Extending Ladon with new interface protocols

class ladon.interfaces.base.BaseInterface(sinfo, **kw)

All interface implementations must descend from BaseInterface. The interface implementation can be thought of as an aggregator that ties the three basic functions of a web service protocol together:

  1. ServiceDescriptor - A generator class that can provide a description for the service. ie. WSDL for soap.
  2. BaseRequestHandler - A handler that can parse the raw request objects from the client and convert them into a so-called req_dict (Request dictionary)
  3. BaseResponseHandler - A handler that can process the res_dict (Result Dictionary) of a service call and build a response object that fit’s the protocol being implemented.
  4. BaseFaultHandler - A handler that can convert a ladon.exceptions.service.ServiceFault object to a fault response that fits the interface.

It is recommended that you study ladon.interfaces.jsonwsp to learn howto extend Ladon with more protocols.

Adding the interface

Currently you have to add an import statement in the bottom of ladon/interfaces/__init__.py to add your protocol to Ladon. This is a temporary solution.

Like this:

import ladon.interfaces.soap
import ladon.interfaces.jsonwsp
# My CORBA implementation
import ladon.interfaces.corba
