webMethods CloudStreams Provider for Google Maps

This project provides a sample webMethods CloudStreams Provider Project for Google Maps. The following APIs are available:

• Directions: The Google Maps Directions API is a service that calculates directions between locations. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/directions
• Distance matrix: The Google Maps Distance Matrix API is a service that provides travel distance and time for a matrix of origins and destinations, based on the recommended route between start and end points. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/distance-matrix
• Elevation: The Google Maps Elevation API provides elevation data for all locations on the surface of the earth, including depth locations on the ocean floor (which return negative values). https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/elevation
• Geocode: The Google Maps Geocoding API is a service that provides geocoding and reverse geocoding of addresses. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding
• Gelocation: The Google Maps Geolocation API returns a location and accuracy radius based on information about cell towers and WiFi nodes that the mobile client can detect. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geolocation
• Timezone:The Google Maps Time Zone API provides time offset data for locations on the surface of the earth. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/timezone

Requirements

The project was developed and tested on the following installation:

1. Integration Server 9.12
2. CloudStreams Server 9.12
3. Software AG Designer 9.12 with Service Development and CloudStreams Development

Quick start

To install the project on your local development environment follow these steps.

Prepare CloudStreams connection

1. In Software AG Designer open Window > Preferences.
2. Navigate to Software AG > CloudStreams Servers.
3. Add your local Integration Server. If there is already an entry make sure username and password are correct by clicking the Test button.

Import CloudStreams Provider Project

1. In Software AG Designer switch to the CloudStreams Development perspective.
2. Select File > Import and choose Software AG > CloudStreams Provider Project. Click Next.
3. Select the root of this repository as the Root Directory.
4. Select the Google Maps project.
5. Check Copy project into workspace.
6. Click Finish.
7. Expand the newly imported project.
8. Right-click com.softwareag.googleMaps and select Deploy.

Import Integration Server packages

The CloudStreams Provider Project does not contain neccessary doctypes.

1. Copy GoogleMaps.zip and GoogleMapsTests.zip to <install_dir>/IntegrationServer/instances/<instance>/replicate/inbound.
2. Open Integration Server Administration in your browser.
3. Install both packages with Install Inbound Releases in Package Management.

Add Google API Key and activate connections

To access Google APIs an API key is neccessary. Generate your API key here: https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials. Make sure all Google Maps APIs are enabled in your library by clicking and enabling each of them (https://console.developers.google.com/apis/library).

1. Open Integration Server Administration in your browser.
2. Navigate to Solutions > CloudStreams > Providers > GoogleMaps.
3. Select GoogleMaps from the Connector List.

You will find two (disabled) connections: GoogleMapsTest:apiConnection and GoogleMapsTest:mapsConnection. You need to modify both connections:

1. Click the Edit button of the connection.
2. Enter your Google API key in APIKey-field and save the changes.
3. Enable the connection.

Run tests

1. In Software AG Designer switch to the Service Development perspective.
2. Expand the GoogleMapsTests package.
3. Run the *Test flow services you find in the subsequent directories.
