This tutorial shows you how to develop SOAP and REST CXF Web Services in Alfresco.

1. CXF to get at /services/ context File : web.xml

  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/services/*</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

2. CXF SOAP Service – Alfresco

  @WebService(targetNamespace = "http://soap.sample.alfresco.org", name = "AlfrescoSearchService")
   public interface AlfrescoSearchService {
    @WebMethod
    public SearchResponse searchAlfrescoRepository(@WebParam(name = "searchString") String searchString) throws java.rmi.RemoteException;
   }

*Note: Configuration file is present in Source Code and Binaries.

3. Access CXF SOAP Service – Alfresco From Chrome Client
http://localhost:8080/alfresco/services/AlfrescoSearchService?wsdl

Request Object



  <Envelope xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">

    <Body>

     <searchAlfrescoRepository xmlns="http://soap.sample.alfresco.org">

      <searchString xmlns="">Alfresco</searchString>

     </searchAlfrescoRepository>

   </Body>

  </Envelope>

Output/Response

  <soap:envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
   <soap:body>
    <ns2:searchalfrescorepositoryresponse xmlns:ns2="http://soap.sample.alfresco.org">
     <return>
      <jsonresult>{"JSONKey":[{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:15 IST 2013","nodename":"alfresco docs.js.sample","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:15 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_it.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_it.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_de.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_de.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_es.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_es.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_fr.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_fr.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_ja.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_ja.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"}]}
      </jsonresult>
     </return>
    </ns2:searchalfrescorepositoryresponse>
   </soap:body>
  </soap:envelope>

4. CXF REST Service – Alfresco
   You will need to add “javax.ws.rs-api-2.0-m02.jar” and WEB-INF lib of your alfresco deployed folder.

  @WebService(serviceName = "AlfrescoRestSearchService", targetNamespace = "http://soap.sample.alfresco.org")
   public class AlfrescoRestSearchServiceImpl {
.................
    @GET
    @Path("/query")
    public Response searchAlfrescoRepository(@QueryParam("searchString") String searchString){
     SearchResponse responseObject = searchObject.searchRepository(searchString);
     return Response.ok(responseObject).build();
    }

   }

*Note: Configuration file is present in Source Code and Binaries.

5. Access CXF REST Service
  Request
http://localhost:8080/alfresco/services/AlfrescoRestSearchService/query?searchString=Alfresco

  Output/Response

  <SearchResponse>
    <jsonResult>
     {"JSONKey":[{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:15 IST 2013","nodename":"alfresco docs.js.sample","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:15 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_it.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_it.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_de.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_de.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_es.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:18 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_es.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_fr.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_fr.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_textplain_alfresco_ja.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"},{"created":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013","nodename":"emailbody_texthtml_alfresco_ja.ftl","modified":"Fri May 03 17:41:19 IST 2013"}]}
