Stage 1 | Creating a new service on webMethods Integration Server. During this stage, you create the new service on the webMethods Integration Server where you will do your development and debugging. For information about creating a flow service, see
Creating a New Flow Service. For information about creating a Java service, see
Creating a Java Service. |
Stage 2 | Adding logic to the new service. During this stage, you specify the work that you want the service to perform. If you are building a flow service, you add logic by inserting flow steps into the service. For more information, see
Building Flow Services. If you are building a Java service, you add logic to the source code for the service. For more information, see
Building Java Services. |
Stage 3 | Declaring the service signature. During this stage, you define the service’s inputs and outputs. For information about this stage, see
About the Service Signature. |
Stage 4 | Mapping pipeline data. If you are building a flow service, during this stage, you route input and output variables between services that are invoked in the flow. For information about this stage, see
Mapping Data in Flow Services. |
Stage 5 | Specifying the run-time parameters. During this stage, you assign parameters that configure the run-time environment for this service. For information about this stage, see
About Service Run-Time Parameters. |
Stage 6 | Configure the circuit breaker. During this stage, you determine whether you need to enable and configure a circuit breaker for the service which can prevent a failure in one part of the system from cascading to the rest of the system. For more information about this stage, see
Using a Circuit Breaker with a Service. |
Stage 7 | Formatting service output. During this stage you can create an output template to format the service output. For information about this stage, see
About Service Output Templates or refer to the Dynamic Server Pages and Output Templates Developer’s Guide. |
Stage 8 | Debugging. During this stage you can use the tools provided by Designer to run and debug your flow service. For information about this stage, see
Running Services,
Debugging Flow Services, and
Debugging Java Services. |
