CDAS Web Services Developer's Kit

Introduction

The Coordinated Data Analysis System (CDAS) supports simultaneous multi-mission, multi-instrument selection and comparison of science data among a wide range of current space missions. While CDAWeb provides access to this data through an HTML-based user interface, these Web services provides a distributed programming interface to CDAS. Figure 1.1-1 shows a simplified view of the software architecture.

Description

This developer's kit contains the development files required to develop a client application that uses the CDAS web services. This document also provides information to help a developer in developing a CDAS web service client. Specifically, the kit contains the following:

A URL to the WSDL file describing the CDAS Web Services which you can use with any development platform that supports web services
A Java library that provides a convenient API to the CDAS Web Services
Documentation that describes the CDAS Web Services API and the Java library
Example code that demonstrates using the CDAS web services

This document assumes the reader is already familiar with distributed programming concepts and a programming language but previous knowledge of Web services is not required.

Issues common to all types of clients

This sections describes issues related to utilizing the CDAS Web Services API from any type of client. That is, the issues described in this section apply to all clients irrespective of the programming language/tools used to develop the client or runtime enviroment in which the client is executed. The following issues are common to all types of clients:

Changes to the Web services
WSDL binding style
HTTP User-Agent header
Server resource limits

These issues are described below.

Changes to the Web services

We strive not to make changes to the Web services that would cause client applications to fail. Major functional changes and changes to the Web services' public interface are only made at major releases (e.g., R1.0 to R2.0) and not at minor releases (e.g., R1.0 to R1.1). We provide advanced notice of major changes and leave the existing Web services available for a transition period after the new release has been deployed (at a URL that is different from the previous major release). Announcements of both major and minor releases are made to the spdf_announcements e-mail list. All client developers are encouraged to subscribe to this e-mail list so they are aware of changes. Otherwise, it is possible that Web service changes could be made that adversely a developer's client without the developer knowing about the change.

WSDL binding style

The CDAS Web services were initially developed before the Web Service Interoperability (WS-I) Basic Profile was finalized. The CDAS Web services currently use an RPC/encoded WSDL binding style. This binding style may cause interoperability issues for clients that don't use the JAX-RPC libraries and the provided sscWebServices-client.jar. In particular, Microsoft .NET clients may have problems calling the CDAS Web services because of their use of RPC/encoded binding style. We are considering a change to the document/literal binding style. If you have comments concerning the binding style, please submit them to CDAS Feedback.

HTTP User-Agent header

You are strongly encouraged to have your client set the HTTP User-Agent header (RFC 2068) to a value that identifies your client application in each CDAS Web Service request that it makes. This will allow us to measure the usefulness of these services and justify their continued support. It isn't too important what value you use but it's best if it uniquely identifies your application. The specifics of how to do this in the client varies depending upon the programming language and support libraries used for the client. The example Java client described below contains the code required to set the header in a Java/JAX-RPC client. If you are unable or unwilling to set the User-Agent value in your client but still want us to know that your client uses the CDAS Web Services, you may send a description of your client and any comments about the CDAS Web Services to CDAWeb feedback

Server resource limits

There are server computer resource limits imposed on the CDAS Web services. While these limits are not expected to be limiting for legitimate requests, making requests for a long period of time or for a large number of spacecraft can exceed these limits and result in a "request exceeded computer resource limits" exception. A client may want to be prepared to deal with such occasions.

How to use the WSDL file

The WSDL file provides a standard description of CDAS web services. The file is available from https://cdaweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/WS/jaxrpc?WSDL. You may want to save the file to your computer's disk for later use.

Note
Depending upon your browser's XML capabilities and how it handles an XML file that doesn't contain any style information, you may need to use the browser's "view source" option to view the WSDL in the browser. Recent versions of Internet Explorer and Mozilla will have no problem displaying the WSDL. Alternately, you may force the browser to save the WSDL file and view it using another application. The file should be viewable in a simple text editor.

Note

Depending upon your browser's XML capabilities and how it handles an XML file that doesn't contain any style information, you may need to use the browser's "view source" option to view the WSDL in the browser. Recent versions of Internet Explorer and Mozilla will have no problem displaying the WSDL. Alternately, you may force the browser to save the WSDL file and view it using another application. The file should be viewable in a simple text editor.

Many programming languages now understand WSDL and can use this file to automatically invoke CDAS services. For example, the WSDL can be imported into .NET, converted into Java code using the JAX-RPC wscompile tool, or used directly by Perl SOAP::Lite. Refer to your particular development tools' documentation to learn how to use the provided WSDL file to develop a client application. If you are developing your client in a language other than Java or don't want to use the included Java library, then you must use the WSDL and can ignore the next section.

How to use the Java API

For convenience, we have included a Java library based upon JAX-RPC. It is not necessary to use this library but it will be the easiest way for someone developing a Java client to access the CDAS Web Services. You may use the WSDL described above along with any other standards complying web service development tools to develop a client instead of using this library.

The Java API provides an easy to use, high level API for accessing the CDAS web services. Here is a description of the CDAS Web services Java API. It was developed using Java EE 5 JAX-RPC. In order to use the provided jar, you must already have a Java 1.5 or higher development environment with the JAX-RPC run-time class libraries. At the time of this writing, JAX-RPC was not available as a separate download from Sun Microsystems. Your options from Sun are to get the Java Enterprise Edition 5 development environment. Vendors other than Sun may offer other options.

The cdasWebService-test.jar provided with this kit contains an application that can be used to test the client run-time environment with the CDAS web services. To use the test client, use the equivalent of the following, single line command for your environment:

java -classpath cdasWebServices-test.jar:jax-rpc-jars:cdasWebServices-client.jar gov.nasa.gsfc.spdf.cdas.test.WsExample https://cdaweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/WS/jaxrpc

where jax-rpc-jars is to be replaced by all of the JAX-RPC run-time support jar files.

This should produce output similar to the following:
