adding new services to jabaws

Jalview Discussion
1

Hello,

We would like to add additional services to our jabaws installation.

Would it be possible to get access to the source code for jabaws so
that we can model our implementation on the services that are
available out of the box? Do you have any tips for implementing and
adding new web services to jabaws?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks,

Hello Joni - it is good to see that you are progressing with Jabaws.

JABAWS is open source - you can download everything at http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/jabaws/download.html (although the link isn't obvious ... you need to scroll to the bottom of the page and click the '+' to open the source download panel).

You can also find it at Google Code Archive - Long-term storage for Google Code Project Hosting.

Peter wrote some guidelines for developing services for JABAWS, which are included in the source distribution :
http://code.google.com/p/jabaws/source/browse/trunk/jabaws/how_to_add_new_webservice.txt

These guidelines cover the steps needed to add or extend the server and its command-line client. If you want Jalview to be able to access your service, you'll also need to take a look at how it uses the JABAWS client to discover, test, and work with services, and then extend it as well.

Jim.
