wfs-t server implementation with geotools java

Question

I need to read a WFS transaction from the client (OpenLayers) and do the appropriate action. I want to use geoTools! Is there a way to implement a wfs server?

Suppose I have a Transacion like this:

<wfs:Transaction service=”WFS” version=”1.0.0″
 xmlns:myns=”http://www.domain.com/ns“
 xmlns:ogc=”http://www.opengis.net/ogc”
 xmlns:wfs=”http://www.opengis.net/wfs”>
  <wfs:Update typeName=”myns:LayerToUpdate“>
   <wfs:Property>
       <wfs:Name>propertyToUpdate</wfs:Name>
       <wfs:Value>updatedValue</wfs:Value>
   </wfs:Property>
   <ogc:Filter>
       <ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
           <ogc:PropertyName>constraintProperty</ogc:PropertyName>
           <ogc:Literal>constraintValue</ogc:Literal>
       </ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
   </ogc:Filter>
 </wfs:Update>
</wfs:Transaction>

It will be appreciated If you suggest another way to do that!

Using code from GeoServer as insipartion might be more appropriate place to start. It is built using geotools extensively and already implements a WFS Server. — Brett Walker, May 26 '15 at 12:58

HttpServletRequest request=...;
org.geotools.xml.parser.Parser parser = new Parser(new org.geotools.wfs.v1_1.WFSConfigration());
TransactionType tt = (TransactionType) parser.parse(request.getReader());
InsertElementType insert1 = (InsertElementType) tt.getInsert().get(0);
