Sample 353: Using Ruby Scripts for Mediation

Note that WSO2 EI is shipped with the following changes to what is mentioned in this documentation:

<PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/samples/ directory that includes all Integration profile samples is changed to <EI_HOME>/samples/service-bus/.
<PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/samples/resources/ directory that includes all artifacts related to the Integration profile samples is changed to <EI_HOME>/samples/service-bus/resources/.

Objective: Script mediators using Ruby

Prerequisites:

This sample uses Ruby so first set up Ruby support as described in Configuring the ESB for Script Mediator Support .

Start the Synapse configuration numbered 353: i.e. wso2ei-samples -sn 353
Start the Axis2 server and deploy the SimpleStockQuoteService if not already done

This sample is functionally equivalent to sample # 350 (#351 and #8) but instead uses a Ruby script using the JRuby interpreter. The script has two functions, 'transformRequest' and 'transformResponse', and the Synapse configuration specifies to be invoked when used. Execute the stock quote client to send a custom stock quote as per Sample 350 and check the received stock quote response.
