[Building Sakai] Web service and Samigo

[Earle Nietzel]

Hi,

I am trying to expose the samlite via a web service but have run into an 
issue. I have combed over the code for half a day now and have not come up 
with a good solution so i need pick someone's brain.

I have not located an api that allows you to import an assessment directly 
to a specific site in samigo, its as though your location in sakai is 
managed via the servlets (tool placement id, url) and i can't duplicate 
that in a web service.

Does anyone have any insight?

Thanks for any help,
Earle

To help I am including the web service method as psuedo code:
 

       public boolean createAssessment(String sessionid, String siteid, 
String siteproperty, String name, String description, String data) throws 
AxisFault {

                Session session = establishSession(sessionid);

                Site site = null;

                if (siteproperty != null && siteproperty.length() > 0) {
                        // find sakai site id using enterprise 
siteproperty=siteid
                        site = findSite(siteproperty, siteid);
                } else {
                        try {
                                // use siteid as the sakai site id
                                site = SiteService.getSite(siteid);
                        } catch (IdUnusedException ieu) {
                                site = null;
                        }
                }

                if (site != null) {
                        //siteToolReference(site.getId(), "sakai.samigo");

                        SamLiteService samLiteService = (SamLiteService) 
ComponentManager.get(SamLiteService.class);

                        QuestionGroup questionGroup = 
samLiteService.parse(name, description, data);
                        Document document = 
samLiteService.createDocument(questionGroup);

                        QTIService qtiService = new QTIService();
                        AssessmentFacade asessment = 
qtiService.createImportedAssessment(document, QTIVersion.VERSION_1_2, 
null, AssessmentTemplateFacade.DEFAULTTEMPLATE.toString());

 
//EventTrackingService.post(EventTrackingService.newEvent("sam.assessment.create", 
"assessmentId=" + assessment.getAssessmentId(), true));
                        return true;
                } else {
                        LOG.warn("WS SiteArchive.createAssessment(): Site 
not found - " + siteid);
                        throw new AxisFault("WS 
SiteArchive.createAssessment(): Site not found - "+ siteid);
                }
        }
