Programmatically: How to implement custom Magento SOAP API clients

• Create a new module
• Create a di.xml file
• Create a SOAP client instance
• Use the client in your code

Step 1: Create a new module

Create a new folder in the app/code/local directory, and inside it, create a new file called Client.php. This file will contain the code for our custom SOAP API client. Client.php

namespace YourCompany\YourModule\Model;

use Magento\Framework\Soap\SoapAdapter;
use Magento\Framework\Soap\SoapClient;

class Client extends SoapAdapter
{
    private $client;

    public function __construct(SoapClient $client)
    {
        $this->client = $client;
    }

    public function getProducts()
    {
        $params = array(
            'store' => 'your_store_id',
            'searchCriteria' => array(
                'fulltext' => 'your_search_term'
            )
        );
        $result = $this->client->call('catalogProduct.list', $params);
        return $result;
    }
}
	

Step 2: Create a di.xml file

Create a new file called di.xml in the app/code/local/YourCompany/YourModule/etc directory. This file will define the dependencies for our module. di.xml

Step 3: Create a SOAP client instance

To create a SOAP client instance, you need to configure the soap adapter. You can do this by creating a new file called soap.xml in the app/etc/modules directory. soap.xml

	
	
    
        
            your_soap_adapter
            Magento\Framework\Soap\SoapAdapter
            
                http://your-magento-url.com/soap/?wsdl
                http://your-magento-url.com/soap/?wsdl
            
        
    
	
	

Step 4: Use the client in your code

You can now use the client in your code by instantiating it and calling its methods. For example:

	$client = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance()->get('YourCompany\YourModule\Model\Client');
	$result = $client->getProducts();
