Hello Group,
I am newbie to python and getting my way around. However, my first project
that introduced me to the language deals with SOAP requests.
Before going any further, there's a project called "suds" which
implements a soap client. If the service you're consuming exposes a WSDL
document, it's very easy to get started with suds. Here's its home page:
https://fedorahosted.org/suds/
The server I communicate with basically sends me 2 soap responses; One with
a requestIdentifier which I should use to query the delivery status of the
message originally sent. Therefore, my main.py script already calls the
client.last_received() which contains 1 value for requestIdentifier.
I have another script getDelivery.py; In this script I need to pass 6
parameters which we used in the main.py script and add the
requestIdentifier parameter - total 7 paramters.
I want to call the getDelivery.py script at the end of main.py script after
the client.last_received().
q1) How do I get the requestIdentifier parameter that is received through
the client.last_received() method call?
q2) How do I pass these 7 parameters to the method call from the main.py
script?
q3) And how do I receive these passed parameters in the getDelivery.py
script?
It's a bit difficult to answer as you didn't provide any source code,
but let me try.
First, please modify the code inside getDelivery.py to be inside a
function. for argument's sake, let's say it's called 'some_function'.
Then, in the main.py, you can import the function and call it. Assuming
getDelivery.py and main.py are in the same directory, this should work:
from getDelivery import some_function
def main():
# some code that defines the 6 other parameters somehow
# (...)
last = client.last_received
some_function(param1, param2, param3, param4, param5, param6, last)
I am conversant with the php post/get but still having trouble doing the
same in python. I've checked on urllib2 and request modules but still
having trouble understanding their implementation.
First, just to confirm: urllib2 is a http client library. It's not a
http server.
The most fashionable http client library in the python world nowadays is
requests: http://www.python-requests.org/
It's pretty easy to use and actually, it wraps urllib2. You can give it
a try.
I hope that helps.
Best regards,
Burak
PS: If you're not sure about how to install Python packages, I'm sure a
quick google would turn return a lot of resources.
