如何在Rails应用程序中处理肥皂数据？

Question

I wanna process soap data in my rails app, requirements is like this: 3rd party app connect to my app and post the soap data using http protocol, then in my controller, my app has to parse these soap data, store them and then send the result to the requestor using soap format. Now the problem is I do not know how to deal these in my controller. Which gem shoud I used? wash_out or sovan?? Could someone give a detail example？ Thanks for helping.

Answer 1

I'm not a fan of using SOAP, but there are a lot of documentation on internet, like this

Basically you need to include the next code in your model

def initialize(zip)
    client = Savon::Client.new("http://theserver.com?WSDL")
    response = client.request :web, :info, body:{"foo" => foo}
    if response.success?
        #do code
    end
end

This railscast haves a good explanation too.
