Tutorial: Provision OX as a Service using SOAP

Overview

OX as a Service is using the same code everybody can download and install using our various guides. Since it is a hosted service using a reseller model, the provisioning api is using the Reseller Bundle to extend the usual two administrative layers by an additional one.

Open-Xchange does also not contain a mail server in general, but requires one in order to act like a mail client. OX as a Service is using Dovecot as mail server and thus extends the usual Open-Xchange provisioning capabilities by mechanisms to manage some email specific settings.

Open-Xchange concept of Contexts

In order to provision users and groups into Open-Xchange, it is important to understand, that Open-Xchange is designed for shared hosting environments in a way that it has to serve multiple tenants, customers, domains, or however you want to name it. In Open-Xchange, we call that a Context. A context is a sealed container for users and groups. Users in a context can not see users of other contexts, not can they share data with users of other contexts (with the exception of Open-Xchange publish and subscribe functionality).

A usual scenario is to have a company, a family or in general one end customer in a context. One can also say, a context is a domain, and usually that makes sense, since a company has one domain. However, Open-Xchange contexts are not limited to one domain only.

Open-Xchange concept of provisioning

A plain Open-Xchange installation consists of two administrative levels.

root level, usually we call that oxadminmaster
context level

oxadminmaster / root

The root, or oxadminmaster account is used to

add, remove and configure filestores attached to Open-Xchange
add, remove and configure databases attached to Open-Xchange
add, remove and configure contexts

However, it can NOT add or remove users and groups, nor any other data within a context!

Instead, it can change parameters like add/remove domains, change per context filesystem quota, etc.

Context admin

The context admin is like an ordinary Open-Xchange user, except that it can add, remove and edit users and groups within Open-Xchange. In addition, it inherits shared data of users, that are deleted.

OX as a Service concept of provisioning

As written before, plain Open-Xchange only has one root account. In a reseller scenario, that would mean if we want resellers to be able to create contexts for their customers, we would have to hand out our root account. Since that is not desirable, we added another layer via the Reseller Bundle as mentioned earlier.

root level, usually we call that oxadminmaster
subadmin level
context level

root and context level don't change, except that context level can be restricted.

The subadmin account can only add, remove or configure contexts. As well as the root account, it can NOT add, remove and configure users within contexts. Contexts created by a subadmin account can not be seen by other subadmin accounts.

Provisioning

Reference implementation

The reference implementation of the European OX as a Service system can be found in the OX as a Service APS package for Parallels Automation.

Workflow

Subadmin credentials

The first requirement is to get subadmin credentials for your company. Please follow the steps documented here to get such an account.

Together with the login and password you will also retrieve the provisioning URL to be used by all SOAP requests. In addition, it is required that you give us a list of ip addresses or network(s) that should be allowed to access the provisioning system.

WSDL files

Just point your browser to the provisioning URL you got from us. You will find some services listed there. You will need the following services from that list:

https://hostname/webservices/OXaaSService?wsdl: OX as a Service specific functions
https://hostname/webservices/OXResellerContextService?wsdl: Context management
https://hostname/webservices/OXResellerUserService?wsdl: User management

and optionally

https://hostname/webservices/OXResellerGroupService?wsdl: Group management
https://hostname/webservices/OXResellerResourceService?wsdl: Resource management

Create a context

Once you have the credentials in place, you are ready to create your first context.

Creating a context requires to create the first user in that context, that is the context admin, see above.

Mandatory settings for a context are

name: name of the context
quota: file quota in MB for that context (Note: that is file, not mail!)
brandtaxonomy: must be set to the login of your subadmin account, see below

Important: In OXaaS, the name of the context must always start with your subadmin login with an underscore appended. E.g. when your subadmin login is johndoe, the all your context names must start with johndoe_!

Optional settings

framecolor: io.ox/dynamic-theme//frameColor
iconcolor: io.ox/dynamic-theme//iconColor
selectioncolor: io.ox/dynamic-theme//selectionColor
logowidth: io.ox/dynamic-theme//logoWidth
logourl: io.ox/dynamic-theme//logoURL
logouturl: io.ox/core//customLocations/logout, see this section for more information on the settings above
id: A numerical id bound to the context. When you create a context, this id will be generated. You will need that later when you manage users. The id can be looked up via the context name.

userAttributes

The settings brandtaxonomy and the other optional settings except id are part of the userAttributes SOAP field. All other settings can easily be set via simple SOAP settings. userAttributes is a hash that contains some settings that are not available in all setups of Open-Xchange. It allows to extend Open-Xchange functionality dynamically like done in OXaaS.

