Store Tutorial ============== This tutorial that shows how to use SCA and Tuscany to build multiple variations of an online Store application. The variations demostrate the evolution of the Store as it goes through the following stages: 1 - Initial online fruit store 2 - Fruit store merges with vegetable store to form the fruit and vegetable store 3 - The fruit and vegetable store move to using a database for storing the cart 4 - The fruit and vegetable store acts as a supplier to other online stores 5 - The fruit and vegetable store ships their software solution to another geography For diagrams of the scenarios covered here, please refer to Tutorial.pdf Running The Tutorial Application -------------------------------- Start the SCA Domain Manager on linux: cd domain java -jar ../../../modules/tuscany-node-launcher-1.5.jar domain Start the SCA Domain Manager on windows: cd domain java -jar ..\..\..\modules\tuscany-node-launcher-1.5.jar domain Access the SCA Domain Manager application by pointing your Web browser at: http://localhost:9990/ui/cloud/ This shows you all of the Tuscany nodes that are configured to run in the store tutorial domain. If you are interested, the configuration is stored on disc in the store/domain directory but for now let's just start some nodes and see what happens. The different nodes you see are used to start different scenarios in the tutorial. Select the node you want to start (e.g StoreNode), then click the Start button. You may need to give the nodes a little time to start up. Check the console where you lauched the domain manager application and you will see the following message when nodes have started. INFO: INFO: Press 'q' to quit, 'r' to restart. Remember to shut down the nodes before you exit the domain manager application. The following describes the nodes you have to start for each scenario and some usful links to explore once the node has started. 1 - Initial online fruit store ---------------------------- Start StoreNode The store itself can be found at http://localhost:8100/ui/ If you want to look at how Tuscany provides remote bindings you can take a look at the service description that Tuscany created automatically for the store catalog service which is exposed over a JSONRPC binding Point your browser at: http://l3localhost:8100/StoreCatalog?smd The service is configured in the SCA composite file in the following way: USD Note the inclusion of . This is all that is required to make this service available over JSONRPC. If you want to expose the service over web services simply add instead of (or as well as) . 2 - Fruit store merges with vegetable store to form the fruit and vegetable store --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Start CatalogsNode StoreMergerNode The store itself can be found at http://localhost:8101/ui/ Now you see that there are more items in the catalog as the fruit and vegetable catalogs are both providing content. The vegetable catalog that was introduced during the merger is contacted using web services. If you want to see the WSDL for the vegetable catalog point your browser at http://l3aw203:8200/VegetablesCatalogWebService?wsdl The vegetable catalog service is configured in an SCA composite file in the following way: 3 - The fruit and vegetable store move to using a database to storing the cart ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start StoreDBNode The store itself can be found at http://l3aw203:8102/ui/ This looks the same as the scenario 2 store but this time a database is used for storing items put into the shopping cart. When you add items you will see messages on the console indicating that items are added to the database. For example. INFO: insert into Cart values ('cart-8c8bcc43-5036-4e9a-b282-0dd3d00d350c', 'Apple', '$2.99') This scenario shows how you change the implementation of a service without changing any of the configuration of the rest of the application 4 - The fruit and vegetable store acts as a supplier to other online stores --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Start StoreSupplierNode The store itself can be found at http://localhost:8103/ui/ Again this is the same basic store as in scenario 3. However this time the shopping cart and catalog serivces have been given additional remote bindings so that the services can be accessed by others. For example, take a look at the WSDL description of the shopping cart service that is now available at: http://l3aw203:8333/ShoppinCartTotalWebService?wsdl This WSDL is available as the shopping cart total service is now configured with a web services binding in the following way: ../store-supplier/target/cart-db If you want to actually exercise these services from a standalone application you can run up the StoreClientNode using the provided launcher store/store-client/launch/LaunchStoreClientNode 5 - The fruit and vegetable store ships their software solution to another geography ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start CurrencyNode StoreEUNode The store itself can be found at http://localhost:8104/ui/ Notice now that the prices are quoted in Euros and the language is French. This was achieved by editing the store.html file to change the language and presentation to be appropriate for Europe. The curreny was changed by reconfiguring the catalog component to use EUR instead of USD. EUR ...
