Matching IP address on Bash

I use bash very often, this is a tip on how to match an IPv4 address and address list using bash. It makes use of the Bash's matching operator ~=. Enjoy it!

A WSDL-first asynchronous JAX-WS webservice. Correlating the messages using WS-Addressing and a callback interface

This how to is a WSDL-first (top-down) example of implementing a pure JAX-WS asynchronous web service with the following features:

• the service, named JobProcessor is designed top-down, starting from WSDL and generating the interface and classes
• the service support WS-Addressing for correlating the asynchronous request message with another request message targeted to callback endpoint
• the service convention is document/literal
• the service supports a single asynchronous operation: JobProcessor.processJob()
• the desired message exchange pattern is simple:
• a caller invokes the JobProcessor.processJob() operation in asynchronous manner
• a <wsa:MessageID/>'s WS-Addressing header is supplied in the request
• a callback endpoint is also supplied with the call using WS-Addressing headers, specifically <wsa:ReplyTo/> 
• the service simulates some time-consuming processing (hence the need for asynchronous WS)
• once the processing is finished, the service callbacks the caller issuing  correlation via WS-Addressing headers, that is using <wsa:RelatesTo/> 
• the service also acts like a client when invokes the callback endpoint, so Messages, PortTypes, Bindings, etc.. are also needed

NOTE: the term caller denotes an external entity/user invoking the JobProcessor service, the term client denotes the role of the service when acts like a client

Hands on

I use JDeveloper on this how to, it can be easily done using another IDE.

1. Create an empty generic application and project, named them JobProcessorApp and JobProcessorProj respectively, add only Java and Web Service technologies. Choose a default package name like dev.home.examples.jobprocessor 
2. Create an new folder, named it wsdl. 
3. Create a new XML Schema archive into the wsdl folder, name it jobprocessor.xsd and use a custom namespace like http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types and a significant prefix like jpt 
4. Create a new WSDL Document into the wsdl folder, named it jobprocessor.wsdl, use a custom namespace like: http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor 
5. Edit the WSDL an replace the default namespace prefix from tns to a significant one like jp, and declares the XML Schema namespace using the jpt prefix: xmlns:jpt="http://examples.home.dev/jp/types" 
6. Edit the WSDL an add the namespace WS-Addressing for WSDL: xmlns:wsaw="http://www.w3.org/2006/05/addressing/wsdl" 
7. Include the XSD archive into the schema section of WSDL: definitions/types/xsd:schema/xsd:include, at this point the WSDL should look like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<definitions targetNamespace="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor"
             xmlns:jpt="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types"
             xmlns:jp="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor"
             xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
             xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
             xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
             xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"
             xmlns:mime="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/mime/"
             xmlns:soap12="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap12/"
             xmlns:wsaw="http://www.w3.org/2006/05/addressing/wsdl">
  <types>
    <xsd:schema targetNamespace="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types"
                elementFormDefault="qualified">
      <xsd:include schemaLocation="jobprocessor.xsd"/>
    </xsd:schema>
  </types>
</definitions>

8. Define schema types and elements for message payloads: Job, JobType, JobReply and JobReplyType, the final XSD should look like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
            xmlns:jpt="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types"
            targetNamespace="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types"
            elementFormDefault="qualified">
  <xsd:element name="Job" type="jpt:JobType"/>
  <xsd:complexType name="JobType">
    <xsd:sequence>
      <xsd:element name="jobId" type="xsd:string"/>
      <xsd:element name="payload" type="xsd:string"/>
    </xsd:sequence>
  </xsd:complexType>
  <xsd:element name="JobReply" type="jpt:JobReplyType"/>
  <xsd:complexType name="JobReplyType">
    <xsd:sequence>
      <xsd:element name="jobId" type="xsd:string"/>
      <xsd:element name="result" type="xsd:string"/>
    </xsd:sequence>
  </xsd:complexType>
</xsd:schema>

9. Define WSDL messages: Job and JobReply either with their corresponding element-based parts job and jobReply 
10. Define WSDL port types: JobProcessor for the service interface and JobProcessorNotify for callback interface with their corresponding operations procesJob() and replyFinishedJob(), also specify the corresponding WS-Addressing actions for each input message, at this point the WSDL looks like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<definitions targetNamespace="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor"
             xmlns:jpt="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types"
             xmlns:jp="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor"
             xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
             xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
             xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
             xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"
             xmlns:mime="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/mime/"
             xmlns:soap12="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap12/"
             xmlns:wsaw="http://www.w3.org/2006/05/addressing/wsdl">
  <types>
    <xsd:schema targetNamespace="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types"
                elementFormDefault="qualified">
      <xsd:include schemaLocation="jobprocessor.xsd"/>
    </xsd:schema>
  </types>
  <message name="Job">
    <part name="job" element="jpt:Job"/>
  </message>
  <message name="JobReply">
    <part name="jobReply" element="jpt:JobReply"/>
  </message>
  <portType name="JobProcessor">
    <operation name="processJob">
      <input message="jp:Job" wsaw:Action="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/processJob"/>
    </operation>
  </portType>
  <portType name="JobProcessorNotify">
    <operation name="replyFinishedJob">
      <input message="jp:JobReply" wsaw:Action="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/replyFinishedJob"/>
    </operation>
  </portType>
</definitions>

11. Define document-literal bindings with HTTP transport for each port type JobProcessor and JobProcessorNotify, enforce WS-Addressing using <wsaw:UsingAddressing required="true"/>
12. Define the service JobProcessor and the callback service JobProcessorNotify, the final WSDL should look like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<definitions targetNamespace="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor"
             xmlns:jpt="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types"

             xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
             xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
             xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
             xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"
             xmlns:mime="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/mime/"
             xmlns:soap12="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap12/"
             xmlns:wsaw="http://www.w3.org/2006/05/addressing/wsdl">
  <types>
    <xsd:schema targetNamespace="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types"
                elementFormDefault="qualified">

</definitions>

13. Once finished the WSDL design, start coding. Go to File > New > Java Web Service from WSDL 
14. Choose Java EE 1.5 with support for JAX-WS RI 



15. Choose the jobprocessor.wsdl  archive, ensure that the interface is also generated by marking Add Service Endpoint Interface, also uncheck copy WSDL locally:



16. Choose JobProcessor service
17. Enter dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.ws for the Package Name and dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.types for Root Package for Generated types (SDO types). 



18. Choose jobProcessor port then click Finish
19. You will end with several classes and interfaces generated from the WSDL. But we won't implement the JobProcessorNotify service in Java, so you can delete the JobProcessorNotify.java and JobProcessorNotifyImpl.java   
20. Annotate the JobProcessorImpl class to enforce Addressing with javax.xml.ws.soap.Addressing:

@Addressing(required = true)
public class JobProcessorImpl {
...
}

21. It's necessary to create a Java-based WS client to invoke the caller via the  JobProcessorNotify  PortType. Unfortunately JDeveloper 11.1.1.5.0 cannot do that in pure JAX-WS RI manner. Instead I use JDK's wsimport tool in this way, open a terminal/command prompt and type:  

cd [PROJECT HOME DIRECTORY]
wsimport -p dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.client -d classes/ -s src/ \
  -verbose wsdl/jobprocessor.wsdl 

22. Then delete the unnecessary class dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.client.JobProcessor_Service and the interface dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.client.JobProcessor since we won't call ourselves
23. At this point you will notice that the SDO types JobType and JobReplyType were generated twice, the first time in the dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.types package and the second one on dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.client package,  if you compare them you'll notice they are almost identical except for the package name. So, delete dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.client.JobType and dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.client.JobReply leaving the SDO only on the  dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.types package.
24. Now the magic behind, the correlation is very simple: 1) grab request.MessageID and request.ReplyTo headers from the request message, and 2) set on the reply (a new request) message the reply.RelatesTo = MessageID and reply.To = ReplyTo. To achieve this I create a helper class named CorrelationHelper, it takes a javax.xml.ws.Service subtype as a template parameter, and pass a service of this type as constructor argument, a WebServiceContext is also needed:

