To validate the XML Schema, just add two properties:
1) tell it to validate the document
2) tell it what file to use and where to find it](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/muleintroduction-160830063834/85/Mule-introduction-24-320.jpg)
Mule introduction
- 2. What is Mule? How do you use Mule? What are the core Mule concepts? Learning mule with File endpoints 2
- 3. Mule is an open-source Enterprise Service Backbone (ESB) 3
- 4. Folder to folder Queue to queue Shared memory to shared memory Using different types of transports In a flexible way 4
- 5. An XML pipeline is a series of operation that are performed on one or more XML files Examples include: ◦ validate ◦ transform ◦ prune (remove nodes) ◦ split (break a single XML file into many files) ◦ merge (join two or more files together) 5
- 6. Focus on specifying "What" not "How" Empower business analysis to write machine- readable specifications Hide the "How" behind services with clear interfaces (SOA) 6
- 7. Mule Manager Mule Model Universal Message Object (UMO) Endpoints External Applications 7
- 8. A transport or "provider", is a set of objects that add support to Mule to handle a specific kind of transport or protocol Examples ◦ the "Email Provider" enables Mule to send and receive messages via the SMTP, POP and IMAP protocols 8
- 9. A connector is the object that sends and receives messages on behalf of an endpoint. Connectors are bundled as part of specific transports or providers. For example, the FileConnector can read and write file system files. 9
- 10. A router is the object that do something with messages once they have been received by a connector, or prior to being sent out by the connector 10
- 11. A filter optionally filters incoming or outgoing messages that are coming into or going out from a connector. For example, the File Provider comes with a FilenameWildcardFilter that restricts which files are read by the connector based on file name patterns. For example only files with the .xml extension can be routed. Filters are used in conjunction with Routers. 11
- 12. A transformer optionally changes incoming or outgoing messages in some way This is usually done to make the message format useable by a downstream function Examples: ◦ the ByteArrayToString transformer converts byte arrays into String objects. 12
- 13. The nine stages of a mule event ◦ first 2 – inbound ◦ middle 4 – component ◦ last 2 – outbound 13 Endpoint (Message Receiver) Endpoint (Message Dispatcher) Inbound Router Outbound Router Inbound Transformer Outbound Transformer Interceptor Service Invocation Interceptor Inbound Component Outbound Optional Step
- 14. Some event triggers a message flow ◦ A file being written into a folder ◦ A message arriving on a message queue ◦ A record in a database ◦ Data written to a socket 14 Endpoint (Message Dispatcher) Inbound Router Outbound Router Inbound Transformer Outbound Transformer Interceptor Service Invocation Interceptor Endpoint (Message Receiver)
- 15. The inbound router is the fist step in a message. Functions typically performed by an inbound router ◦ Filtering ◦ Remove duplicate messages ◦ Matching messages ◦ Aggregation (combining) ◦ Re-sequence data ◦ Forwarding See also ◦ IdempotentReceiver ◦ CorrolationAggregator ◦ CorrelationResequencer 15 Endpoint (Message Dispatcher) Inbound Router Outbound Router Inbound Transformer Outbound Transformer Interceptor Service Invocation Interceptor Endpoint (Message Receiver)
- 16. Used to intercept message flow into your service component Used trigger monitor/events or interrupt the flow of the message Example: an authorization interceptor could ensure that the current request has the correct credentials to invoke the service. 16 Endpoint (Message Dispatcher) Inbound Router Outbound Router Inbound Transformer Outbound Transformer Service Invocation Interceptor Endpoint (Message Receiver) Interceptor
- 17. If the inbound data is not in the correct format for the service it must be transformed at this point 17 Endpoint (Message Receiver) Endpoint (Message Dispatcher) Inbound Router Outbound Router Outbound Transformer Interceptor Service Invocation Interceptor Inbound Transformer
- 18. The actual service is performed In mule, this is generally a Java object Service invocation can also be a "pass through" 18 Endpoint (Message Receiver) Endpoint (Message Dispatcher) Inbound Router Outbound Router Outbound Transformer Interceptor Interceptor Inbound Transformer Service Invocation
- 19. Dispatching the data to all the relevant endpoints 19 Endpoint (Message Receiver) Endpoint (Message Dispatcher) Inbound Router Outbound Transformer Interceptor Interceptor Inbound Transformer Service Invocation Outbound Router
- 20. Any transformations that needs to be done on the message after a service has been performed on the message can be executed before it is put into the endpoint See Also ◦ EnvelopeInterceptor 20 Endpoint (Message Receiver) Endpoint (Message Dispatcher) Inbound Router Interceptor Interceptor Inbound Transformer Service Invocation Outbound Router Outbound Transformer
- 21. Mule has a special way of handling non-happy path processing. This is called an "Exception Strategy" but is it really just and exception path and there is very little strategy involved. There are three places you can associate an exception strategy ◦ connector ◦ component ◦ model (set for all components in a model) 21
- 22. <exception-strategy className=org.mule.impl.DefaultComponentExceptionStrategy"> <endpoint address="file:///c:/mule-class/error"/> </exception-strategy> 22 We want all invalid documents to be moved into the error folder.
- 23. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Data> <Element1>Hello World!</Element1> <Element2>String</Element2> <Element3>String</Element3> <DansInvalidDataElement>This is Dans invalid data element</DansInvalidDataElement> </Data> 23 XML Schema validation will generate an error message when it gets to the fourth invalid data element: Given the following XML Schema file:
- 24. <outbound-router> <router className="org.mule.routing.outbound.FilteringXmlMessageSplitter"> <endpoint address="file:///c:/mule-class/out?outputPattern=$[ORIGINALNAME]"/> <properties> <property name="validateSchema" value="true"/> <property name="externalSchemaLocation" value="file:///c:/mule-class/labs/07-validate/my- schema.xsd"/> </properties> </router> </outbound-router> 24 To validate the XML Schema, just add two properties: 1) tell it to validate the document 2) tell it what file to use and where to find it
