- 8. ● Anypoint connectors is to provide you with an easy way to connect to the thousands of software-as-a-service (SaaS) platforms out there without having to work with transports or dealing with the different protocols that each API uses. ● Anypoint Connectors are reusable extensions to Mule runtime engine (Mule) that enable you to integrate a Mule app with third-party APIs, databases, and standard integration protocols. What is a Connector?
- 9. ● Reusability ● Easy Connectivity ● Less Code Complexity ● Request Validation ● Easy Authentication and Authorization ● Provides Metadata ● Exception Handling and Error Propagation Why Connectors?
- 10. API or OOTB connector does not support the use case. ● First, look in Anypoint Exchange for a specialized pre-built connector (for example SFDC) ● If you don't find one, see if you can connect to the external system with a web service (REST or SOAP) ● Finally, evaluate if it is worth creating a custom connector When a Connector?
- 11. Connectors in Mule 4
- 13. ● REST Connect Tool (Specification Based - Exchange) ● XML SDK ● Mule SDK (JAVA) Ways to build a Custom Connector
- 14. ● The Exchange backend uses REST Connect to transparently convert a REST API specification to a Mule 3 and Mule 4 connector ● REST Connect does not currently support custom TLS configurations. ● API Specification Supported : OAS 3 - JSON, OAS 3 - YAML, OAS 2 - JSON, OAS 2 - YAM, RAML 1.0 ● Security Schemes Supported : Basic Authentication, OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials, OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code, Pass Through, Digest Authentication REST Connect
- 15. The XML SDK is an alternative to the more advanced Java-based Mule SDK. XML SDK is for creating custom modules, similar to the way you create a Mule app. In fact, you can use existing Mule components in the module. The framework simply adds a few syntactic idioms as XML elements that enclose the main parts of module, such as <module>, <operation>, and <parameter> elements. XML SDK
- 16. Use the Mule SDK for Java to extend the Mule 4 Runtime by creating new modules that you can install in Mule apps. Examples of modules include connectors, such as HTTP, or modules with custom functionality, such as the Validations Module. Prerequisites : ● JDK 8 ● Maven ● IDE (Anypoint Studio, Eclipse, Intellij) ● Anypoint Studio Mule SDK (Java)