/**
 * Performs correlation between incoming one-way message and an outgoing 
 * one-way message by mapping the header wsa:To with wsa:ReplyTo and 
 * wsa:RelatesTo with wsa:MessageID
 *
 * @param <S> the service type
 */
public final class CorrelationHelper<S extends Service> {

    private WebServiceContext wsc;
    private S service;

    public CorrelationHelper(S service, WebServiceContext wsc) {
        this.service = service;
        this.wsc = wsc;
    }

    /**
     * Retrieves the headers
     * @return
     */
    private HeaderList getHeaders() {
        return (HeaderList)wsc.getMessageContext().get(JAXWSProperties.INBOUND_HEADER_LIST_PROPERTY);
    }

    /**
     * Creates the correlated port, by appending a WS-Addressing relatesTo
     * header and assignind the MessageID
     * @param <P> the port type, castable to WSBindingProvider
     * @return the correlated port
     */
    public <P> P getCorrelatedPort(Class<P> portType) {
        P port = service.getPort(getReplyTo(), portType);
        ((WSBindingProvider)port).setOutboundHeaders(Headers.create(AddressingVersion.W3C.relatesToTag,
                                                                    getMessageId()));
        return port;
    }

    /**
     * Grab WS-Addressing ReplyTo/Address header
     * @return
     */
    private EndpointReference getReplyTo() {
        return getHeaders().getReplyTo(AddressingVersion.W3C,
                                       SOAPVersion.SOAP_11).toSpec();
    }

    /**
     * Grab WS-Addressing MessageID header
     * @return
     */
    private String getMessageId() {
        return getHeaders().getMessageID(AddressingVersion.W3C,
                                         SOAPVersion.SOAP_11);
    }
}

25. The processJob() implementation is trivial:

@WebService(serviceName = "JobProcessor",
            targetNamespace = "http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor",
            portName = "jobProcessor",
            endpointInterface = "dev.home.examples.jobprocessor.ws.JobProcessor")
@HandlerChain(file = "JobProcessor-HandlerChain.xml")
@Addressing(required = true)
public class JobProcessorImpl {

    @Resource
    private WebServiceContext wsc;

    private CorrelationHelper<JobProcessorNotify_Service> correlationHelper;
    private Random random;

    public void processJob(JobType job) {
        
        // do processing
        int seconds = doJob();

        // prepare reply message
        JobReplyType jobReply = new JobReplyType();
        jobReply.setJobId(job.getJobId());
        jobReply.setResult(String.format("Job payload %s processed in %d seconds!",
                                         job.getPayload(), seconds));
        
        // do correlation and perform the callback
        JobProcessorNotify jobProcessorNotify =
            correlationHelper.getCorrelatedPort(JobProcessorNotify.class);
        jobProcessorNotify.replyFinishedJob(jobReply);
    }

    /**
     * Sleeps random time between 5 and 10 seconds to simulate processing
     * @return
     */
    private int doJob() {
        int seconds = random.nextInt(6) + 5;
        try {
            Thread.currentThread().sleep(1000 * seconds);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return seconds;
    }

    @PostConstruct
    public void doPostConstruct() {
        correlationHelper =
                new CorrelationHelper<JobProcessorNotify_Service>(new JobProcessorNotify_Service(),
                                                                  wsc);
        random = new Random(System.nanoTime());
    }
}

26. As you noticed, all the magic occurs in the getCorrelatedPort() template method, which takes a generic parameter Class<P> and supplies the wsa:ReplyTo header as the endpoint argument in the javax.xml.ws.Service.getPort() invocation, then relates to the outgoing message with the incoming one via wsa:RelatesTo = wsaMessageID   
27. I also changed some initialization routines in the generated code, specially in JobProcessorNotify_Service to able to load the WSDL from the classpath, notice I changed the wsdlLocation's @WebServiceClient parameter and url assigment statement:

@WebServiceClient(name = "JobProcessorNotify",
                  targetNamespace = "http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor",
                  wsdlLocation = "classpath:wsdl/jobprocessor.wsdl")
public class JobProcessorNotify_Service extends Service {

    private final static URL JOBPROCESSORNOTIFY_WSDL_LOCATION;
    private final static WebServiceException JOBPROCESSORNOTIFY_EXCEPTION;
    private final static QName JOBPROCESSORNOTIFY_QNAME =
        new QName("http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor",
                  "JobProcessorNotify");

    static {
        URL url =
            ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResource("classpath:wsdl/jobprocessor.wsdl");
        WebServiceException e = null;
        JOBPROCESSORNOTIFY_WSDL_LOCATION = url;
        JOBPROCESSORNOTIFY_EXCEPTION = e;
    }
...
}

28. Finally notice that the generic class CorrelationHelper<S extends Service> can be used in any kind of JAX-WS web service (hence the generic) that engages this message exchange pattern.

What's next?

The testing of course:

1. Use soapUI to make your life easier.
2. Deploy the WS to a testing / staging weblogic/tomcat/... server, once deployed you will end up with an arbitrary endpoint address, e.g.: http://HOST/JobProcessor
3. Create a new soapUI project by supplying the WSDL address, it should be http://HOST/JobProcessor?WSDL or simply use  the system path's WSDL
4. Check "Create a Web Service Simulation from the imported WSDL" and uncheck everything else:

5. Generate the Mock service ONLY for replyFinishedJob operation, check Starts MockService immediately. 

6. Name the mock JobProcessorNotify MockService, your mock will end up listening on the address http://YOURPC:8080/mockJobProcessNotify
7. Go to JobProcessor / processJob,  create a new request and fill it:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" 
  xmlns:typ="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types">
   <soapenv:Header/>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <typ:Job>
         <typ:jobId>1</typ:jobId>
         <typ:payload>Euardo Lago Aguilar</typ:payload>
      </typ:Job>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

8. In the request window's bottom, open WS-Addressing related settings, check Enable/Disable WS-A Addressing
9. The Action should be already filled up with: http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/processJob
10. Set To equal to: http://HOST/JobProcessor and also set the endpoint address (above) to the same value
11. Set ReplyTo equal to your mock listening address:  http://YOURPC:8088/mockJobProcessorNotify
12. Check Randomly generate MessageId, at the end the request should look like:

13. Send the request and you should receive a reply message within 5 and 10 seconds later, see the mock log in the picture below:




open the log entry by double clicking, the content should be:

<S:Envelope xmlns:S="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
   <S:Header>
      <wsa:RelatesTo xmlns:wsa="http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing">uuid:732cf156-6de4-4701-9ae8-1aaa1c7a3bd9</wsa:RelatesTo>
      <wsa:To xmlns:wsa="http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing">http://YOURPC:8088/mockJobProcessorNotify</wsa:To>
      <wsa:Action xmlns:wsa="http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing">http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/replyFinishedJob</wsa:Action>
      <work:WorkContext xmlns:work="http://oracle.com/weblogic/soap/workarea/">rO0ABXoAA...AAAA=</work:WorkContext>
   </S:Header>
   <S:Body>
      <JobReply xmlns="http://examples.home.dev/jobprocessor/types">
         <jobId>1</jobId>
         <result>Job payload Euardo Lago Aguilar processed in 8 seconds!</result>
      </JobReply>
   </S:Body>
</S:Envelope>
