A SOAP client and server for node.js.

@piruzzolo:matrix.org

with loginData having username, password, domain and workstation

here is my code

var soap = require('soap');
var url = './DocumentiWCFService.wsdl';

soap.createClientAsync(url).then((client) => {
    var loginData = { username: MYUSER, password: MYPASS, domain: MYDOMAIN, workstation: MYWS };
    client.setSecurity(new soap.NTLMSecurity(loginData));
    return client.Documents_GetAll();
}).then((result) => {
    console.log(result);
});

Hi! I have an application where we don't ever care about any of the XML attributes that come back, just the values of each returned field. When the API returns attributes, node-soap changes the shape of the object to put the value in $value and the attributes in attributes, but, when it doesn't, this object is not formed. Is there any way to make this function consistently one way or the other (either with the $value object or without the $value object, preferably without)?

Hello (sorry if I'm not using correct terminology), I have a scenario where I "call some method" on WSDL and get response object, then I change something in this object and send it back to some other method on WSDL. But when I send object back I used rawRequest to inspect what I'm sending and I noticed that for example "date of birth" (which is in format 1979-11-24T23:00:00.000Z) is empty - any ideas why this gets omitted ?

Any idea why the overrideRootElement option might sometimes not work?

const options = {
    namespaceArrayElements: false, // This works!
    envelopeKey: 'SOAP-ENV', // This works!
    overrideRootElement: {
        namespace: 'ns1', // This DOES NOT work!
        xmlnsAttributes: [{ // This DOES NOT work!
            name: 'xmlns:ns1',
            value: "http://some.domain"
        }]
    }
}

const client = await soap.createClientAsync(MyWsdlUrl, options);
client.myApiMethod(params, (result) => {
    console.log(client.lastRequest);
});

This is the XML it generates:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <SOAP-ENV:Body>
        <impl:myApiMethod>
            Name space and xmlns attributes are not changing!
        </impl:myApiMethod>
    </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Hey! Can someone tell me if Node-Soap follows redirects, HTTP Status Code 301? And if so how I go about enabling that feature?

Hey! Can someone tell me if Node-Soap follows redirects, HTTP Status Code 301? And if so how I go about enabling that feature?

I should be a little more specific. I am specifically asking when making the SOAP calls if the client will handle the redirects or do I have to do something special to make this happen. Currently, it is not following the redirects and and I can't quite figure out how to accommodate for this.

Hi. formidable@v1 is deprecated. Do you plan upgrading to v2 or v3 anytime soon?

Hi! This is my first time using SOAP, I have a node.js application that needs to integrate with an application that provides a SOAP api. They only have Java documentation so I am trying to figure out how to do this...

I have managed to create the client but I get an error going any further. I am trying to authenticate, I have the 3 required params and an example Java snippet. The Java snippet is:

IntimeServiceV3_0Stub.Authenticate auth=new IntimeServiceV3_0Stub.Authenticate();
auth.setAgencyRefCode("<supplied_credentials>");
auth.setUsername("<supplied_credentials>");
auth.setPassword("<supplied_credentials>");
IntimeServiceV3_0Stub.AuthenticateResponse authResp=stub.authenticate(auth);
String ticket=authResp.get_return();
System.out.println("Authentication token:" + ticket);

I am wondering how I go about converting that to using node-soap, I have at present:

client.authenticateAsync("agencyRefCode", "username", "password")
        .then(res => {
            console.log("SUCCESS");
            console.log(res);
        })
        .catch(err => {
            console.log("ERROR");
console.log(err);
        })

I have tried a few variations of the aboe. There is also an authenticate method available on the client for non-async requests but the same error is returned each time. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi folks, i am new in world of SOAP and can't understand if my code need any more. I use express-soap over node-soap and this is my code:

const express = require('express')
const { soap } = require('express-soap')
const db = require('./db')
const app = express()
const port = 3000

app.use(
    '/soap/transaction',
    soap({
        services: {
            TransactionService: {
                Transaction(

Hey. Has someone experience using soap in an Angular App.

I do get a lot of errors like:
Error: ./node_modules/xml-crypto/lib/signed-xml.js
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'fs' in 'project-folder\node_modules\xml-crypto\lib'

Previously we used ngx-soap. But ngx-soap has no updates for angular11+

Hi,

I'm having problems with a WSDL File that has complex types that are extended from oneanthother.

in a operation it will then resolve all fields to be of the same namespace while they are actually from different namespaces.

A { a: string }, B extends A { b: number } - operation(B)

doing something like operation({ a: "1", b: "2" }) I would need the xml to be something like <A.a>1</A.a><B.b>2</B.b>. But the Result is then <B.a>1</B.a><B.b>2</B.b>

any Idea how I could best debug this within the code? Right now I'm trying to print out everything in WSD.objectToXML and just see that the nsPrefix is then always B (also for the ones that should have namespace A)

Michael Schramm

@wodka

I am thinking right now that the problem is coming from within the wsdl parser -> as only arrays seem to have the correct namespace assigned.

  input: {
    VUNr: 'VUNr|xsd:string|minLength,maxLength',
    ClientId: 'xsd:string',
    'TechnischeParameter[]': {
      Key: 'xsd:string',
      Value: 'xsd:string',
      targetNSAlias: '__tns__',
      targetNamespace: 'urn:CommonServiceTypes-1-1-0'
    },

Hi, I'm trying to use v0.43, but it ships with a very old version of Axios 0.21, because of this it fails typescript checks when I pass it an AxiosInstance 0.26 using options.request. A couple of thoughts, I can work around it by making axios: any, not optimal.

Is there a way to not bundle axios but refer to a dependency? Or alternatively, could you just upgrade to a newer release? I believe 0.21 has security issues. https://snyk.io/vuln/npm:axios@0.21.1

:pray:

@yanfali

It's not stated in the docs, but is the assumption that clients must be created per request? i.e. you should not share a client between different parallel requests? Or is it possible to create a request pool of clients and re-use them?

Hi,
It appears a critical vulnerability was raised recently on 'formidable' in Snyk - https://security.snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-JS-FORMIDABLE-2838956
Recommended fix is to update to 3.2.4 and above. Are there any plans to update this dependency? I did see an open PR but that is only to update to v2 and seems to be facing build issues.
