NAME

XML::CompileX::Schema::Loader - Load a web service and its dependencies for XML::Compile::WSDL11

VERSION

version 0.006

SYNOPSIS

    use XML::Compile::WSDL11;
    use XML::Compile::SOAP11;
    use XML::Compile::Transport::SOAPHTTP;
    use XML::CompileX::Schema::Loader;

    my $wsdl   = XML::Compile::WSDL11->new;
    my $loader = XML::CompileX::Schema::Loader->new(
        wsdl => $wsdl,
        uris => 'http://example.com/foo.wsdl',
    );
    $loader->collect_imports;
    $wsdl->compileCalls;
    my ( $answer, $trace ) = $wsdl->call( hello => {name => 'Joe'} );

DESCRIPTION

From the description of XML::Compile::WSDL11:

    When the [WSDL] definitions are spread over multiple files you will need to use addWSDL() (wsdl) or importDefinitions() (additional schema's) explicitly. Usually, interreferences between those files are broken. Often they reference over networks (you should never trust). So, on purpose you must explicitly load the files you need from local disk! (of course, it is simple to find one-liners as work-arounds, but I will to tell you how!)

This module implements that work-around, recursively parsing and compiling a WSDL specification and any imported definitions and schemas. The wrapped WSDL is available as a wsdl attribute.

You may also provide your own LWP::UserAgent (sub)class instance, possibly to correct on-the-fly any broken interreferences between files as warned above. You can also provide a caching layer, as with WWW::Mechanize::Cached which is a sub-class of WWW::Mechanize and LWP::UserAgent.

Please see the distribution's eg directory for sample scripts that use this module to save schemas from a URL to the filesystem and then reload them again.

ATTRIBUTES

wsdl

An XML::Compile::WSDL11 instance. If you do not set this, a generic instance will be created with the XML from the URIs in uris added. If there are problems retrieving any files, an HTTP::Exception is thrown with the details.

uris

Required string or URI object, or a reference to an array of the same, that points to WSDL file(s) to compile.

user_agent

Optional instance of an LWP::UserAgent that will be used to get all WSDL and XSD content.

METHODS

collect_imports

Loops through all uris, adding them as WSDL documents to wsdl and then importing all definitions, schemas, included and imported definition and schema locations. You should call this before calling any of the compilers in XML::Compile::WSDL11 to ensure that any dependencies have been imported.
