send XML Document over SOAP

This requires "document driver" and "document stub" (soap4r/lib/soap/doc; not yet exists).

Hi,

I've been trying to get to grips with a SOAP based webservice using
soap4r and have come up against a wall; wsdl2ruby unfortunately
doesn't support xsd:ID which, of course, is being used in the
webservice I'm trying to consume and thus I can't use soap4r. So my
question is: can I simply send a raw XML query to the service? I only
want to do really simple stuff with it.

Here's an example of what I mean (in PHP):
 http://www.searchnbn.net/library/webservices/wsGridMapPHP.jsp

(That's the webservice I'm trying to work with, btw)

Many thanks in advance for any help on this. I guess I'll have to go
back to PHP on this task if I can't make any headway.

Hi,

I'm working on writing some code to update a Microsoft Sharepoint site.
 I am having problems with the last piece.  This code calls an
UpdateListItems function with a Batch structure (below) which is
basically a list of updates.  The call takes the list that you are
trying to update and the Batch XML as parameters.

I am having problems passing the XML.  I get "Cannot map Object to
SOAP/OM. (SOAP::Mapping::MappingError)" when I try to run the code.  I
suspect I have to package the Batch XML for SOAP.

Any suggestions or a pointer in the right direction?  Thanks,

CODE:


driver =
SOAP::RPC::Driver.new("https://www.mydomain.com/sites/test/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx","http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/")

driver.default_encodingstyle =
SOAP::EncodingStyle::ASPDotNetHandler::Namespace
driver.options['protocol.http.ssl_config.verify_mode'] = nil
driver.options["protocol.http.basic_auth"] <<
['https://www.mydomain.com/sites/test/_vti_bin/', "User Name",
"Password"]

driver.add_method_with_soapaction("UpdateListItems",
"http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/UpdateListItems",
"listName", "updates")

driver.wiredump_dev = STDOUT
driver.wiredump_file_base = "log"

batch = <<EOF
<Batch OnError="Continue" ListVersion="1"
ViewName="06CD8A4F-0A1A-4EF7-8D5A-7C64BF7055F4">
   <Method ID="1" Cmd="New">
      <Field Name="ID">New</Field>
      <Field Name="Title">Test 1</Field>
   </Method>
</Batch>
EOF

xml = Document.new(batch)

arg1 = "Reports"
arg2 = xml

driver.UpdateListItems(arg1, arg2)

I am looking at ways to generate the following request using SOAP in
Ruby. I am not able to get the desired XML created. Is there a way to
completely put the body of the SOAP Request in an XML file and then
provide the XML file as the input for the SOAP Request in Ruby ? ANy
help or alternative means would be appreciated.

Thanks
Chetan
