Sample 903: HTTPS Inbound Endpoint Sample

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/.

Introduction

This sample demonstrates how an HTTPS inbound endpoint can act as a dynamic https listener. Many https listeners can be added without restarting the server. When a message arrives at a port it will bypass the inbound side axis2 layer and will be sent directly to the sequence for mediation.The response also behaves in the same way.

Prerequisites

For a list of prerequisites, see Prerequisites to Start the ESB Samples.

Building the sample

The XML configuration for this sample is as follows:

<definitions xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse">
    <inboundEndpoint name="HttpsListenerEP"
                     protocol="https"
                     suspend="false" sequence="TestIn" onError="fault" >
        <p:parameters xmlns:p="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse">
            <p:parameter  name="inbound.http.port">8081</p:parameter>
            <p:parameter name="keystore">
                <KeyStore>
                    <Location>repository/resources/security/wso2carbon.jks</Location>
                    <Type>JKS</Type>
                    <Password>wso2carbon</Password>
                    <KeyPassword>wso2carbon</KeyPassword>
                </KeyStore>
            </p:parameter>
            <p:parameter name="truststore">
                <TrustStore>
                    <Location>repository/resources/security/client-truststore.jks</Location>
                    <Type>JKS</Type>
                    <Password>wso2carbon</Password>
                </TrustStore>
            </p:parameter>
        </p:parameters>
    </inboundEndpoint>
    <sequence xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse" name="TestIn">
        <send receive="reciveSeq">
            <endpoint>
                <address uri="http://localhost:9000/services/SimpleStockQuoteService"/>
            </endpoint>
        </send>
    </sequence>
    <sequence xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse" name="reciveSeq">
        <send/>
    </sequence>
</definitions>

This configuration file synapse_sample_903.xml is available in the <ESB_HOME>/repository/samples directory.

To build the sample

Start the ESB with the sample 902 configuration. For instructions on starting a sample ESB configuration, see Starting the ESB with a sample configuration.
The operation log keeps running until the server starts, which usually takes several seconds. Wait until the server has fully booted up and displays a message similar to "WSO2 Carbon started in n seconds."
Start the Axis2 server. For instructions on starting the Axis2 server, see Starting the Axis2 server.
Deploy the back-end service SimpleStockQuoteService. For instructions on deploying sample back-end services, see Deploying sample back-end services.

Executing the sample

The sample client used here is the Stock Quote Client, which can operate in several modes. For further details on this sample client and its operation modes, see Stock Quote Client.

To execute the sample client

Run the following command from the <ESB_HOME>/samples/axis2Client directory, to execute the Stock Quote Client in the Dumb Client Mode.
```
ant stockquote -Dtrpurl=https://localhost:8081/
```

Analyzing the output

Analyze the output debug messages for the actions in the Dumb Client Mode.

You will see the ESB receiving a message for which the ESB Inbound is set as the ultimate receiver. You will also see the response from the back end in the Client.
