python编写SOAP服务

SOAP简介
[quote]
简单对象访问协议（SOAP，全写为Simple Object Access Protocol）是一种标准化的通讯规范，主要用于Web服务（web service）中。SOAP的出现是为了简化网页服务器（Web Server）在从XML数据库中提取数据时，无需花时间去格式化页面，并能够让不同应用程序之间透过HTTP通讯协定，以XML格式互相交换彼此的数据，使其与编程语言、平台和硬件无关

python的soap包

[quote]
Older libraries:
SOAPy: Was the "best," but no longer maintained. Does not work on Python 2.5+
ZSI: Very painful to use, and development is slow. Has a module called "SOAPpy", which is different than SOAPy (above).

"Newer" libraries:
SUDS: Very Pythonic, and easy to create WSDL-consuming SOAP clients. Creating SOAP servers is a little bit more difficult.
soaplib: Creating servers is easy, creating clients a little bit more challenging.
ladon: Creating servers is much like in soaplib (using a decorator). Ladon exposes more interfaces than SOAP at the same time without extra user code needed.
pysimplesoap: very lightweight but useful for both client and server - includes a web2py server integration that ships with web2py.

用SOAPpy编写的一个简单例子

SOAPpy包:http://pypi.python.org/pypi/SOAPpy/

A simple "Hello World" http SOAP server:

import SOAPpy
def hello():
    return "Hello World"
server = SOAPpy.SOAPServer(("localhost", 8080))
server.registerFunction(hello)
server.serve_forever()

And the corresponding client:

import SOAPpy
server = SOAPpy.SOAPProxy("http://localhost:8080/")
print server.hello()

soaplib编写soap server

选用soaplib,因为看对各包的简介，soaplib对服务器端的编写更加简单

soaplib包: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/soaplib/0.8.1

soaplib 2.0的安装

git clone git://github.com/soaplib/soaplib.git
cd soaplib
python setup.py install

参考：http://soaplib.github.com/soaplib/2_0/

soaplib2.0 和 wsgi webserver 编写的一个简单例子

Declaring a Soaplib Service

import soaplib
from soaplib.core.service import rpc, DefinitionBase
from soaplib.core.model.primitive import String, Integer
from soaplib.core.server import wsgi
from soaplib.core.model.clazz import Array


class HelloWorldService(DefinitionBase):
    @soap(String,Integer,_returns=Array(String))
    def say_hello(self,name,times):
        results = []
        for i in range(0,times):
            results.append('Hello, %s'%name)
        return results

if __name__=='__main__':
    try:
        from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
        soap_application = soaplib.core.Application([HelloWorldService], 'tns')
        wsgi_application = wsgi.Application(soap_application)
        server = make_server('localhost', 7789, wsgi_application)
        server.serve_forever()
    except ImportError:
        print "Error: example server code requires Python >= 2.5"

SOAP Client

>>> from suds.client import Client
>>> hello_client = Client('http://localhost:7789/?wsdl')
>>> result = hello_client.service.say_hello("Dave", 5)
>>> print result

(stringArray){
   string[] =
      "Hello, Dave",
      "Hello, Dave",
      "Hello, Dave",
      "Hello, Dave",
      "Hello, Dave",
 }

soaplib 2.0 的一个bug

在运行上面的小例子时，服务器端报错：

......
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/soaplib-2.0.0_beta2-py2.6.egg/soaplib/core/_base.py", line 331, in parse_xml_string
return _parse_xml_string(xml_string, charset)
NameError: global name 'x' is not defined

修改源码包：/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/soaplib-2.0.0_beta2-py2.6.egg/soaplib/core/_base.py

line 331

...
    def parse_xml_string(self, xml_string, charset=None):
        #return _parse_xml_string(x, charset)
        return _parse_xml_string(xml_string, charset)
...

修改后，例子可以正常运行，这么明显的错误都有，果然是2.0beta版

用rpclib实现soap server

rpclib服务器端接收对象参数

一个简单例子的实现

SERVER

import logging
from rpclib.application import Application
from rpclib.decorator import srpc
from rpclib.interface.wsdl import Wsdl11
from rpclib.protocol.soap import Soap11
from rpclib.service import ServiceBase
from rpclib.model.complex import Iterable
from rpclib.model.primitive import Integer
from rpclib.model.primitive import String
from rpclib.server.wsgi import WsgiApplication
from rpclib.util.simple import wsgi_soap11_application

class HelloWorldService(ServiceBase):
    @srpc(String, Integer, _returns=Iterable(String))
    def say_hello(name, times):
        '''
        Docstrings for service methods appear as documentation in the wsdl
        <b>what fun</b>
        @param name the name to say hello to
        @param the number of times to say hello
        @return the completed array
        '''
        print times

        for i in xrange(times):
            yield u'Hello, %s' % name

if __name__=='__main__':
    try:
        from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
    except ImportError:
        print "Error: example server code requires Python >= 2.5"

    logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
    logging.getLogger('rpclib.protocol.xml').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

    application = Application([HelloWorldService], 'rpclib.examples.hello.soap', interface=Wsdl11(), in_protocol=Soap11(), out_protocol=Soap11())

    server = make_server('192.168.0.31', 7789, WsgiApplication(application))

    print "listening to http://192.168.0.31:7789"
    print "wsdl is at: http://192.168.0.31:7789/?wsdl"

    server.serve_forever()

Client

from suds.client import Client
c = Client('http://192.168.0.31:7789/?wsdl')
a = c.service.say_hello(u'punk', 5)
print a
