This blog will help you to understand you how to invoke a WSO2 Carbon product functionality from your own client.
In WSO2 products we use client server architecture within our servers.
Any functionality available to you via WSO2 Carbon management console can also be invoked via a web service call.Those calls are called Admin Services calls.
There are three component we can see in our products to provides a particular service.
1) Service component - which provide actual service
2) UI Component - which provide the web user interface to provide the service
3) Service Stub - Interface to invoke the service generated from the service WSDL.
You can find those component in $CARBON_HOME/repository/components/plugins folder
In this example, see how to list the deployed services in
wso2esb-4.6.0.
To invoke an admin service you have to authenticate user first. then get the session cookie and invoke the services you want.
for this example we have to use two service stub classes for authentication and service listing. the relevant service stubs components as bellow.
You can resolve all the dependency by adding following maven dependency or by adding class path to plugins directory

One of the important this is that you need to figure out the service end point url that you wish to invoke. Service management service name is "ServiceAdmin". to get the service name, find the service component in plugins directory and there is a file named service.xml in META-INF directory in the bundle. It contains the service information
service end point url is like , https://localhost:9443/services/ServiceAdmin
import org.apache.axis2.AxisFault;
import org.apache.axis2.client.Options;
import org.apache.axis2.client.ServiceClient;
import org.wso2.carbon.service.mgt.stub.ServiceAdminStub;
import org.wso2.carbon.service.mgt.stub.types.carbon.ServiceMetaDataWrapper;
import java.rmi.RemoteException;
public class ServiceAdminClient {
private final String serviceName = "ServiceAdmin";
private ServiceAdminStub serviceAdminStub;
private String endPoint;
public ServiceAdminClient(String backEndUrl, String sessionCookie) throws AxisFault {
this.endPoint = backEndUrl + "/services/" + serviceName;
serviceAdminStub = new ServiceAdminStub(endPoint);
//Authenticate Your stub from sessionCooke
ServiceClient serviceClient;
Options option;
serviceClient = serviceAdminStub._getServiceClient();
option = serviceClient.getOptions();
option.setManageSession(true);
option.setProperty(org.apache.axis2.transport.http.HTTPConstants.COOKIE_STRING, sessionCookie);
}
public void deleteService(String[] serviceGroup) throws RemoteException {
serviceAdminStub.deleteServiceGroups(serviceGroup);
}
public ServiceMetaDataWrapper listServices() throws RemoteException {
return serviceAdminStub.listServices("ALL", "*", 0);
}
}
to list services
import org.wso2.carbon.authenticator.stub.LoginAuthenticationExceptionException;
import org.wso2.carbon.authenticator.stub.LogoutAuthenticationExceptionException;
import org.wso2.carbon.service.mgt.stub.types.carbon.ServiceMetaData;
import org.wso2.carbon.service.mgt.stub.types.carbon.ServiceMetaDataWrapper;
import java.rmi.RemoteException;
public class ListServices {
public static void main(String[] args)
throws RemoteException, LoginAuthenticationExceptionException,
LogoutAuthenticationExceptionException {
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "$ESB_HOME/repository/resources/security/wso2carbon.jks");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword", "wso2carbon");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType", "JKS");
String backEndUrl = "https://localhost:9443";
LoginAdminServiceClient login = new LoginAdminServiceClient(backEndUrl);
String session = login.authenticate("admin", "admin");
ServiceAdminClient serviceAdminClient = new ServiceAdminClient(backEndUrl, session);
ServiceMetaDataWrapper serviceList = serviceAdminClient.listServices();
System.out.println("Service Names:");
for (ServiceMetaData serviceData : serviceList.getServices()) {
System.out.println(serviceData.getName());
}
login.logOut();
}
}
out put will be
Login Successful
JSESSIONID=64F29C9EE6ACEA2A0DA596FB97DCC278; Path=/; Secure=null; HttpOnly=null
Service Names:
echo
Version
wso2carbon-sts
like this example , any admin service can be invoked using service stub
