MuleSoft Ambassador Patryk's Blog
In this brief article I will describe the problem and solution that I have lately faced. As it is a good practice not to hard-code connection data I have extracted them to external file called connection.properties. I did not expect to receive an error something like $[smtp.host]. I did not know what it can means. Below I have described what it is.
After I have passed mule Integration Professional exam I got a lot of questions from the community. What materials did I use? What are the main points to learn. What to expect on the exam. I have decided to share some of my experience with the certification. In this blog’s post you can find all materials that I have used.
Raml 1.0 introduces new concept called DataType. This fragment is used to declare type in a separate yaml file. This is not just a simplification of JSON schema to conform raml/yaml. It also brings simple improvements and syntax sugar that allows to write types in more concise form. And therefore more readable. In this article we will look at how to define own data types and reuse them in API and its implementation
In the last article, I have described a nuisance with casting to an integer value. This time we will look at huge numbers and their formatting. In addition, I will mention scientific notation. All these topics are around the number format used by the DataWeave engine. So let’s see what the problem looks like. Problem…
Errors occur all the time. All you can do is implement error handling. In this article, I will describe how to use the introduced abstraction layer in the exceptions area. Before Mule 4, developers only could access raw Java exceptions as Mule is a Java-based ESB. This led to a situation where you, as a…
Anyone who has designed RESTfull API appreciate API Kit Router available in Mule. It not only generates flows based on API definition but also route and validate messages. Our flows looks more concise and easy to read. This feature is available for both Community and Enterprise editions. For SOAP Web Services SOAP Router is available. However this time this utility works only for Enterprise Edition. Some time ago I developed a couple of services on Mule Community Edition. All services have WSDL contracts and I must say that when I now think about the implementation I would appreciate such router. So I have decided to write something similar that would work for Mule CE.
There are times when you need to get one particular element from an array, but not based on the index. This item needs to fulfill some requirements like equality and so on. In order to perform that task filter selector ‘?‘ was introduced. This is applicable for both DataWeave 1 and 2. Filter selector syntax…
I have already presented how to call Java code using messages processors with the newest Java Module for Mule 4.x. For earlier mule’s version Entry Point Resolvers were used to invoke custom Java code. However for scenarios when we would like to use custom code in DataWeave, for transformations, another approach is needed. Approach presented in this article will be more concise comparing to using message processors. It was highly extended comparing to possibilities of Mule 3.x version. Mule 3 allowed to invoke static methods. In contract Mule 4 not only permits to call static methods but also instantiate classes and access its instance attributes.
It is a good practice to monitor your service and check whether it is available and/or is performing as expected. To do this, we need to specify what the service’s health term means. In this article, I will present two different definitions. However, keep in mind that you can have your own project’s specific definition. All…
This article is about converting decimal numbers into integer ones. This may seem tricky at first. You may say that we do not need to do anything special and the DataWeave engine will handle it underneath. However, there is a nuance that you should be aware of. In transformation to XML, this may not actually…
