API-3
by Jeff Ortel 26 Nov '08

26 Nov '08

All, Thanks to everyone for taking the time to review and provide comments on the API-3 proposal ( https://fedorahosted.org/suds/wiki/Api3Proposal ). These comments have been very positive so the proposal has been implemented in trunk/0.3.3 (beta). The proposal was expanded to support: - Pluggable Transport - Http (basic) authentication provided in the default transport (using urllib2). Pending serious issues, 0.3.3 is on schedule for release at the end of November. Regards, Jeff

API update Proposal
by Jeff Ortel 19 Nov '08

19 Nov '08

All, There have been several requests to support named (kwargs) arguments to service methods. I've drafted a proposal to support this but it requires and API change so I'd like the suds community to review and provide comments. https://fedorahosted.org/suds/wiki/Api3Proposal Comments should be posted on the mailing list or the IRC channel. Pending general approval, this change would be included in 0.3.3. Thanks, Jeff

PATCH: don't install tests into the site-packages
by Matthew Wilson 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

The problem is that suds is putting a tests module in the top level namespace. This change to setup.py means that easy_install suds will skip the tests directory. An alternate solution would be to move the tests directory inside the suds directory.

easy_install suds installs a module named tests into the top-level site-package
by Matthew Wilson 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

I just ran easy_install suds, then went into a python session, and imported tests and got the suds tests module. Is it possible to move this module inside of the suds namespace? It is causing me problems to have a top-level thing named tests, because several other packages also want to make top-level things named tests. I'm going to send messages to all of them asking them not to put something in the top-level. Here's the transcript of the issue: $ virtualenv --no-site-packages junk New python executable in junk/bin/python Installing setuptools............done. $ source junk/bin/activate $ easy_install suds Searching for suds Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/suds/ Reading https://fedorahosted.org/suds Best match: suds 0.3.2 Downloading http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/suds/suds-0.3.2.tar.gz#md5=d54e6dc… Processing suds-0.3.2.tar.gz Running suds-0.3.2/setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir /tmp/easy_install-1Yw7Uj/suds-0.3.2/egg-dist-tmp--KWdza zip_safe flag not set; analyzing archive contents...

Problem marshalling array of complexType
by Steidten, Steffen 17 Nov '08

17 Nov '08

Hi, While suds has recently made very good progress in handling arrays, I'm currently struggling with a message, containing an array of complex type. The array seems not being marshalled correctly. The expected request must look like this: ... <listData xsi:type="urn:ArrayOf_tns4_LotListReqData" soapenc:arrayType="com:LotListReqData[]" xmlns:urn="http://server/soap/service" xmlns:com="com.amd.extpriority.data"> <element> <lotID xsi:type="soapenc:string" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">MyLot</lotID> <targetFacility xsi:type="soapenc:string" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">Facility</targetFacil ity> <blocking xsi:type="xsd:int">1</blocking> <duration xsi:type="xsd:int">1</duration> <reset xsi:type="xsd:boolean">true</reset> </element> </listData> ... Instead, suds (v0.3.2) generates an answer like this: ... <listData xsi:type="intf:ArrayOf_tns4_LotListReqData" arrayType="LotListReqData"> <element xmlns="http://server/soap/service" xsi:type="xs:string"> <blocking xmlns="com.amd.extpriority.data" xsi:type="xs:int">1</blocking> <duration xmlns="com.amd.extpriority.data" xsi:type="xs:int">1</duration> <lotID xmlns="com.amd.extpriority.data" xsi:type="tns:string">MyLot</lotID> <reset xmlns="com.amd.extpriority.data" xsi:type="xs:boolean">true</reset> <targetFacility xmlns="com.amd.extpriority.data" xsi:type="tns:string">Facility</targetFacility> </element> </listData> Note the element tag in line #2 is generated as string type. Instead it should have no attributes or be of type LotListReqData. The code to generate this message is: ... cl = Client(url) ll = cl.factory.create('ns0:LotListReqData') ll.blocking = 1 ll.duration = 1 ll.reset = True ll.lotID = "MyLot" ll.targetFacility = "Facility" aa = cl.factory.create("ArrayOf_tns4_LotListReqData") aa.value = ll ... Did I miss something, or is this possibly a bug or a missing feature in suds? Regards, Steffen

The prefixes needed special handling but then again I knew that I am not capable of writing XML parsing library so I stuck with lxml. I found lxml.objectify especially useful for handling the results of SOAP calls. --8<--- >> >> What do you think about switching the transport to httplib2? >> It is an extra dependency but it makes http handling easier. >> Or maybe one could come up with a simple interface and make the >> transport pluggable? > > Yes, I think making the transport pluggable is a good solution.

If you designated a place where contributions can go (wiki?) I could upload what I have got as a recipe. I will tweak it as needed to fit into the plugin architecture. Now the only thing left is to come up with one :-). Waldemar

SoapClient feature request
by Waldemar Osuch 11 Nov '08

11 Nov '08

Hi, Thank you for a modern SOAP client library. Prospects of talking to SOAP services from Python were very bleak before suds showed up on the horizon. The library is very useful as it is but there is one implementation detail that if changed could make it even more useful. I'm talking about the reliance on urllib2 for sending the actual http requests. Since urllib2 throws away a connection after each request is finished it makes it much harder to implement NTLM authentication on top of it. Why NTLM you ask? It is used by default on all those Sharepoint sites that seem to spread all over place. And unfortunately they will not go away anytime soon. Not at my work place at least. I have even written my own SOAP client library so I can talk them. It is inspired by your API but it is based on lxml[1] for all the XML wrangling and httplib2[2] for all the request/response/authentication/cookies stuff. It can handle a subset of WSDL and it works fairly well for the services I have to talk to. It will never will be as general as yours but it can handle NTLM authentication thanks to httplib2 and a plugin I wrote. Currently the plugin works only on windows because it depends on pywin32 being installed. What do you think about switching the transport to httplib2? It is an extra dependency but it makes http handling easier. Or maybe one could come up with a simple interface and make the transport pluggable? With pluggable transport one could use pycurl[3] and have cross platform NTLM authentication solution. Thoughts?

Re: [Fedora-suds-list] Getting a 401 before I even get a client object
by Mike Driscoll 10 Nov '08

Hi Jeff, I'm not sure what the wsdl is for Zimbra. Here's what I've found though: http://marsorange.com/archives/wsdl-for-zimbra-the-beginning This is some other user's site so I am not responsible for the garish color scheme there. The SOAP docs are here: http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/zimbra/trunk/ZimbraServer/docs/ I'm not really sure what info you need in that regard, so I apologize if I am sending the wrong information. Here's my short Python test script: <code> from suds.client import Client import urllib2 auth_handler = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler() auth_handler.add_password(realm="Test", uri="zimbra.ourwebsite.com", user="username", passwd="password") opener = urllib2.build_opener(auth_handler) urllib2.install_opener(opener) urllib2.urlopen("zimbra.ourwebsite.com") client = Client("zimbra.ourwebsite.com/service/content", opener=opener) </code> Let me know if you need more information.
