This library is still under construction. Beta testers are more than welcome.

Nano

A light Web Service client framework targeting Android platform

##Feature Highlight

1. Support WSDL driven development, code generator tool is provided to auto-genearte strongly typed proxy from WSDL.
2. Support SOAP 1.1/1.2 and XML based web service.
3. Support automatic SOAP/XML to Java object binding, performance is comparable to Android native XML parser.
4. Built on popular and mature loopj async http client library for Android.
5. Has been verified with industrial grade Web Service like Amazon ECommerce Web Serivce and eBay Finding/Shopping/Trading Web Service.
6. Support asynchronous service invocation, flexible HTTP/SOAP header setting, timeout setting, encoding setting, logging, etc.
7. Light-weight, the library jar is less than 150K, no external dependencies on Android platform.
8. Besides Web Service, can also be used as a standalone XML and JSON binding framework.

The Big Picture

##How to Use You have a few options:

1. Direct jar reference
   Download latest 0.7.0 release

2. Include the whole source of Nano into your project

3. Maven reference

	<dependency>
	  <groupId>com.leansoft</groupId>
	  <artifactId>nano</artifactId>
	  <version>0.7.0</version>
	</dependency>
	
	<repository>
	  <id>github.release.repo</id>
	  <url>https://raw.github.com/bulldog2011/bulldog-repo/master/repo/releases/</url>
	</repository>

After including Nano into your project, please make sure to add following user permissions in the AndroidManifest.xml file for network access:

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

##WSDL Driven Development Flow

1. Generate Java proxy from WSDL
2. Create new Android project, add Nano runtime and generated proxy into your project
3. Implement appliction logic and UI, call proxy to invoke web service as needed.

##Example Usage After the service proxy is generated from wsdl, service invocation through Nano runtime is extremely simple:

	// Get shared client
	NumberConversionSoapType_SOAPClient client = NumberConversionServiceClient.getSharedClient();
	client.setDebug(true); // enable soap message logging
	
	// build request
	NumberToWords request = new NumberToWords();
	try {
		String number = ((EditText)findViewById(R.id.numerInputText)).getText().toString();
		request.ubiNum = new BigInteger(number);
	} catch (NumberFormatException ex) {
		Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Invalid integer number", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
		return;
	}
	
	client.numberToWords(request, new SOAPServiceCallback<NumberToWordsResponse>() {

		@Override
		public void onSuccess(NumberToWordsResponse responseObject) { // success
			Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, responseObject.numberToWordsResult, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
		}

		@Override
		public void onFailure(Throwable error, String errorMessage) { // http or parsing error
			Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, errorMessage, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
		}

		@Override
		public void onSOAPFault(Object soapFault) { // soap fault
			Fault fault = (Fault)soapFault;
			Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, fault.faultstring, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
		}
		
	});
