updating endpoint dynamically

Hi Usha,

apart from the solution in the post you mentioned, you could try creating a setup script that somehow checks which endpoints that should be used and sets them accordingly; you could put this in an external component in the script-library, making it easy to re-use between projects.

Hope this helps!

Hi Ole,

Can you give me more insight how to achieve this? I never used script-library...

Usha, the way the I am accomplishing this is to create a test case, and run it multiple times from command line (in my case from ant), passing in the host name that I want to execute against.

We basically have a switch statement that is part of the start up groovy script library
swith (enviorment like prod,qa,etc)
case prod:
//setup your wsdl endpoints
wsld1 = prod.domain.com/service1
wsld2 = prod.domain.com/service2

case: QA
wsdl1 = qa.domain.com/service1
wsdl2 = qa.domain.com/service2

if( project.interfaces["wsld1 "] != null )
project.interfaces["wsld1 "].definition =  context.expand('${#Project#wsld1 }') + '?wsdl';

Hi!

Can't you always use property-expansion in all your endpoints and just update the property they are using?  (instead of removing the actual endpoint..)

regards!

Sharing the class for updating the endpoints dynamically

class DynamicEndpoint{
def log
def context
def envdym
def project

DynamicEndpoint(log,context,project){
this.log = log
this.context = context
this.project = project
}

def ChangeEndPoint(envdym)
{
def filename
def file
def props
def endpoint
def urldef
def currentendpoint
def spliturl
def jointlist

log.info("Environment is"+" "+envdym)

//reading the properties file
filename = context.expand( '${projectDir}\\endpoint.properties' )
log.info("Endpoint Properties filepath is:"+" "+filename)

//creating file handle for reading the contents
file = new java.io.File( filename )

// if the file exists,read the file and set the endpoint according to the environment entered and finally close the file
if( file.exists() )
{
FileReader r = null;
r = new java.io.FileReader( file )
   
    props = new java.util.Properties()
    props.load(r)
 
    endpoint = props.get(envdym)
    log.info("Endpoint tobe changed to is : $endpoint")
   
    //Change the mainEndpoint property value in the Project
  if( endpoint != null && endpoint.trim().length() > 0 )
    {

      project.setPropertyValue( "mainEndpoint", endpoint ) //setting the new endpoint
      log.info( "Successfully Changed mainEndpoint to [" + endpoint + "]" )
    }
else
{
log.info("Endpoint is not set")
}

log.info("**********************************************")

// To update the WSDL's

          for(iface in project.getInterfaceList())
{   

//Get the current URL Definition
          urldef = iface.definition;
log.info("Current URL is:"+urldef)

//split the urldef to update the endpoint
          spliturl = urldef.split("/active-bpel/")
            log.info("Split URL is"+" "+spliturl.toString())

//join the endpoint,urldef,biniding
          jointlist = [endpoint,'/active-bpel/',spliturl[1]]
            log.info("Joint List is:"+" "+jointlist);
         
  //create full url definition
  urldef = ""
jointlist.each {
  urldef += it + ""
}
// log.info("Final endpoint is:"+fullString)
//update definition with new endpoint
// urldef = fullString   
log.info("New URL is:"+urldef)     

//set the binding definition with new endpoint
iface.definition = urldef

log.info("Finished updating endpoint of Service:"+" "+iface.getName())
log.info("************************************************************")
        }

r.close() //closing the file handle
}
else log.info( "Missing [" + filename + "]" )

}
}

call following way in the Load Script section of the Project

def m = new DynamicEndpoint(log,context,project)
m. ChangeEndPoint('qa')

Nice! Thanks for sharing!
