ODL handler configuration through WLST script - Oracle SOA Suite

ODL handler configuration through WLST script - Oracle SOA Suite:

Oracle Fusion Middleware components write diagnostic log files in the Oracle Diagnostic Logging (ODL) format. Log file naming and the format of the contents of log files conforms to an Oracle standard. By default, the diagnostic messages are written in text format.

ODL provides the following benefits:

The capability to limit the total amount of diagnostic information saved. You can set the level of information saved and you can specify the maximum size of the log file and the log file directory.

When you reach the specified size, older segment files are removed and newer segment files are saved in chronological fashion.

Components can remain active, and do not need to be shutdown, when older diagnostic logging files are deleted.

The ODL configuration can be changed from EM console or WLST script.

Below is the WLST script help us to change the ODL handler setting.

Configureodlloghandlers.py

folderPath="/oracle/product/soa/11g/fmw/fmwlogs/SOACoreDomain"
domainAdminUserName = "weblogic"
domainAdminPassword = "welcome1"
connect(domainAdminUserName, domainAdminPassword, "t3://localhost:7001")
servers = adminHome.getMBeansByType('Server')
for s in servers:
edit()
startEdit()
serverName1 = s.getName()
path = '/Servers/' + serverName1
cd(path)
lh = listLogHandlers()
for l in lh:
lname = l.get('name')
odlfile = folderPath + '/logs/' + serverName1 + '/' + serverName1 + '-' + lname + '-diagnostic.log'
print 'Diagnostic path===>',odlfile
configureLogHandler(target=serverName1,name=lname, path=odlfile)
save()
activate()

The other details like maxFileSize,rotationFrequency and retentionPeriod  etc can also be changed through configureLogHandler method.

Executing the script:

Polling the Message from WebSphere MQ using MQ Transport in OSB

Polling the Message from WebSphere MQ using MQ Transport in OSB

OSB MQ transport help us to post/receive message from the WebSphere MQ. The MQ transport can be configured to poll the queue for the new messages.


This blog explains how to configure the OSB Proxy Service to poll the Queue for new messages.

Steps to configure the OSB Proxy Service to poll the Queue for new messages

Create a OSB Project and Create a Resource of  type MQ Connection.


Provide the MQ Connection details like host name,port number,Queue Manager Name, Channel Name and also provide Connection Pool Size, Connection Timeout and Connection Max Wait. Provide the Static Service Account if User Name/Password is required to connect to MQ and leave the Connection type as default value(tcp mode). Save the connection details.

Remote Java Client to Post the Message to IBM MQ

Remote Java Client to Post the Message to IBM MQ

The below java code will help us to post the message to remote IBM MQ.

package mqclient;
import com.ibm.mq.jms.*;
import javax.jms.*;

public class MQJavaClient {
 
    public static void main(String[] args)
     {
      try {
       MQQueueConnectionFactory cf = new MQQueueConnectionFactory();
       cf.setHostName("10.130.134.178");        
       cf.setPort(2022);    
       cf.setTransportType(JMSC.MQJMS_TP_CLIENT_MQ_TCPIP);  
       cf.setQueueManager("EAI1");
       cf.setChannel("T_CRM_FUSION_CLIENT");
       
       MQQueueConnection connection = (MQQueueConnection) cf.createQueueConnection();
       MQQueueSession session = (MQQueueSession) connection.createQueueSession(false, Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
       MQQueue queue = (MQQueue) session.createQueue("queue:///DUMMY_Q?targetClient=1");    
       MQQueueSender sender =  (MQQueueSender) session.createSender(queue);
     
     
      String message="<ns1:EmployeeRequest xmlns:ns1=\"http://xmlns.oracle.com/JEJBSample/EmployeeDetailService/EmployeeDetailService\">\n" +
      "<ns1:empNo>987654</ns1:empNo>\n" +
      "</ns1:EmployeeRequest>";
     
       TextMessage textMessage = (TextMessage) session.createTextMessage(message);  
       connection.start();
       sender.send(textMessage);    
     
       sender.close();
       session.close();
       connection.close();
   
      }catch (Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();

Initiating an OSB Service with Email

Initiating an OSB Service with Email

Email transport will help us to send/receive emails in OSB. Some cases we may required to initiate the external service based on the email in the user inbox.


