Apache CXF – Logging SOAP Request Response Fault Messages Example


Since Apache CXF 3.1, the message logging code was moved into a separate module and gathered a number of new features.

In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to configure CXF to log the SOAP request, response and fault XML using a logging Interceptor and Feature. The example uses the Logback logging framework in addition to Apache CXF, Spring Boot, and Maven.

If you want to learn more about Apache CXF for JAX-WS – head on over to the Apache CXF – JAX-WS tutorials page.

General Project Setup

Tools used:

  • Apache CXF 3.2
  • Spring Boot 1.5
  • Maven 3.5

The setup of the project is based on a previous CXF web service example in which we have swapped out the basic helloworld.wsdl for a more generic ticketagent.wsdl from the W3C WSDL 1.1 specification.

As the sample TicketAgent WSDL does not contain a SOAP fault we will add one in the context of this tutorial.

</wsdl:definitions>

Maven is used to build the project. As the CXF message logging code was moved into a separate package since version 3.1, we need to include it by adding the cxf-rt-features-logging dependency to the project POM file as shown below.

Configure the CXF LoggingInInterceptor and CXF LoggingOutInterceptor

Interceptors are the fundamental processing unit inside CXF. For more information checkout following post on the basic CXF interceptor architecture.

CXF ships with a LoggingInInterceptor that allows logging of the received (IN) messages. In addition, for logging sent (OUT) messages, a LoggingOutInterceptor is provided. These interceptors can be added to one of the CXF interceptor providers (Client, Endpoint, Service, Bus or Binding) that implement the InterceptorProvider interface.

In order to demonstrate this, we will add both LoggingInInterceptor and LoggingOutInterceptor to the TicketAgent client as illustrated below.

Note that for SOAP faults, there are separate error handling chains. In the case of a client, this is an inbound error handling chain to which we also need to add a LoggingInInterceptor.

package com.codenotfound.client;

import org.apache.cxf.ext.logging.LoggingInInterceptor;
import org.apache.cxf.ext.logging.LoggingOutInterceptor;
import org.apache.cxf.jaxws.JaxWsProxyFactoryBean;
import org.example.ticketagent_wsdl11.TicketAgent;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;

@Configuration
public class ClientConfig {

  @Value("${client.ticketagent.address}")
  private String address;

  @Bean(name = "ticketAgentProxy")
  public TicketAgent ticketAgentProxy() {
    JaxWsProxyFactoryBean jaxWsProxyFactoryBean =
        new JaxWsProxyFactoryBean();
    jaxWsProxyFactoryBean.setServiceClass(TicketAgent.class);
    jaxWsProxyFactoryBean.setAddress(address);

    // add an interceptor to log the outgoing request messages
    jaxWsProxyFactoryBean.getOutInterceptors()
        .add(loggingOutInterceptor());
    // add an interceptor to log the incoming response messages
    jaxWsProxyFactoryBean.getInInterceptors()
        .add(loggingInInterceptor());
    // add an interceptor to log the incoming fault messages
    jaxWsProxyFactoryBean.getInFaultInterceptors()
        .add(loggingInInterceptor());

    return (TicketAgent) jaxWsProxyFactoryBean.create();
  }

  @Bean
  public LoggingOutInterceptor loggingOutInterceptor() {
    return new LoggingOutInterceptor();
  }

  @Bean
  public LoggingInInterceptor loggingInInterceptor() {
    return new LoggingInInterceptor();
  }
}

Configure the CXF LoggingFeature

A Feature in CXF is a way of adding capabilities to a Client, Server or Bus. They provide a simple way to perform or configure a series of related tasks.

CXF includes a LoggingFeature which encapsulates the creation of the different logging interceptors and then subsequently adds them to all the different interceptor chains.

Let’s add a LoggingFeature to the CXF Bus that hosts our TicketAgent Endpoint. First, we create a new instance of the feature and enable formatting of the XML message by using the setPrettyLogging() method. We then add the feature by using setFeatures() on the bus.

package com.codenotfound.endpoint;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;

import javax.xml.ws.Endpoint;

import org.apache.cxf.Bus;
import org.apache.cxf.ext.logging.LoggingFeature;
import org.apache.cxf.jaxws.EndpointImpl;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;

@Configuration
public class EndpointConfig {

  @Autowired
  private Bus cxfBus;

