This module lets you connect to web services using SOAP, in pure javascript, using node or browser.

This module is forked from node module "tinysoap@1.0.2". Specific changes are:

You don't need jQuery anymore

Features (copied from soap@0.2.6 Readme.md):

Very simple API
Handles both RPC and Document schema types
Supports multiRef SOAP messages (thanks to @kaven276)
Support for both synchronous and asynchronous method handlers
WS-Security (currently only UsernameToken and PasswordText encoding is supported)

Install

Install with npm:

  npm install johniak/browser-soap

Browser

Then embed the file "./browser-soap-min.js"

<script src="browser-soap-min.js"></script>

Then you write code such as:

// in global scope:
this['browser-soap'].createClient("/ACMEWebService?WSDL", function(err, client) {
  if (!err)
    console.log(client);  // all methods are stored in client
});

Or in es6

import soap from 'browser-soap'

soap.createClient("/ACMEWebService?WSDL", function(err, client) {
  if (!err)
    console.log(client);  // all methods are stored in client
});

JSONP is not currently supported, but should be very simple to add...

Module

soap.createClient(url, callback) - create a new SOAP client from a WSDL url

  var soap = require('soap');
  var url = 'http://example.com/wsdl?wsdl';
  var args = {name: 'value'};
  soap.createClient(url, function(err, client) {
      client.MyFunction(args, function(err, result) {
          console.log(result);
      });
  });

Client

An instance of Client is passed to the soap.createClient callback. It is used to execute methods on the soap service.

Client.describe() - description of services, ports and methods as a JavaScript object

  client.describe() // returns
    {
      MyService: {
        MyPort: {
          MyFunction: {
            input: {
              name: 'string'
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }

Client.setSecurity(security) - use the specified security protocol (see WSSecurity below)

  client.setSecurity(new WSSecurity('username', 'password'))

Client.method(args, callback) - call method on the SOAP service.

  client.MyFunction({name: 'value'}, function(err, result) {
      // result is a javascript object
  })

Client.service.port.method(args, callback) - call a method using a specific service and port

  client.MyService.MyPort.MyFunction({name: 'value'}, function(err, result) {
      // result is a javascript object
  })

WSSecurity

WSSecurity implements WS-Security. UsernameToken and PasswordText/PasswordDigest is supported. An instance of WSSecurity is passed to Client.setSecurity.

  new WSSecurity(username, password, passwordType)
    //'PasswordDigest' or 'PasswordText' default is PasswordText
