Creating PHP SOAP service from given WSDL

Question

This may come across as a terribly lazy question, but I assure you it is not. I have tried for days to get this working but I just cannot.

I have been given a WSDL file and I need to create a SOAP service for it in PHP. Could any one tell me what the correct way of doing it is?

The receiver of the service is expecting a "User" object to be returned when the getMember method is invoked.

Here is the WSDL

Perhaps you should take a look at the classmap options of the options parameter of the SoapServer constructor...not sure but seems like a good place to look.... – Townsley

Answer 1

Have you tried SoapServer?

$server = new SoapServer('path/to/your.wsdl', $options);

Esquivel

Hi, thanks. Yes I've tried that. This is what I currently have<br /> ` ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0"); // Serve import( "site.amadeus.objects.amadeususer" ); $server = new SoapServer($this->getWsdlUrl()); $server->setClass( "User" ); $server->handle();` <br /> My User object has the getMember() method But all that replies is this:<br /> <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns1="http://tempuri.org/"> <SOAP-ENV:Body> <ns1:getMemberResponse/> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope> – Posticous

No the request was successful but it just returned this <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope" xmlns:ns1="tempuri.org"> <SOAP-ENV:Body> <ns1:getMemberResponse/> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope> I need the response to look something like this <User><id>2</id><email>[email protected]</email>.......</User> – Posticous

Thank you so much for your help. Here it is - class User { public $GuestUserId; public $Username; public $FirstName; public $SurName; public $Email; public function getMember( $uid ) { $applicant = new Applicant( $uid ); $this->GuestUserId = $applicant->getIdentifier(); $this->Username = $applicant->getEmail(); $this->FirstName = $applicant->getFirstName(); $this->SurName = $applicant->getLastName(); $this->Email = $applicant->getEmail(); return $this; } – Posticous

I think you might need to return a SoapParam object: return new SoapParam(array('id' => 2 'email' => ...), 'getMemberResponse'); – Esquivel

Hi, the SoapParam didnt seem to work but this has lead me on to SoapVar which I seem to be getting somewhere with. Thank you so much for your help. – Posticous

Answer 2

At a basic level, you should be able to do the SOAP call with something like this (untested/pseudocode):

$client = new SoapClient("http://somesite/service.wsdl");
$result = $client->getMember();
var_dump($result);

Achaea

Hi thanks for this but I need to create the server not the client. Do you have any ideas? – Posticous

This is how it works for me :

//Instantiate server with relevant wsdl & class. 
$server = new SoapServer( 'mysoapwsdl.wsdl' );
$server->setClass(  'mysoapclass' );
$server->handle();
