Component Description (under construction)
The Service Registry Plugin consists of the following components:
- ServiceResolver - resolves information about the service endpoints for specified service using endpoint document providers and endpoint extractors
- EndpointDocumentProvider - is responsible for retrieval of service related information (e.g. service descriptions) from different kinds of location
- EndpointExtractor - extracts endpoint parts (endpoint address, transport protocol) from the service description document
The endpoint resolution process is illustrated by the folowing scenario:
- First ServiceResolver gets all registered EndpointDocumentProviders and chooses one with highest priority. Different implementation of the EndpointDocumentProvider can be used to retrieve the service descriptions from local filesystem or from a remote registry. The chosen provider is then queried for service description documents corresponding to the specified service interface.