  @Bean
  public Endpoint endpoint() {
    EndpointImpl endpoint =
        new EndpointImpl(bus(), new TicketAgentImpl());
    endpoint.publish("/ticketagent");

    return endpoint;
  }

  @Bean
  public Bus bus() {
    cxfBus.setFeatures(
        new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(loggingFeature())));

    return cxfBus;
  }

  @Bean
  public LoggingFeature loggingFeature() {
    LoggingFeature loggingFeature = new LoggingFeature();
    loggingFeature.setPrettyLogging(true);

    return loggingFeature;
  }
}

There is also an @Features annotation that can be used on either the service endpoint interface (SEI) or the SEI implementation class. In this example, we have already added the LoggingFeature to the CXF bus but if we wanted to use the annotation instead it would need to be applied to the TicketAgentImpl class as shown below.

package com.codenotfound.endpoint;

import java.math.BigInteger;

import org.example.ticketagent.ObjectFactory;
import org.example.ticketagent.TFlightsFault;
import org.example.ticketagent.TFlightsResponse;
import org.example.ticketagent.TListFlights;
import org.example.ticketagent_wsdl11.ListFlightsFault;
import org.example.ticketagent_wsdl11.TicketAgent;

@Features(features = "org.apache.cxf.ext.logging.LoggingFeature")
public class TicketAgentImpl implements TicketAgent {

  @Override
  public TFlightsResponse listFlights(TListFlights request) throws ListFlightsFault {
    ObjectFactory factory = new ObjectFactory();

    if ("XYZ".equals(request.getStartCity())) {
      TFlightsFault tFlightsFault = factory.createTFlightsFault();
      tFlightsFault.setErrorMessage("no city named XYZ");

      throw new ListFlightsFault("unknown city", tFlightsFault);
    }

    TFlightsResponse response = factory.createTFlightsResponse();
    response.getFlightNumber().add(BigInteger.valueOf(101));

    return response;
  }
}

CXF Logging Configuration

Now that we have setup logging on both client and server we need to set the logging level of the ‘org.apache.cxf.services’ Logger to ‘INFO’ in order to have the XML SOAP messages appear.

The cxf-spring-boot-starter-jaxws Spring Boot starter automatically includes the Logback, Log4J and SLF4J dependencies. As such we just have to place a logback.xml configuration file on the classpath in order to activate Logback.

You can use the logger name to fine tune which services you want to log. The logger name is ‘org.apache.cxf.services.<service name>.<type>’. Where the service name is the name of the generated interface class (in this example "TicketAgent"). The type can be one of the following depending on whether the message is sent (OUT) or received (IN):

  • REQ_IN
  • RESP_IN
  • FAULT_IN
  • REQ_OUT
  • RESP_OUT
  • FAULT_OUT

In this sample, we only want to log the messages that are sent. In other words, we don’t want to log the messages that are received (by either client or endpoint). As such we sett them to ‘WARN’.

<configuration>

  <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
    <encoder>
      <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n</pattern>
    </encoder>
  </appender>

  <logger name="com.codenotfound" level="INFO" />
  <logger name="org.apache.cxf" level="WARN" />
  <logger name="org.springframework" level="WARN" />

  <!-- INFO level needed to log the SOAP messages -->
  <logger name="org.apache.cxf.services" level="INFO" />

  <!-- fine tune individual service logging -->
  <logger name="org.apache.cxf.services.TicketAgent.REQ_IN" level="WARN" />
  <logger name="org.apache.cxf.services.TicketAgent.RESP_IN" level="WARN" />
  <logger name="org.apache.cxf.services.TicketAgent.FAULT_IN" level="WARN" />

  <root level="WARN">
    <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
  </root>

</configuration>

Test That the CXF Logging Interceptor and Feature Are Enabled

As we also want to log faults, we extend the original SpringCxfApplicationTests class with an additional testListFlightsFault() unit test which triggers a SOAP fault to be returned in case an unknown city is supplied.

package com.codenotfound;

import static org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat;

import java.math.BigInteger;

import org.example.ticketagent_wsdl11.ListFlightsFault;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringRunner;

import com.codenotfound.client.TicketAgentClient;

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = WebEnvironment.DEFINED_PORT)
public class SpringCxfApplicationTests {

  @Autowired
  private TicketAgentClient ticketAgentClient;

  @Test
  public void testListFlights() throws ListFlightsFault {
    assertThat(ticketAgentClient.listFlights("LAX", "SFO").get(0))
        .isEqualTo(BigInteger.valueOf(101));
  }

  @Test
  public void testListFlightsFault() {
    try {
      ticketAgentClient.listFlights("XYZ", "SFO");
    } catch (Exception exception) {
      assertThat(exception.getMessage()).isEqualTo("unknown city");
    }
  }
}

Run the above tests, by executing following Maven command in the projects root folder:

mvn test

Maven will download the needed dependencies, compile the code and run the unit test cases during which the SOAP XML are logged as shown below:
