  65848   Wed Apr 23 10:53:58 2008 Idea Willem KosterW.Koster@rug.nlRequest  Request: elog as a "web service" ? (xml / soap)

We're using elog as our CMDB, but now management wants us to employ "web services" and I fear going to another tool (elog is fitting the admins like a glove, so we'd rather keep it)

Is it possible to configure elog to be able to run as a web-service ?  (basically getting xml-output according to a specific (SOAP) schema instead of html output)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_services

A 'Web service' (also Web Service) is defined by the W3C as "a software system designed to support interoperable Machine to Machine interaction over a network." Web services are frequently just Web APIs that can be accessed over a network, such as the Internet, and executed on a remote system hosting the requested services.

The W3C Web service definition encompasses many different systems, but in common usage the term refers to clients and servers that communicate using XML messages that follow the SOAP standard. Common in both the field and the terminology is the assumption that there is also a machine readable description of the operations supported by the server written in the Web Services Description Language (WSDL). The latter is not a requirement of a SOAP endpoint, but it is a prerequisite for automated client-side code generation in many Java and .NET SOAP frameworks (frameworks such as Spring and Apache CXF being notable exceptions). Some industry organizations, such as the WS-I, mandate both SOAP and WSDL in their definition of a Web service.

At the moment no support for a Web Service is planned.

You do not have to change the environment variable, this is all handled inside elogd. I fixed teh above error in SVN revision 2098. Can you try it?

is there any new option i can use/configure ?

i still get the english datetime

As I told you, you have to upgrade to SVN revision 2098 or later.

 

i've updated to ELOG V2.7.3-2104

Well, then you should get German locale. I just tried with the same version and following elogd.cfg, so I don't know what you are doing wrong:

[global]
port = 8080
language = german

[demo]
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject

Have you tried the "RSS Title" option?
