NAME
XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::NetServer - SOAP server based on Net::Server
INHERITANCE
XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::NetServer
is a XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon
SYNOPSIS
#### have a look in the examples directory!
use XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::NetServer;
use XML::Compile::SOAP11;
use XML::Compile::SOAP::WSA; # optional
# Be warned that the daemon will be Net::Server based, which
# consumes command-line arguments! "local @ARGV;" maybe useful
my $daemon = XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::NetServer->new;
# daemon definitions from WSDL
my $wsdl = XML::Compile::WSDL11->new(...);
$wsdl->importDefinitions(...); # more schemas
$daemon->operationsFromWSDL($wsdl, callbacks => ...);
# daemon definitions added manually (when no WSDL)
my $soap11 = XML::Compile::SOAP11::Server->new(schemas => $wsdl->schemas);
my $handler = $soap11->compileHandler(...);
$daemon->addHandler('getInfo', $soap11, $handler);
# see what is defined:
$daemon->printIndex;
# finally, run the server. This never returns.
$daemon->run(@daemon_options);
DESCRIPTION
This module handles the exchange of SOAP messages over HTTP with Net::Server as daemon implementation, It uses HTTP::Request and HTTP::Response object provided by LWP, via functions provided by XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::LWPutil.
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. The processing of the SOAP message is handled by the XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon base-class.
The server is as flexible as possible: accept M-POST (HTTP Extension Framework) and POST (standard HTTP) for any message. It can be used for any SOAP1.1 and SOAP1.2 mixture. Although SOAP1.2 itself is not implemented yet.
See documentation in the base class.
METHODS
See documentation in the base class.
Constructors
See documentation in the base class.
- XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::NetServer->new(OPTIONS)
-
Create the server handler, which extends some class which implements a Net::Server daemon. Any daemon configuration parameter should be passed with run(). This is a little tricky. Read below in the "Configuration options" section.
-Option --Defined in --Default accept_slow_select XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon <true> based_on Net::Server::PreFork 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
- based_on => any Net::Server OBJECT|CLASS
-
You may pass your own Net::Server compatible daemon, if you feel a need to initialize it or prefer an other one. Preferrably, pass configuration settings to run(). You may also specify any Net::Server compatible CLASS name.
- output_charset => STRING
- soap_action_input => HASH|ARRAY
- wsa_action_input => HASH|ARRAY
- wsa_action_output => HASH|ARRAY
Attributes
See documentation in the base class.
- $obj->addSoapAction(HASH|PAIRS)
- $obj->addWsaTable(('INPUT'|'OUTPUT'), [HASH|PAIRS])
- $obj->outputCharset()
Running the server
See documentation in the base class.
- $obj->process(CLIENT, XMLIN, REQUEST, ACTION)
- $obj->run(OPTIONS)
-
See Net::Server subroutine run, but the OPTIONS are passed as list, not as HASH. You may pass any option to which accepted by the Net::Server extension you are using.
-Option --Default postprocess undef
- postprocess => CODE
-
See the section about this option in the DETAILS chapter of the XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::LWPutil manual-page.
Preparations
See documentation in the base class.
- $obj->addHandler(NAME, SOAP, CODE)
- $obj->operationsFromWSDL(WSDL, OPTIONS)
- $obj->setWsdlResponse(FILENAME, [FILETYPE])
Helpers
See documentation in the base class.
- $obj->faultInvalidXML(ERROR)
- $obj->faultNotSoapMessage(NODETYPE)
- $obj->faultUnsupportedSoapVersion(ENV_NS)
- $obj->handlers(('SOAP11'|'SOAP12'|SOAP))
- $obj->printIndex([FILEHANDLE])
- $obj->soapVersions()

Configuration options
This module will wrap any kind of Net::Server, for instance a Net::Server::PreFork. It depends on the type of Net::Server
you specify (see new(based_on)) which configuration options are available on the command-line, in a configuration file, or with run(). Each daemon extension implementation will add some configuration options as well.
Any XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon::NetServer
object will have the following additional configuration options:
Key Value Default
client_timeout integer seconds 30
client_maxreq integer 100
client_reqbonus integer seconds 0
name string "soap daemon"
Some general configuration options of Net::Server have a different default. See also the next section about logging.
Key Value New default
setsid boolean true
background boolean true
For each client, we like to have a reset of the connection after some time, for two reasons: perl processes are usually leaking memory a bit so should not live for ever, and you can experience denial of service attacks. The client_timeout
value details the number of seconds a connection may live, but that will be increase by client_reqbonus
for every received message. In any case, after client_maxreq
messages were handled, the connection will be terminated.
The name
is included in the reply messages.
logging
An attempt is made to merge XML::Compile's Log::Report and Net::Server log configuration. By hijacking the log()
method, all Net::Server internal errors are dispatched over the Log::Report framework. Log levels are translated into report reasons: 0=ERROR, 1=WARNING, 2=NOTICE, 3=INFO, 4=TRACE.
When you specify Sys::Syslog
or a filename, default dispatchers of type SYSLOG resp FILE are created for you. When the log_file
type is set to Log::Report
, you have much more control over the process, but all log related configuration options will get ignored. In that case, you must have initialized the dispatcher framework the way Log::Report is doing it: before the daemon is initiated. See Log::Report subroutine dispatcher.
Key Value Default
log_file filename|Sys::Syslog|Log::Report Log::Report
log_level 0..4 | REASON 2 (NOTICE)
