1. Introduction

This document is a part of the 1EdTech GLC Membership Management Service (MMS) v2.0 specification. The binding details how the Membership Management Service Information Model is realised as a Web Service; in the form of a Web Services Description Language (WSDL) file. The MMS binding is contained in a set of WSDL, XSD and vocabulary files. The vocabulary files are instances of the 1EdTech Vocabulary Definition Exchange specification [VDEX, 04a], [VDEX, 04b]. The 1EdTech GLC Learning Information Services (LIS) Best Practice and Implementation Guide [LIS, 11b] provides non-normative guidance on how to use the Binding and Information Model. For a conceptual overview of the LIS Specification, please see the overall services description [LIS, 11a]. For a discussion of potential applications, see the Best Practice Guide.

1.1 Scope and Context

The 1EdTech GLC MMS WSDL Binding v2.0 is used in conjunction with the following documents:

  1. 1EdTech GLC Membership Management Service Information Model v2.0 [MMS, 11] – the behaviour and data model definition of the Membership Management Service;
  2. 1EdTech GLC Learning Information Services Best Practice and Implementation Guide v1.0 [LIS, 11b] – key information on how to adopt and implement the specification.

As such the Membership Management Services specification supersedes the original Enterprise Services specifications:

  1. 1EdTech GLC Membership Management Services Information Model Final Specification v1.0 [MMS, 04a];
  2. 1EdTech GLC Membership Management Services WSDL Binding Final Specification v1.0 [MMS, 04b].

This WSDL binding takes the Membership Management Service Information Model and produces an encoding of that description in WSDL. This WSDL binding is generated as recommended by the 1EdTech GLC General Web Services documents [GWS, 06a], [GWS, 06b]. The WSDL is created using the IMC GLC Binding Auto-generation Tool-kit (I-BAT) [I-BAT, 06].

1.2 Structure of this Document

The structure of this document is:

2. Platform Specific Model of the Binding The description platform specific models in the form of the 1EdTech GLC UML-Profile service/data models representation of the 1EdTech GLC GMS specification information model. This representation is used by the 1EdTech GLC I-BAT tool to auto-generate the corresponding WSDL/XSDs;
3. Application of the Binding Guidelines Explanation of how the platform specific model is realised as the WSDL/XSD binding. This addresses how the information model is realised as a Web Service;
4. WSDL File Documentation The description of the Web Services used to realise the service model components of the binding. This part of the binding document was created using the schema documentation tool provided as part of the Oxygen 12.2 product;
5. XSD File Documentation The description of the elements used within the data model components of the binding. This part of the binding document was created using the schema documentation tool provided as part of the Oxygen 12.2 product;
6. Vocabulary Binding Using VDEX Instances Contains the description of how the set of external vocabulary files realised as VDEX files;
Appendix A - Listing of the WSDL Files This is the full listing of the MMS WSDL files;
Appendix B - Listing of the XSD Files This is the full listing of the MMS XSD files;
Appendix C - Vocabulary VDEX Instance File Listings This is the full listing of the set of external vocabulary VDEX instance files;
Appendix D - Examples SOAP Messages Examples of the SOAP messages that are exchanged to realise the service.

Figure 2.8 The PSM representation of the common data model descriptions for file storage in the MMS.

3. Application of the Binding Guidelines

The WSDL/XSD bindings have been generated using the methodology documented in [GWS 06a] and [GWS, 06b]. Only the synchronous service binding has been created. The binding files are available in two forms:

  • A single combined WSDL/XSD – MembershipManagementServiceSyncSingle.wsdl;
  • Separated WSDL and XSD files – MembershipManagementServiceSyncWSDL.wsdl and MembershipManagementServiceSyncXSD.xsd respectively.

It is recommended that only the combined form is used (many WSDL-based code generation tools do not process the 'import' instructions).

The mapping between the PIM and PSM descriptions is detailed in Table 3.1.

