Using AE_AJAX_SERVICE_UTIL Functions

The AE_AJAX_SERVICE_UTIL Javascript object (in

ae-avc-util.js

) has the following utility functions related to making JSON invokes:

getActiveVOSServiceURL

postJSON

getActiveVOSServiceUrl(serviceNamePath)

A helper function that creates the endpoint URL to the given service name by appending the service name to a predefined engine endpoint. The engine URL should be assigned (at the start of your script) to the global variable

AE_ACTIVEVOS_ENGINE_URL

. If a value to

AE_ACTIVEVOS_ENGINE_URL

is not assigned, then

http://localhost:8080/active-bpel

is used.

If a value is assigned to the global variable

AE_ACTIVEVOS_PROXY_URL

, then this function returns the proxy URL with service URL in the query string in a parameter named

destination

. See example below.

// Define engine context URL and optional proxy URL at the start of your script.
// If the engine URL is not given, 'http://localhost:8080/active-bpel' is used.
// Note: AE_ACTIVEVOS_ENGINE_URL is global variable declared in ae-avc-util.js. 
//       You only need to assign it a value (to server /active-bpel context).
AE_ACTIVEVOS_ENGINE_URL = "http://demoserver:81/active-bpel"; 

// Optionally, if you are using a proxy for AJAX requests, you can 
// assign it a value here:
// AE_ACTIVEVOS_PROXY_URL = "http://localhost:8080/proxy";
// for example, JSON service URL.
var loanServiceXmlUrl = AE_AJAX_SERVICE_UTIL.getActiveVOSServiceUrl("JSON/humantaskProcessDemoService");

// loanServiceXmlUrl is now equivalent to: 
//      AE_ACTIVEVOS_ENGINE_URL + "/services/" + "JSON/humantaskProcessDemoService"
// for example,  
//      http://demoserver:81/active-bpel/JSON/humantaskProcessDemoService
// If a value to AE_ACTIVEVOS_PROXY_URL is assigned, the 'loanServiceXmlUrl' becomes part of
// the proxy URL string parameter named 'destination'. For example, 
//      http://localhost:8080/proxy?destination=http://demoserver:81/active-bpel/JSON/humantaskProcessDemoService
// For example, XML service URL.
var loanServiceXmlUrl = AE_AJAX_SERVICE_UTIL.getActiveVOSServiceUrl("XML/humantaskProcessDemoService");

postJSON(aServiceUrl, aJsonData, aOnSuccessFn, aOnFaultFn, aOnErrorFn, aTimeOut)

Sends the JSON request to the server using HTTP POST and calls back with the JSON response. This function also handles error responses and callbacks either the JSON fault handler or the HTTP transport level error handler. Only the

aServiceUrl

and

aJsonData

are required.

var serviceUrl = "http://localhost:8080/active-bpel/JSON/humantaskProcessDemoService";
  // or serviceUrl=AE_AJAX_SERVICE_UTIL.getActiveVOSServiceUrl("JSON/humantaskProcessDemoService");
  // send JSON 
AE_AJAX_SERVICE_UTIL.postJSON(
  serviceUrl,    // service url
  jsonRequest,   // request JSON object
 
 function(aJsonResponse) { // success callback of JSON data
     // handle success response
   alert("Success!");
 },    
 
 function(aJsonFault) { // fault callback of JSON data
    alert("Fault!");
 },      
 
 function(aStatusCode, aStatusMessage) { // http error callback
   alert("Transport error: " + aStatusCode + " " + aStatusMessage);
 }
);
