How to call webservice in WSO2 proxy - wso2

Question

how I can call web service inside of proxy? Proxy itself works fine, and I added call of logging web service in "in" sequence. I create call using payload factory + send.
Problem is, that proxy now returns result of this logging web service instead of
what web service should return. There is address end point defined in "out" sequence.
I am using WSO2 ESB 4.6.0.

Answer 1

This is the simple example of calling web service inside of the proxy. You need to up back-end service before create the proxy
<proxy xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse" name="customPro" transports="https,http" statistics="disable" trace="disable" startOnLoad="true">
<target>
<inSequence>
<send>
<endpoint>
<address uri="http://localhost:9000/services/SimpleStockQuoteService"/>
</endpoint>
</send>
</inSequence>
<out-sequence>
<send/>
</outSequence>
</target>
<publishWSDL uri="http://localhost:9000/services/SimpleStockQuoteService?wsdl"/>
<description></description>
</proxy>
You need to define web service url within the end-point in tag
As well as, this kind of send mediator return end-point response to outSequence
by default.
You can get good understanding of these if you go through the ESB documentation from following url
http://docs.wso2.org/display/ESB460/Samples

There are two ways you can achieve the logs
1. Log ESB incoming and outgoing messages through wire log.
To enable debug mode for wire logs;
- ESB console > Configure > Logging
- Set “org.apache.synapse.transport.http.wire” level to “DEBUG”.
In the log, it indicates >> incoming messages to ESB
<< outgoing messages from ESB
2. Use Logs at the appropriate place
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<proxy xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse"
name="TestProxy"
transports="https,http"
statistics="disable"
trace="disable"
startOnLoad="true">
<target>
<inSequence>
<log level="full">
<property name="test" value="incomming to ESB-----------------------"/>
</log>
<send>
<endpoint>
<address uri="http://localhost:9000/services/SimpleStockQuoteService"/>
</endpoint>
</send>
<log level="full">
<property name="test" value="outcomming from ESB-----------------------"/>
</log>
</inSequence>
<outSequence>
<log level="full">
<property name="test" value="incomming to ESB-----------------------"/>
</log>
<send/>
<log level="full">
<property name="test" value="outcomming from ESB-----------------------"/>
</log>
</outSequence>
</target>
<publishWSDL uri="http://localhost:9000/services/SimpleStockQuoteService?wsdl"/>
<description/>
</proxy>