Port Type : MembershipManagerSyncPortType
Operation Name Input message Output message Documentation
createMembership createMembershipRequest createMembershipResponse
The 'createMembership' operation is responsible for creating a new Membership object on the service provider. The service consumer supplies the 'sourcedId' to be used to identify the new Membership.
createByProxyMembership createByProxyMembershipRequest createByProxyMembershipResponse
The 'createByProxyMembership' operation is responsible for creating a new Membership object on the service provider. The service provider supplies the 'sourcedId' to be used to identify the new Membership.
deleteMembership deleteMembershipRequest deleteMembershipResponse
The 'deleteMembership' operation deletes the identified Membership object. This means the 'sourcedId' can then be reused for another object.
readMembership readMembershipRequest readMembershipResponse
The 'readMembership' operation requests the service provider to return all of the data stored for the identified Membership object.
readAllMembershipIds readAllMembershipIdsRequest readAllMembershipIdsResponse
The 'readAllMembershipIds' operation requests the service provider to return the SourcedIds for all of the Membership objects.
readMembershipIdsFromSavePoint readMembershipIdsFromSavePointRequest readMembershipIdsFromSavePointResponse
The 'readAllMembershipIdsFromSavePoint' operation requests the service provider to return the SourcedIds for all of the Membership objects from the defined reference 'savePoint'.
readMembershipIdsForPerson readMembershipIdsForPersonRequest readMembershipIdsForPersonResponse
The 'readMembershipIdsForPerson' operation requests the service provider to return the SourcedIds for all of the Group objects for which the supplied Person is a member.
readMembershipIdsForPersonWithRole readMembershipIdsForPersonWithRoleRequest readMembershipIdsForPersonWithRoleResponse
The 'readMembershipIdsForPersonWithRole' operation requests the service provider to return the SourcedIds for all of the Membership objects for which the supplied Person with the defined Role is a member.
readMembershipIdsForCollection readMembershipIdsForCollectionRequest readMembershipIdsForCollectionResponse
The 'readMembershipIdsForCollection' operation requests the service provider to return the SourcedIds for all of the objects defined by the type of collection e.g. CourseOffering.
readMemberships readMembershipsRequest readMembershipsResponse
The 'readMemberships' operation requests the service provider to return all of the data stored for the identified set of Membership objects.
readMembershipsFromSavePoint readMembershipsFromSavePointRequest readMembershipsFromSavePointResponse
The 'readMembershipsFromSavePoint' operation requests the service provider to return all of the data stored for the identified set of Membership objects from the defined reference 'savePoint'.
updateMembership updateMembershipRequest updateMembershipResponse
The 'updateMembership' operation is responsible for changing the Membership object on the service provider by making an additive write to the previously stored data.
replaceMembership replaceMembershipRequest replaceMembershipResponse
The 'replaceMembership' operation is responsible for changing the Membership object on the service provider by making a destructive replacement of all the previously stored data. If the original object cannot be found, this operation acts as if it was a 'createMembership' operation call.
discoverMembershipIds discoverMembershipIdsRequest discoverMembershipIdsResponse
The 'discoverMembershipIds' operation requests the service provider to return the SourcedIds of all of the Membership objects that sustain the query criteria. At present, there is no defined format for the query i.e. the query is passed as a string.
changeMembershipIdentifier changeMembershipIdentifierRequest changeMembershipIdentifierResponse
The 'changeMembershipIdentifier' operation enables the service consumer to change the 'SourcedId' assigned to a Membership object on a service provider.

5. XSD File Documentation

The XSD file documentation has been produced by the Oxygen XML Editing tool.

5.1 Service Data Model

Click on the Section header to access this documentation for the data models in the service description.

5.2 File Data Model

Click on the Section header to access this documentation for the data models for the exchange of Group objects in an external file.

6. Binding of the Vocabularies

The vocabularies in the MMS are:

  • Roletype vocabulary – the set of roles that are permitted for the Membership of a Person in a Group. The PSM for this vocabulary is shown in Figure 6.1;
  • Subroletype vocabulary – the set of sub-roles that are permitted for the Membership of a Person in a Group. The PSM for this vocabulary is shown in Figures 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4;
  • Extension data-type vocabulary – the set of data-types that are permitted for extensions in the Membership data model. The PSM for this vocabulary is shown in Figure 6.5.

These vocabularies are the default set maintained under the 1EdTech GLC Vocabulary Registry [SDN11, 06].  It is the responsibility of an implementation to ensure that it is using the correct and latest versions of the vocabulary files.  Changes to the default vocabularies are permitted; this results in the creation of a new vocabulary that should be registered with 1EdTech GLC.  As part of a profiling process entirely new vocabularies may be defined to replace the default set.

Figure 6.2 The PSM representation of the subroletype vocabulary for the role teaching assistant and officer for the MMS.

Figure 6.3 The PSM representation of the subroletype vocabulary for the role administrator for the MMS.

Figure 6.4 The PSM representation of the subroletype vocabulary for the role mentor for the MMS.

Figure 6.5 The PSM representation of the extension data-type vocabulary for the MMS.