The hash looks like this:

userAttributes => entries => EntryArray

with EntryArray :=

[
  { key   => "somekey"
    value => somevalue },
  { key   => "someotherkey"
    value => someothervalue },
  ...
]

somevalue can be an array again, e.g.:

somevalue => entries => EntryArray

with EntryArray :=

[
  { key   => "somekey"
    value => somevalue },
  { key   => "someotherkey"
    value => someothervalue },
  ...
]

and so on

Example dump using perls Data::Dumper:

          'userAttributes' => {
                              'entries' => [
                                           {

                                                        'entries' => [
                                                                     {
                                                                       'value' => '#0000ff',

                            },

Admin User

name: login name of the context admin
password: password
email: email address of the context admin
displayname: displayname (usually surname givenname)
surname: surname
givenname: given name
lang: language, e.g. en_GB, en_US, de_DE, ...
timezone: Java timezone such as Europe/Berlin,

Timezones

To get a list of all available timezones, you can run this short Java program:

import java.util.TimeZone;

public class AllTimeZones {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        for(final String zone : TimeZone.getAvailableIDs() ) {
            System.out.println(zone);
        }
    }

}

Languages

This is the list of currently supported languages in OXaaS:

ja_JP
de_DE
es_ES
es_MX
fr_FR
it_IT
nl_NL
pl_PL
zh_TW
en_US
en_GB

Create users

Creating users requires the following parameters

name: login name of the context admin
password: password
email: email address of the context admin
displayname: displayname (usually surname givenname)
surname: surname
givenname: given name
lang: language, e.g. en_GB, en_US, de_DE, ...
timezone: Java timezone such as Europe/Berlin,
moduleaccess: the module access combination name
mailquota: the mail quota of the user in MB

Timezones and languages like documented earlier.

Valid values for moduleaccess are:

groupware_standard
groupware_advanced
groupware_premium

Other settings are not supported.

Workflow

Create the user in Open-Xchange

Use the name and password of the context admin user of the context you created earlier and define

a Credentials object.

Find the numerical id of the context e.g. in using OXResellerContextService->getData(name="contextname")

Use the OXResellerUserService->createByModuleAccessName to create users.

Note: Although there are three create methods in the SOAP user service API, you have to use the method createByModuleAccessName and specify one of the names listed above.

Set mail quota

Use the name and password of the context admin user of the context you created earlier and define

a Credentials object.

Find the numerical id of the context e.g. in using OXResellerContextService->getData(name="contextname")
Find the numerical id of the user either by using OXResellerUserService->getData(name="username") or use/store the return value of OXResellerUserService->createByModuleAccessName

Use the OXaaSService->setMailQuota call to set the mail quota for the user created above.

OXaaS specific methods

The following SOAP methods are specific to OXaaS and are NOT part of the general Open-Xchange provisioning API.

getQuotaUsage: get the overall mail quota usage of all users within the given context
createSharedDomain: create a shared domain
existsLogin: check whether user login already exists. Note: a users login must be unique within all users for your subadmin account and NOT only per context!
createDomainCatchall: create a domain catchall
getQuotaUsagePerUser: get mail quota usage of the individual user within the given context
listDomainCatchalls: list all existing domain catchalls
existsMailAlias: check whether given mail alias exists
setMailQuota: set the mail quota of the individual user within the context
deleteDomainCatchall: delete the given domain catchall

Code Examples

Java

Generating the SOAP client

Since Open-Xchange is using Apache CXF to for SOAP, we recommend to use the wsdl2java code generator from that package.

The Open-Xchange SOAP services are divided into multiple parts, which makes the code generation a little complex.

In OXaaS we need at least three services in order to create contexts and users:

OXResellerContextService
OXResellerUserService
OXaaSService

The shell script below generates the stubs of these three services into the directory defined in the CODEBASE variable. In addition, you have to set WSDLURL to point it to the provisioning URL you will get from us as mentioned earlier.

Just cut&paste the shell script below into a file and run it using the bash shell.

# 1. download apache-cxf tarball, extract it and "cd" into the directory, e.g.
#    tar zxvpf apache-cxf-3.0.0-milestone1.tar.gz; cd apache-cxf-3.0.0-milestone1
# 2. change variables CODEBASE, JAVA_HOME and WSDLURL
# 3. run this script "bash oxaas-wsdl2java"
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/j2sdk1.7-oracle/"
CODEBASE="/home/oxgit/workspace/OXaaSJClient/src"
WSDLURL="https://youroxaashost/webservices"

When you generate the code into an existing eclipse project, you should have three main packages as shown in the image below

Example Client

In the following example, the context creation and the user creation is separated into different programs.

We assume, you have created the Java client stub(s) as documented above and have it in your library path or eclipse project.

To summarize some essential requirements from the example below:

The name of each context you create must start with your subadmin name followed by an underscore _
You must set the userAttribute taxonomy at least
The context admin user must get the groupware_premium access permission

Context creation

The example below shows how to create a context in OXaaS.

User creation

The client below utilizes all SOAP services we have created so far.

The essential parts of the code are

use OXResellerContextService to find out the ID of the context you want to create users
create users using OXResellerUserService
use one of the moduleaccess values as documented earlier
use setMailQuota from OXaaSService to set each users mail quota individually
use existsLogin from OXaaSService to check in advance of a login already exists
