WCF.JS
A WCF-compatible web service client stack for node.js. Written in pure javascript!
Imagine this:
var binding = new WSHttpBinding(
{ MessageEncoding: "Mtom"
, SecurityMode:"TransportWithMessageCredential"
})
, proxy = new Proxy(binding)
proxy.ClientCredentials.Username.Username = "yaron";
proxy.ClientCredentials.Username.Password = "1234";
proxy.send(message, function(response) {
console.log(response)
});
(See below for a complete working sample)
Currently supports a subset of:
- BasicHttpBinding
- WSHttpBinding
- CustomBinding
The current subset includes:
- MTOM / Text encodings
- WS-Addressing (all versions)
- Transport Security (SSL)
- TransportWithMessageCredential (Username)
- Message security where ClientCredentialType is Certificate (signature only, without encryption)
For more information visit my wcf blog or my twitter.
Install
Install with npm:
npm install wcf.js
Usage
BasicHttpBinding (TransportWithMessageCredential)
var BasicHttpBinding = require('wcf.js').BasicHttpBinding
, Proxy = require('wcf.js').Proxy
, binding = new BasicHttpBinding(
{ SecurityMode: "TransportWithMessageCredential"
, MessageClientCredentialType: "UserName"
})
, proxy = new Proxy(binding, "http://localhost:7171/Service/clearUsername")
, message = "<Envelope xmlns='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'>" +
"<Header />" +
"<Body>" +
"<GetData xmlns='http://tempuri.org/'>" +
"<value>123</value>" +
"</GetData>" +
"</Body>" +
"</Envelope>"
proxy.ClientCredentials.Username.Username = "yaron"
proxy.ClientCredentials.Username.Password = "1234"
proxy.send(message, "http://tempuri.org/IService/GetData", function(response, ctx) {
console.log(response)
});
CustomBinding (Mtom + UserNameOverTransport + WSAddressing10)
var CustomBinding = require('wcf.js').CustomBinding
, MtomMessageEncodingBindingElement = require('wcf.js').MtomMessageEncodingBindingElement
, HttpTransportBindingElement = require('wcf.js').HttpTransportBindingElement
, SecurityBindingElement = require('./lib/proxies/wcf.js').SecurityBindingElement
, Proxy = require('wcf.js').Proxy
, fs = require('fs')
, binding = new CustomBinding(
[ new SecurityBindingElement({AuthenticationMode: "UserNameOverTransport"})
, new MtomMessageEncodingBindingElement({MessageVersion: "Soap12WSAddressing10"}),
, new HttpTransportBindingElement()
])
, proxy = new Proxy(binding, "http://localhost:7171/Service/mtom")
, message = '<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">' +
'<s:Header />' +
'<s:Body>' +
'<EchoFiles xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">' +
'<value xmlns:a="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/" xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">' +
'<a:File1 />' +
'<a:File2 />' +
'</value>' +
'</EchoFiles>' +
'</s:Body>' +
'</s:Envelope>'
proxy.addAttachment("//*[local-name(.)='File1']", "me.jpg");
proxy.addAttachment("//*[local-name(.)='File2']", "stuff.txt");
proxy.ClientCredentials.Username.Username = "yaron";
proxy.ClientCredentials.Username.Password = "1234";
proxy.send(message, "http://tempuri.org/IService/EchoFiles", function(response, ctx) {
console.log(response);
//read an mtom attachment from the soap response
var file = proxy.getAttachment("//*[local-name(.)='File1']")
fs.writeFileSync("result.jpg", file)
});

### CustomBinding with message level signature
```````````````javascript
var wcf = require('wcf.js')
, fs = require("fs")
var sec = new wcf.SecurityBindingElement({ AuthenticationMode: "MutualCertificate"
, ValidateResponseSignature: true})
, binding = new wcf.CustomBinding(
[ sec
, new wcf.TextMessageEncodingBindingElement({MessageVersion: "Soap11WSAddressing10"})
, new wcf.HttpTransportBindingElement()
])
var proxy = new wcf.Proxy(binding, "http://localhost:7171/Service/sign_body_timestamp_wsa")
proxy.ClientCredentials.ClientCertificate.Certificate =
fs.readFileSync("client.pem").toString()
proxy.ClientCredentials.ServiceCertificate.DefaultCertificate =
fs.readFileSync("server_public.pem").toString()
var version = proxy.binding.getCustomBinding().getContentType()
, ns = version=="text/xml" ?
"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" :
"http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope"
, message = "<Envelope xmlns='"+ns+"'>" +
"<Header />" +
"<Body>" +
"<GetData xmlns='http://tempuri.org/'>" +
"<value>123</value>" +
"</GetData>" +
"</Body>" +
"</Envelope>"
proxy.send(message, "http://tempuri.org/IService/GetData", function(message, ctx) {
console.log(ctx)
})
