SoapReader

This library allows to consume SOAP in XML format

Installation

npm install soap-reader

Steps

• Create Tag: If it is needed to send parameter(s), those should be send wrapped in its TAG name

  For Example : <'intA'>4<'/intA'>

  How to do it?

  import { SoapInputTag } from 'soap-reader';

  let tagData: Array = [];

  tagData.push(new SoapInputTag('intA', '4'));

  Result: An List of array

  [ {title:'intA',value:4}]

• Create Headers: Set up headers in order to get the response as a TEXT.

  IMPORTANT! -> This in an optional step so feel free to set up your header accordings your needs.

  How to do it?

  const httpOptions = this.soapReader.createHeaders();

  Headers:

  const httpOptions = {
      headers: new HttpHeaders({
        'Content-Type': 'application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8',
        'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*',
        'Access-Control-Allow-Methods': 'GET,POST,PATCH,DELETE,PUT,OPTIONS',
        'Access-Control-Allow-Headers': 'Origin, Content-Type, X-Auth-Token, content-type',
      }),
      responseType: 'text' as 'json'
    };

• Create Template: create SOAP's TEMPLATE.

  How to do it?

  @function createTemplate

  @description function to create SOAP's TEMPLATE.

  @param methodName {string} SOAP method's name.

  @param inputTagData {Array[SoapInputTag]} one or more SOAP's tags and its values.

  @returns {string} SOAP's TEMPLATE

  let soapMethodName = "Add";
  
  let inputTagsData: Array<SoapInputTag> = [];
  
  inputTagsData.push(new SoapInputTag('intA', 4));
  inputTagsData.push(new SoapInputTag('intB', 3));
  
  let soapString = this.soapReader.createTemplate(this.soapMethodName, inputTagsData);

  Result

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <soap12:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap12="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
    <soap12:Body>
    <Add xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">
    <intA>4</intA>
    <intB>3</intB>
    </Add>
    </soap12:Body>
    </soap12:Envelope>

Usage

export class CalculatorService {

  private apiURL = 'www.dneonline.com/calculator.asmx?op=';
  private soapMethodNameAdd = "Add";
  private soapMethodNameAddResult = "AddResult";

    constructor(private soapReader: SoapReaderService,
    private http: HttpClient) { }

  add(numberA: number, numberB: number): Observable<any> {

    let apiURL = 'https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/' + this.apiURL + this.soapMethodNameAdd;

    let inputTagsData: Array<SoapInputTag> = [];

    inputTagsData.push(new SoapInputTag('intA', numberA));
    inputTagsData.push(new SoapInputTag('intB', numberB));

    const httpOptions = this.soapReader.createHeaders();

    let soapString = this.soapReader.createTemplate(this.soapMethodNameAdd, inputTagsData);

    return this.http.post(apiURL, soapString, httpOptions).pipe(map(response => {
      // get data in Array from a specific tag
      return this.soapReader.getSingleStringResult(response.toString(), this.soapMethodNameAddResult);

    }));

  }

}
