NAME

XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::CGI - CGI based server

INHERITANCE

XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::CGI
  is a XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon

SYNOPSIS

#### have a look in the examples directory!
use XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::CGI;
my $daemon = XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::CGI->new;

# initialize definitions from WSDL
my $wsdl    = XML::Compile::WSDL11->new(...);
$wsdl->importDefinitions(...); # more schemas
$daemon->operationsFromWSDL($wsdl, callbacks => ...);

# per connected client
my $query = CGI->new;
$daemon->runCgiRequest(query => $query);

DESCRIPTION

This module handles the exchange of SOAP messages via Apache, using mod_perl and the popular Perl module CGI. Have a look at the examples/ directory, contained in the XML-Compile-SOAP-Daemon distribution.

This abstraction level of the object (code in this pm file) is not concerned with parsing or composing XML, but only worries about the HTTP transport specifics of SOAP messages.

METHODS

Constructors

XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::CGI->new(OPTIONS)
-Option            --Defined in     --Default
 accept_slow_select  XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon  <true>
 output_charset      XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon  'UTF-8'
 soap_action_input   XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon  {}
 wsa_action_input    XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon  {}
 wsa_action_output   XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon  {}
accept_slow_select => BOOLEAN
output_charset => STRING
soap_action_input => HASH|ARRAY
wsa_action_input => HASH|ARRAY
wsa_action_output => HASH|ARRAY

Attributes

$obj->addSoapAction(HASH|PAIRS)

See "Attributes" in XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon

$obj->addWsaTable(('INPUT'|'OUTPUT'), [HASH|PAIRS])

See "Attributes" in XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon

$obj->outputCharset()

See "Attributes" in XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon

Running the server

$obj->process(OPTIONS)

Process the content of a single message. Not to be called directly.

$obj->run(OPTIONS)

Used by runCgiRequest() to process a connection. Not to be called directly.

$obj->runCgiRequest(OPTIONS)
-Option     --Default
 postprocess  undef
 query        <created internally>
postprocess => CODE

When defined, the CODE will get called with a HASH (containing OPTIONS and other compile information), a HASH of headers (which you may change), the HTTP return code, and a reference to the message body (which may be changed as well).

Be warned that the message body must be considered as bytes, so not as Latin1 or utf-8 string. You may wish to add or remove bytes. The Content-Length will be added to the headers after the call.

query => <CGI object>
