I have a working application that accepts SOAP requests, processes the requests, forwards the SOAP request to an API, processes the response, and then forwards the response to the client.
I'm trying to change this application so that it will be JSON between my application and the client but still use SOAP between API and my application
Now, it can successfully accept JSON requests from client and send/receive SOAP with API. However, all the responses to client are empty.
The only case that I receive a non-empty response is when there are validation errors with my JSON request.
Here are some code that might be relevant
app = Application([MyServer],
MY_NAMESPACE,
in_protocol=JsonDocument(validator='soft'),
out_protocol=JsonDocument())
application_server = csrf_exempt(MyDjangoApplication(app))

class MyDjangoApplication(DjangoApplication):
def __call__(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
retval = self.HttpResponseObject()
def start_response(status, headers):
# Status is one of spyne.const.http
status, reason = status.split(' ', 1)
retval.status_code = int(status)
for header, value in headers:
retval[header] = value
environ = request.META.copy()
if request.method == 'POST':
response = self.handle_rpc(environ, start_response)
else:
home_path = reverse('proxy:list_method')
uri = MY_ENDPOINT_URL or request.build_absolute_uri(home_path)
# to generate wsdl content
response = self._WsgiApplication__handle_wsdl_request(environ, start_response, uri)
if request.path == home_path and _is_wsdl_request(environ):
fn = None
elif 'method_name' in kwargs:
fn = view_method
else:
fn = list_method
if fn:
return fn(request, app=self, *args, **kwargs)
self.set_response(retval, response)
return retval

Note: Most of these definitions have been simplified (I have removed lines which I think are not relevant)
