foam

Simple SOAP client for NodeJS. This module was created because none of the existing SOAP modules (most modules depend of https://www.npmjs.org/package/soap) would work with a third-party partner WSDL. As SOAP is just a POST request over HTTP, foam bypasses the WSDL discovery and just posts the data to the endpoint (which anyhow performs better than using the WSDL).

foam process the message and serialize it in a SOAP envelope and body, and parse the XML response into a Javascript object.

Usage

npm install foam --save
var operation = 'CelsiusToFahrenheit'
    , namespace = 'http://www.w3schools.com/webservices/'
    , action = "http://www.w3schools.com/webservices/CelsiusToFahrenheit"
    , message = {'Celsius': '23'}
    , uri = namespace + 'tempconvert.asmx'
    ;
 
var foam = require('foam');
 
foam(uri, operation, action, message, {namespace: namespace},
  function (err, result) {
    console.log(result.CelsiusToFahrenheitResponse.CelsiusToFahrenheitResult);
  }
);

Parameters

  • uri - endpoint of the SOAP service
  • operation - SOAP operation
  • action - Soapaction http header
  • message - a Javascript object that will be serialised to XML
