This document contains all the use cases related to the Petals BC Gateway component.
Use cases are ordered by their complexity, from the most simple to the most complex ones.
h1. Simple Use Cases
h2. Proxy SOAP over 2 Petals ESB nodes connected using the Petals BC Gateway
{tip}This use case runs with the Petals ESB Enterprise Pack 5.2.0. Its source code is available [here|https://svn.petalslink.org/svnroot/trunk/product/dev/prod/petals/petals-samples/petals-samples-gateway-soap-proxy].{tip}
The goal of this use-case is to show you how to configure the service units of BS SOAP and BC Gateway on two Petals ESB linked together create a SOAP proxy:
* to import into Petals ESB #2, an external service,
* to connect Petals ESB #1 and #2 with the Petals BC Gateway. The connection is secured using SSL,
* to export to outside an internal Petals service of the Petals ESB #1.
To secure the connection between both Petals ESBs, we rely on SSL that takes care of the actor certifications and the encryption:
* the provider domain is certified/authenticated at consumer domain level through the public part of the its certificate,
* and, the consumer domain is certified/authenticated at provider domain level through the public part of the its certificate.

h3. About the external service provider
An external service provider 'ArticleServiceContinuation' is available as [CXF webservice|https://svn.petalslink.org/svnroot/trunk/product/dev/prod/petals/petals-samples/petals-samples-soap/cxf-server] at [http://localhost:8450/articleServiceContinuation?wsdl].
To start it, just execute the following Maven command line in its directory project:
{code}
mvn clean verify exec:java
{code}
h3. About the deployment architecture
Our sample deployment architecture is composed of two Petals ESB (#1 and #2) connected with the Petals BC Gateway. In a Petals BC Gateway point of view, Petals ESB #1 is the consumer domain, and Petals ESB #2 is the provider domain. Each Petals ESB is based on a standalone Petals topology.
h3. Running the use case
h4. Generating certificates
h5. Generating the provider domain certificate
The provider domain certificate can be generated through specific keystore 'Provider Domain' containing the private/public key pair of the provider domain, as following command line:
{code}
keytool -genkey -alias provider-domain-key -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 \
-dname "CN=Provider Domain, OU=Petals, O=Linagora, L=Grasse, ST=AM, C=FR" \
-storetype PKCS12 -storepass providerdomainpwd -keystore /tmp/provider-domain.pfx
keytool -exportcert -rfc -alias provider-domain-key \
-keystore /tmp/provider-domain.pfx -storepass providerdomainpwd \
-file /tmp/provider-domain-cert.pem
openssl pkcs12 -in /tmp/provider-domain.pfx --password pass:providerdomainpwd \
-nodes -nocerts -legacy \
-out /tmp/provider-domain-private-key.pk12.pem
openssl pkcs8 -topk8 \
-in /tmp/provider-domain-private-key.pk12.pem -inform PEM \
-out /tmp/provider-domain-private-key.pk8.pem -outform PEM -v1 PBE-SHA1-3DES \
-passout pass:providerdomainpwd
{code}
h5. Generating the consumer domain certificate
The consumer domain certificate can be generated through specific keystore 'Consumer Domain' containing the private/public key pair of the consumer domain, as following command line:
{code}
keytool -genkey -alias consumer-domain-key -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 \
-dname "CN=Consumer Domain, OU=Petals, O=Linagora, L=Grasse, ST=AM, C=FR" \
-storetype PKCS12 -storepass consumerdomainpwd -keystore /tmp/consumer-domain.pfx
keytool -exportcert -rfc -alias consumer-domain-key \
-keystore /tmp/consumer-domain.pfx -storepass consumerdomainpwd \
-file /tmp/consumer-domain-cert.pem
openssl pkcs12 -in /tmp/consumer-domain.pfx --password pass:consumerdomainpwd \
-nodes -nocerts -legacy \
-out /tmp/consumer-domain-private-key.pk12.pem
openssl pkcs8 -topk8 \
-in /tmp/consumer-domain-private-key.pk12.pem -inform PEM \
-out /tmp/consumer-domain-private-key.pk8.pem -outform PEM -v1 PBE-SHA1-3DES \
-passout pass:consumerdomainpwd
{code}
h4. Starting the consumer domain
With a first fresh installation of the Petals ESB ZIP archive exploded in directory '{{consumer-domain}}', launch the default standalone topology:
{code}
~/consumer-domain/petals-esb-default-zip-5.2.0/bin$ ./petals-esb.sh
