WSDL Accessor - Zend_Soap
Note: Zend_Soap_Wsdl class is used by Zend_Soap_Server component internally to operate with WSDL documents. Nevertheless, you could also use functionality provided by this class for your own needs. The Zend_Soap_Wsdl package contains both a parser and a builder of WSDL documents.
If you don't plan to do this, you can skip this documentation section.
Zend_Soap_Wsdl constructor takes three parameters:
addMessage($name, $parts) method adds new message description to the WSDL document (/definitions/message element).
Each message correspond to methods in terms of Zend_Soap_Server and Zend_Soap_Client functionality.
$name parameter represents message name.
$parts parameter is an array of message parts which describe SOAP call parameters. It's an associative array: 'part name' (SOAP call parameter name) => 'part type'.
Type mapping management is performed using addTypes(), addTypes() and addComplexType() methods (see below).
Note: Messages parts can use either 'element' or 'type' attribute for typing (see http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_messages).
'element' attribute must refer to a corresponding element of data type definition. 'type' attribute refers to a corresponding complexType entry.
All standard XSD types have both 'element' and 'complexType' definitions (see http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/).
All non-standard types, which may be added using Zend_Soap_Wsdl::addComplexType() method, are described using 'complexType' node of '/definitions/types/schema/' section of WSDL document.
So addMessage() method always uses 'type' attribute to describe types.
addPortType($name) method adds new port type to the WSDL document (/definitions/portType) with the specified port type name.
It joins a set of Web Service methods defined in terms of Zend_Soap_Server implementation.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_porttypes for the details.
addPortOperation($portType, $name, $input = false, $output = false, $fault = false) method adds new port operation to the specified port type of the WSDL document (/definitions/portType/operation).
Each port operation corresponds to a class method (if Web Service is based on a class) or function (if Web Service is based on a set of methods) in terms of Zend_Soap_Server implementation.
It also adds corresponding port operation messages depending on specified $input, $output and $fault parameters.
Note: Zend_Soap_Server component generates two messages for each port operation while describing service based on Zend_Soap_Server class:
input message with name
$methodName . 'Request'.output message with name
$methodName . 'Response'.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_request-response for the details.
addBinding($name, $portType) method adds new binding to the WSDL document (/definitions/binding).
'binding' WSDL document node defines message format and protocol details for operations and messages defined by a particular portType (see http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_bindings).
The method creates binding node and returns it. Then it may be used to fill with actual data.
Zend_Soap_Server implementation uses
$serviceName . 'Binding' name for 'binding' element of WSDL document.
addBindingOperation($binding, $name, $input = false, $output = false, $fault = false) method adds an operation to a binding element (/definitions/binding/operation) with the specified name.
It takes XML_Tree_Node object returned by
addBinding() as an input ($binding
parameter) to add 'operation' element with input/output/false entries depending on
specified parameters
Zend_Soap_Server implementation adds corresponding binding entry for each Web Service method with input and output entries defining 'soap:body' element as '<soap:body use="encoded" encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"/>
See http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_bindings for the details.
addSoapBinding($binding, $style = 'document', $transport = 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http') method adds SOAP binding ('soap:binding') entry to the binding element (which is already linked to some port type) with the specified style and transport (Zend_Soap_Server implementation uses RPC style over HTTP).
'/definitions/binding/soap:binding' element is used to signify that the binding is bound to the SOAP protocol format.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_bindings for the details.
addSoapOperation($binding, $soap_action) method adds SOAP operation ('soap:operation') entry to the binding element with the specified action. 'style' attribute of the 'soap:operation' element is not used since programming model (RPC-oriented or document-oriented) may be using addSoapBinding() method
'soapAction' attribute of '/definitions/binding/soap:operation' element specifies the value of the SOAPAction header for this operation. This attribute is required for SOAP over HTTP and must not be specified for other transports.
Zend_Soap_Server implementation uses
$serviceUri . '#' . $methodName for SOAP operation
action name.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_soap:operation for the details.
addService($name, $port_name, $binding, $location) method adds '/definitions/service' element to the WSDL document with the specified Wed Service name, port name, binding, and location.
WSDL 1.1 allows to have several port types (sets of operations) per service. This ability is not used by Zend_Soap_Server implementation and not supported by Zend_Soap_Wsdl class.
Zend_Soap_Server implementation uses:
$name . 'Service' as a Web Service name,
$name . 'Port' as a port type name,
'tns:' . $name . 'Binding'
[1]
'tns:' namespaceURI'http://' .$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']
. $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']
as binding name,
script URI
[2]
'http://' .$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] .
$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']
as a service URI for Web Service definition using classes.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_services for the details.
Zend_Soap WSDL accessor implementation uses the following type mapping between PHP and SOAP types:
PHP strings <-> xsd:string.
PHP integers <-> xsd:int.
PHP floats and doubles <-> xsd:float.
PHP booleans <-> xsd:boolean.
PHP arrays <-> soap-enc:Array.
PHP object <-> xsd:struct.
PHP class <-> based on complex type strategy (See: this section) [3] Zend_Soap_WsdlZend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_DefaultComplexTypeZend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_Interface$extractComplexTypeZend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_DefaultComplexType Zend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_AnyType .
PHP void <-> empty type.
If type is not matched to any of these types by some reason, then
xsd:anyType is used.
xsd: is "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" namespace,
soap-enc: is a "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" namespace,
tns: is a "target namespace" for a service.
getType($type) method may be used to get mapping for a specified PHP type:
addComplexType($type) method is used to add complex types (PHP classes) to a WSDL document.
It's automatically used by getType() method to add corresponding complex types of method parameters or return types.
Its detection and building algorithm is based on the currently active detection strategy for complex types. You can set the detection strategy either by specifying the class name as string or instance of a Zend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_Interface implementation as the third parameter of the constructor or using the setComplexTypeStrategy($strategy) function of Zend_Soap_Wsdl. The following detection strategies currently exist:
Class Zend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_DefaultComplexType: Enabled by default (when no third constructor parameter is set). Iterates over the public attributes of a class type and registers them as subtypes of the complex object type.
Class Zend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_AnyType: Casts all complex types into the simple XSD type xsd:anyType. Be careful this shortcut for complex type detection can probably only be handled successfully by weakly typed languages such as PHP.
Class Zend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_ArrayOfTypeSequence:
This strategy allows to specify return parameters of the type:
int[] or string[]. As of Zend Framework version
1.9 it can handle both simple PHP types such as int,
string, boolean, float aswell as objects and arrays of objects.
Class Zend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_ArrayOfTypeComplex: This strategy allows to detect very complex arrays of objects. Objects types are detected based on the Zend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_DefaultComplexType and an array is wrapped around that definition.
Class Zend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_Composite: This strategy can combine all strategies by connecting PHP Complex types (Classnames) to the desired strategy via the connectTypeToStrategy($type, $strategy) method. A complete typemap can be given to the constructor as an array with $type -> $strategy pairs. The second parameter specifies the default strategy that will be used if an unknown type is requested for adding. This parameter defaults to the Zend_Soap_Wsdl_Strategy_DefaultComplexType strategy.
addComplexType() method creates '/definitions/types/xsd:schema/xsd:complexType' element for each described complex type with name of the specified PHP class.
Class property MUST have docblock section with the described PHP type to have property included into WSDL description.
addComplexType() checks if type is already described within types section of the WSDL document.
It prevents duplications if this method is called two or more times and recursion in the types definition section.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_types for the details.
addDocumentation($input_node, $documentation) method adds human readable documentation using optional 'wsdl:document' element.
'/definitions/binding/soap:binding' element is used to signify that the binding is bound to the SOAP protocol format.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_documentation for the details.
toXML(), toDomDocument() and dump($filename = false) methods may be used to get WSDL document as an XML, DOM structure or a file.
