wsdl generation - add ability to exclude portType name from generated classes and files

[brunnels]

Can you please add a generator flag to omit the portType name from generated file names and class names? Something like --omit-port_type_name or something more elegant.

    <wsdl:portType name="NetworkManagementApi">
        <wsdl:operation name="login">
            <wsdl:documentation></wsdl:documentation>
            <wsdl:input message="nas:loginRequest"/>
            <wsdl:output message="nas:loginResponse"/>
            <wsdl:fault name="error" message="nas:nasFaultMessage"/>
        </wsdl:operation>
    </wsdl:portType>

I did this with a custom Filters class and it seems to work even with reserved keywords. I didn't immediately see a way to access the wsdl portType name from the Filters class so I hardcoded it for testing but I may have missed it.

class PortTypeFilters(Filters):
    def safe_name(
            self, name: str, prefix: str, name_case: Callable, **kwargs: Any
    ) -> str:
        if name:
            name = name.replace("NetworkManagementApi_", "")
        return super().safe_name(name, prefix, name_case, **kwargs)

    def class_name(self, name: str) -> str:
        alias = self.class_aliases.get(name)
        if alias:
            return alias

        name = self.safe_name(
            name.replace("NetworkManagementApi", ""),
            self.class_safe_prefix,
            self.class_case
        )
        return name

I would prefer something more generic like a search and replace in the class names, instead of adding something so specific to the wsdl mapper and I have been thinking this one for while now since I needed recently as well but it's not in my top priorities right now.

In the mean time, we already have the aliases config that can achieve the same, it might be a bit tedious to add one entry per operation but it's there

Is there any command or debug that would output the default generator config xml for a wsdl file? Then it would be easy enough to do a search and replace on the config to customize it as required.

I am not sure what you mean but this is how you initialize a config

$ xsdata init-config

hey @brunnels can you check #624 and let me know what you think?

[tefra]

hey @brunnels I just pushed an update for the generator config to introduce a search & replace process that completely repalces the older fixed aliases. Give it a look https://xsdata.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/codegen.html

Maybe something like this could do the trick, you can also try to play with regex patterns the process is now based on re.sub https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#re.sub

  <Substitutions>
    <Substitution type="class" search="NetworkManagementApi" replace=""/>
  </Substitutions>

Thanks for the suggestion!
