ruby savon and wsdl namespacing - ruby

Question

I have an issue that I believe is in regards to namespaces. The WSDL can be downloaded from here: http://promostandards.org/content/wsdl/Order%20Shipment%20NotificationService/1.0.0/OSN-1-0-0.zip
When the request is generated it looks like this:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:tns="http://www.promostandards.org/WSDL/OrderShipmentNotificationService/1.0.0/" xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soapenv:Body>
<tns:GetOrderShipmentNotificationRequest>
<tns:wsVersion>1.0.0</tns:wsVersion>
<tns:id>myusername</tns:id>
<tns:password>mypassword</tns:password>
<tns:queryType>3</tns:queryType>
<tns:shipmentDateTimeStamp>2017-07-19</tns:shipmentDateTimeStamp>
</tns:GetOrderShipmentNotificationRequest>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
This results in a soap fault.
When SoapUI constructs the request using the same WSDL it looks like this
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns="http://www.promostandards.org/WSDL/OrderShipmentNotificationService/1.0.0/" xmlns:shar="http://www.promostandards.org/WSDL/OrderShipmentNotificationService/1.0.0/SharedObjects/">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<ns:GetOrderShipmentNotificationRequest>
<shar:wsVersion>1.0.0</shar:wsVersion>
<shar:id>myusername</shar:id>
<shar:password>mypassword</shar:password>
<ns:queryType>3</ns:queryType>
<ns:shipmentDateTimeStamp>2017-07-19</ns:shipmentDateTimeStamp>
</ns:GetOrderShipmentNotificationRequest>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
You can see that SoapUI has placed the username and password inside the "shar" namespace. I noticed that this is not directly listed in the WSDL or in any XSD file directly loaded by the WSDL. It gets loaded something like WSDL => XSD file => XSD file containing shar namespace. could that be the issue? How can I add the namespace to just 3 of the keys? I'm using savon 2.11.1 and nori 2.6.0
Here is the solution I ended up using:
#client = Savon.client(
wsdl: 'OSN-1-0-0/WSDL/1.0.0/OrderShipmentNotificationService.wsdl',
endpoint: #endpoint,
env_namespace: :soapenv,
namespaces: { "xmlns:shar" => "http://www.promostandards.org/WSDL/OrderShipmentNotificationService/1.0.0/SharedObjects/" },
element_form_default: :qualified,
headers: { "accept-encoding" => "identity" }
)
response = #client.call(:get_order_shipment_notification, message: {
'shar:ws_version': #version,
'shar:id': #username,
'shar:password': #password,
query_type: 3,
shipment_date_time_stamp: date
})

I think Savon doesn't interpret linked XSD files, which are used here to reference the SharedObject. Had a similar problem and the only solution I found was to manually write the definition of the namespaces.
In your case it might look something like this:
client = Savon.client do
endpoint "http://localhost/OrderShipmentNotificationService.svc"
element_form_default :qualified
namespace "http://www.promostandards.org/WSDL/OrderShipmentNotificationService/1.0.0/"
namespace_identifier :ns
namespaces "xmlns:shar"=>"http://www.promostandards.org/WSDL/OrderShipmentNotificationService/1.0.0/SharedObjects/"
end
response = client.call("GetOrderShipmentNotificationRequest") do |locals|
locals.message "shar:wsVersion"=>"1.0.0","shar:id"=>"myusername",...
end