The Proxy service polls the Mail Inbox for the new messages and invokes the Business service whenever there is a new message in the Inbox.The polling interval can be specified in the Proxy Service configuration.Here i will explain about invoking the service with the XML message received from the email body.

Invoking the service with the XML message received from the email body

Create a XSD message structure that will be used by Proxy Service to receive the message

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified"
elementFormDefault="qualified"
targetNamespace="http://xmlns.oracle.com/JEJBSample/EmployeeDetailService/EmployeeDetailService"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<element name="EmployeeRequest">
<complexType>
<sequence>
<element name="empNo" type="string"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
</element>
</schema>

Create a OSB project and create a Business service that needs to be invoked based on the Email content - Here i am invoking a sample BPEL service with the same XSD structure as input.

Create a Service Account with Static username/password of email user.

Exposing a OSB Proxy Service as EJB through JEJB transport

Exposing a OSB Proxy Service as EJB through JEJB transport

The JEJB transport lets you pass Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs) through Oracle Service Bus.To a J2EE client, a JEJB proxy service looks like a stateless session bean. A JEJB proxy service, on receiving the method arguments, passes their XML representation in the pipeline $body variable. POJO arguments are represented as the XML fragment. This XML fragment contains the location of the actual POJO stored in the object repository within the pipeline.

For deployment, Oracle Service Bus automatically packages JEJB proxy services as enterprise archives (EARs) and deploys to weblogic server(OSB Server).


JEJB transport uses the Java Interface to expose as EJB.

Here i will explain exposing the proxy service as EJB and invoking the same through java client by passing/receiving  the java objects and invoking the business service by passing/receiving the XML(Java utility methods will be used to convert Java to XML and XML to Java).The BPEL service invoked will receive the empno and and return back the employee details.

Steps to expose the proxy service as EJB

Create a Java interface that will receive/return the Employee object .

package jejbsample;
public interface EmployeeDetails {
 
    Employee getEmployeeDetails(Employee emp);
}

package jejbsample;
import java.io.Serializable;
public class Employee implements Serializable{
    private String empName;
    private String empNo;
    private String empDept;
    private String empLoc;  
    
    public Employee() {
        super();
    }

    public void setEmpName(String empName) {
        this.empName = empName;
    }
    public String getEmpName() {
        return empName;
    }
    public void setEmpNo(String empNo) {
        this.empNo = empNo;
    }
    public String getEmpNo() {
        return empNo;
    }
    public void setEmpDept(String empDept) {
        this.empDept = empDept;
    }
    public String getEmpDept() {
        return empDept;
    }
    public void setEmpLoc(String empLoc) {
        this.empLoc = empLoc;
    }
    public String getEmpLoc() {
        return empLoc;
    }
}

Create a Utility class that will convert the Java to XML and XML to Java.

package javaxmlconverter;
import java.io.InputStream;
import javax.xml.parsers.*;
import jejbsample.Employee;
import org.apache.xmlbeans.*;
import org.w3c.dom.*;

public class JavaXMLConverter {
    public JavaXMLConverter() {
        super();
    }
    public static String getEmpRequestXML(Employee emp) {       
        return emp.getEmpNo();
    }
    public static Employee getEmpResponseJava(XmlObject xml) throws Exception{
            Employee emp = new Employee();        
            DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
            InputStream inputStream = xml.newInputStream();
            DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
            Document doc = db.parse(inputStream);           
            String empName=null ;
            String empNo=null;
            String empDept=null;
            String empLoc=null;            
            
            NodeList nList = doc.getElementsByTagName("EmployeeResponse");
            for (int temp = 0; temp < nList.getLength(); temp++) {
                Node nNode = nList.item(temp);
                if (nNode.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) {
                    Element eElement = (Element)nNode;
                     empName =eElement.getElementsByTagName("empName").item(0).getTextContent();
                     empNo =eElement.getElementsByTagName("empNo").item(0).getTextContent();
                     empDept =eElement.getElementsByTagName("empDept").item(0).getTextContent();
                     empLoc =eElement.getElementsByTagName("empLoc").item(0).getTextContent();
                   
                }
            }
        emp.setEmpDept(empDept);
        emp.setEmpName(empName);
        emp.setEmpLoc(empLoc);
        emp.setEmpNo(empNo);
        
        return emp;
        }
    }
