This code does not work! Please help! Is XMLRPC or SOAP4R better for the initial talking to MOBY.
require 'rubygems' require 'soap/rpc/driver' require 'xmlrpc/client' class Foo end module Bio module Moby module Client class Central URI = 'http://biomoby.org/MOBY/Central' def initialize mobycentral,ontologyser = getDefaultCentral p mobycentral p ontologyser @driver = SOAP::RPC::Driver.new(mobycentral,URI) @driver.wiredump_dev = STDOUT @driver2 = XMLRPC::Client.new2(URI) begin p @driver2.call('retrieveServiceNames') rescue RuntimeError => e puts "error #{e.inspect}" end @driver.add_method_with_soapaction( "findService", "http://biomoby.org/MOBY/Central#findService", "args" ) end def getDefaultCentral require 'httpclient' client = HTTPClient.new mobycentral = client.head('http://biomoby.org/mobycentral').header['location'] ontologyser = client.head('http://biomoby.org/ontologyserver').header['location'] return mobycentral,ontologyser end def findService(keyword) message = "<findservice>\n" message += "<authoritative></authoritative>" message += "<serviceName>#{keyword}</serviceName>" message += "<expandObjects>0</expandObjects>" message += "<expandServices>0</expandServices>" message += "</findservice>" #@driver.findService(message) p @driver2.call('findService',message) end end end end end Bio::Moby::Client::Central.new.findService('getGoTerm')
