreenVulcano® ESB as a Web Services.VulCon® helps the user to pubblish an ESB service as a web service, leaving the user the only task to define the data structures in order to interact with the external world. GreenVulcano® ESB provides a complete management of Web Services through Axis2 platform. It supports:

  • Web Services stateful and asynchronous
  • Processing SOAP Messages with XML parsing more efficient pull-based instead of DOM (Document Object Model)
  • Increased Scalability
  • hot deploy and undeploy

VulCon / GV Console Configuration

excelreader-call is the operation that must be configured into VulCon® or GV Console® System section, to convert an Excel file in GVBuffer.object field, in an XML document. In order to add an operation excelreader-call you must define the following fields:

  • class: it.greenvulcano.gvesb.virtual.excel.reader.GVExcelReaderCallOperation (java class that manage ExcelReaderCall invocation).
  • name: this field identify the operation name that you will use in service definition.
  • onlyData: is a boolean field, it enabled in output cell formatting informations. If 'false', insert in the XML document also the cell formatting informations.
 Default to 'true'.
  • type: call


The following example shows the configuration generated from VulCon® or GV Console® when you configure an excelreader-call operation:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<GVSystems name="SYSTEMS" type="module">
    <Systems>
        <System id-system="system-name" system-activation="on">
            <Channel id-channel="CHANNEL_NAME">
                <excelreader-call class="it.greenvulcano.gvesb.virtual.excel.reader.GVExcelReaderCallOperation"
                                  name="ReadExcelInput" type="call" onlyData="true"/>
            </Channel>    
        </System>
    </Systems>
</GVSystems>


To use an excelreader-call in a GreenVulcano® ESB service, you need to define a node of type GVOperationNode in Service section and define in the field operation-name the name defined in excelreader-call operation.

The following example shows the configuration generated from VulCon® or GV Console® when you configure an excelreader-call operation in GreenVulcano® ESB service:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<GVServices name="SERVICES" type="module">
    <Groups>
        <Group group-activation="on" id-group="DEFAULT_GRP"/>
    </Groups>
    <Services>
        <Service group-name="DEFAULT_GRP" id-service="SERVICE-NAME"
                 service-activation="on">
            <Client id-system="SYSTEM-NAME" statistics="off" system-activation="on">
                <Operation name="RequestReply" operation-activation="on"
                           out-check-type="none" type="operation">
                    <Participant id-channel="CHANNEL-NAME" id-system="SYSTEM-NAME"/>
                    <Flow first-node="excel_reader" point-x="20" point-y="112">
                        <GVOperationNode class="it.greenvulcano.gvesb.core.flow.GVOperationNode"
                                         id="excel_reader" id-system="DAMA"
                                         input="input" next-node-id="end"
                                         op-type="call"
                                         operation-name="ReadExcelInput"
                                         output="excel_xml" point-x="158"
                                         point-y="112" type="flow-node"/>
                        <GVEndNode class="it.greenvulcano.gvesb.core.flow.GVEndNode"
                                   end-business-process="yes" id="end" op-type="end"
                                   output="excel_xml" point-x="358" point-y="112"
                                   type="flow-node"/>
                    </Flow>
                </Operation>
            </Client>    
        </Service>
    </Services>
</GVServices>


At this point you have configured a service with an excelreader-call operation.


Example

This example shows an XML document generated by a simple Excel sheet (without cols and rows grouping). Given an Excel sheet with the following structure:

ID1 ID2 ID3 ID4 ID5 ID6 ID7
23 23232 23 23333 1 2 3
24 24444 23 23332 1 2 3

excelreader-call generates the following XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<workbook>
    <sheet number="0">
        <name><![CDATA[Foglio1]]></name>
        <row number="0">

With a ChangeGvBufferNode is possible parsing XML and retrieve any tag and value.
