Subscription Ext Locate
The Subscription Extension API has been implemented to allow the user to create subscriptions in the discovery registry of the approval process. This means that subscription creation is not subject to the approval process; users can save subscriptions directly to the discovery registry. However, under this API, users are not allowed to save a bindingTemplate for the email address where notifications are sent. The Subscription Extension API allows the user to specify a bindingTemplate in the subscriptionExt structure in the save_subscription operation. This bindingTemplate is saved under the Notification Service Container of the operator's business entity. The Notification Service Container is a businessService with the key uddi:systinet.com:subscription:notification_service_container. This API can also be used for "read-only" registry. In that case, users are not allowed to publish their data to the registry. Their subscriptions can be saved with this API.
Data Structures Locate
The following structures are used by the Subscription Extension API:
Notification Service Container Locate
The Notification Service Container is a business service stored under the operator's business entity. It has the key: uddi:systinet.com:subscription:notification_service_container. This business service is imported together with other registry pre-deployed data.
subscriptionExt Locate
The subscriptionExt structure substitutes the uddi_sub:subscription structure in the save_subscription structure of the standard UDDI v3 API.
Operations Locate
The following operations extend the standard UDDI v3 API:
save_subscription Locate
This operation is used when creating a new subscription. If the bindingTemplate is specified, then the subscription is saved under the caller's user account under the Notification Service Container. The bindingKey is generated by the registry, the other structures of the bindingTemplate remain untouched. The bindingKeys in both the subscription and the bindingTemplate are ignored. The subscription structure returns a bindingKey referencing the saved bindingTemplate, but not the bindingTemplate itself.
Updating the existing subscription. The algoritm of the standard saving of subscriptions is extended with these steps:
If the subscription refers to a bindingTemplate under the Notification Service Container, then the binding template will be deleted. See delete_subscription
If the bindingTemplate is specified in the subscription, then the bindingTemplate is stored under the Notification Service Container
delete_subscription Locate
If the subscription references a bindingTemplate which is under the Notification Service Container, then the bindingTemplate will be deleted.
