GroovyScript: Parse SOAP Response and get node names and node values

Hi all,   I have a SOAP response like this :      <S:Envelope xmlns:S="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"> <S:Header> <MessageID xmlns="http://www.w3.org">uuid: ...</MessageID> ...

    Hi,

     

    Ok, no problem. Although I think you can surely assume that given that it's a SOAP response we can start at the Body element - would that be OK?

     

    If so, here is a recursive alternative:

     

    def results=[]

def printNode
printNode = { output,node ->         
    node.children().each{ printNode(results,it) }
    if (node.children().size()==0) output << node.name()+'='+node.text() //Exlude parent elements
}

slurperResponse.'**'.findAll { it.name() == 'Body' }.each { printNode(results,it) }

results.each{
	log.info it
}

    This should:

    • Iterate over all child elements (not attributes, could add that)
    • Only print the child element names and values (not the parent ones, to get those remove the if statement that excludes them) 

    Is this what you need?

    Regards,

    Rup

You can change the base node value.

By the way, you do not need to bother about having common script if you are using groovy. It basically depends on data, mostly you can write one-liners here in groovy, so should not really bother about writing common code.
You can find different samples in my github repos.
