This software is a simplified version of SOAP technology that does not include unnecessary features, and does not require the use of the Java Remote Method Invocation (JR) framework.
Here's how it works:
- First, you receive a request message.
- Next, you validate the request message.
- Then, you process the request message.
- After that, you create a response message.
- Once you're happy with your response message, you configure it with any necessary settings.
- Finally, you send it back to the requesting party.
Assuming that you're using a Perl script or Apache request handler, you would take the following steps:
- Use the "use SOAPjr" command to import the software into your script.
- Create a SOAPjr server object. You might want to create this in the Apache perl_startup.pl script to keep it persistent.
- Validate the inbound request object for this request. You can do this by passing in a hash reference and %ENV.
- Process the request, whatever it may be.
- Now that you've got your content sorted, create your response object.
- Configure that object with any relevant response values.
- If there are any errors, add them using the $response->add_error() command.
- When you're ready, send back the response object using $response->send(). You can also get a serialized string of the object at any time using $response->output().
Overall, SOAPjr is a straightforward and versatile software that can streamline your SOAP-based interactions. Give it a try if you're looking for a lightweight alternative to traditional SOAP.
