JSON RPC
Is there a way to get JSON for all the services. Like SOAPService or
xmlrpc, I like to be able to call the service through http in the same
pattern:
http://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/webtools/control/SOAPService/
I looked in ./service/config/serviceengine.xml but couldn't find any
reference to JSON engine. The closest I found is xmlrpc but nothing
related to json.
<engine name="xml-rpc-local"
class="org.ofbiz.service.engine.XMLRPCClientEngine">
<parameter name="url"
value="http://localhost:8080/webtools/control/xmlrpc"/>
<parameter name="login" value="admin"/>
<parameter name="password" value="ofbiz"/>
</engine>
Is there a way to add json handler ?? for example
http://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/webtools/control/jsonrpc
thank you.

Here is a controller example:
<request-map uri="getToolsFromCatagoryJSON">
<security https="true" auth="true"/>
<event type="java" path="com.fs.jobshop.JobshopEvents"
invoke="getToolsFromCatagoryJSON"/>
<response name="success" type="none"/>
<response name="error" type="none"/>
</request-map>
Here is the function header:
public static String getToolsFromCatagoryJSON(HttpServletRequest
request, HttpServletResponse response)

I have a little confusion now. Do I really need a REST service ? I need to
call a url and get the json/xml from external source and this I can do in
normal request -respnose fashion of controller.xml.
Any thoughts...

Hi Deepak,
I think in such case you can pass *@Context HttpServletRequest request*
In your REST Service and use *request* object further.
Thanks and Regards

I want to call search service from REST and hence ProductSearchSession
needs to be accessed but methods in this class requires HttpServletRequest.

Amit,
I gave it another thought, and I see what you mean. I need to modify
the code and tweak it a bit and use it as a component to call another
services. This will be fine for now, but I will lose control over some
service that should not be exported. It will be nice if I can get the
same as the xmlrpc. For now this should work. I am getting a
nullPointerException with this code as the header is not being
initialized properly or not injected.
@Context
HttpHeaders headers;
I am still digging. Thank you a lot.

Amit,
can not thank you enough for the fast response. I am still lost, and I
believe I am missing something.
The example is talking about creating a new component, but I need to
use existing ones.
It's not clear to me how to call the service and get json response. My
needs is to do something like what is in the article
and get json.

Thank you a lot.

Hi Mansour,
In the given example if you change Response object to String using JSON,
that should work for you.
