Hi,
I'm playing around with the python external for PureData. (pyext)
I want to enable a patch to lookup something on the net.
I modified the "search.py" example from Dive Into Python and kind of
pasted it into the simple.py example from the pyext docs to be loaded in
a pd patch.
Loading the script in the patch works, and it receives messages and
sends messages back, so I think on the pd side I've got it set up right.
If I call my "srch" function (see script) I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "c:/pd/scripts\\searchggl.py", line 86, in srch_1
res = searchgoogle(q)
File "c:/pd/scripts\\searchggl.py", line 101, in searchgoogle
results = _server.doGoogleSearch(
File "C:\\Python24\\lib\\site-packages\\SOAPpy\\Client.py", line 470,
in __call__
return self.__r_call(*args, **kw)
File "C:\\Python24\\lib\\site-packages\\SOAPpy\\Client.py", line 492,
in __r_call
self.__hd, self.__ma)
File "C:\\Python24\\lib\\site-packages\\SOAPpy\\Client.py", line 406,
in __call
raise p
SOAPpy.Types.faultType: <Fault SOAP-ENV:Client: No Deserializer found to
deserialize a 'http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema:Symbol' using encoding
style 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/'.>
attached are the original search.py script, and my modified pd-pyext
version.
Any clues appreciated!

"""This is an example script for the py/pyext object's basic functionality.
pyext Usage:
- Import pyext
- Inherit your class from pyext._class
- Specfiy the number of inlets and outlets:
Use the class members (variables) _inlets and _outlets
If not given they default to 1
You can also use class methods with the same names to return the
respective number
- Constructors/Destructors
You can specify an __init__ constructor and/or an __del__ destructor.
The constructor will be called with the object's arguments
e.g. if your PD or MaxMSP object looks like
[pyext script class arg1 arg2 arg3]
then the __init__(self,args) function will be called with a tuple
argument
args = (arg1,arg2,arg3)
With this syntax, you will have to give at least one argument.
By defining the constructor as __init__(self,*args) you can also
initialize
the class without arguments.
- Methods called by pyext
The general format is 'tag_inlet(self,args)' resp.
'tag_inlet(self,*args)':
tag is the PD or MaxMSP message header.. either bang, float,
list etc.
inlet is the inlet (starting from 1) from which messages are
received.
args is a tuple which corresponds to the content of the
message. args can be omitted.
The inlet index can be omitted. The method name then has the format
'tag_(self,inlet,args)'.
Here, the inlet index is a additional parameter to the method
You can also set up methods which react on any message. These have the
special forms
_anything_inlet(self,args)
or
_anything_(self,inlet,args)
Please see below for examples.
Any return values are ignored - use _outlet (see below).
Generally, you should avoid method_, method_xx forms for your non-pyext
class methods.
Identifiers (variables and functions) with leading underscores are
reserved for pyext.
- Send messages to outlets:
Use the inherited _outlet method.
You can either use the form
self._outlet(outlet,arg1,arg2,arg3,arg4) ... where all args are
atoms (no sequence types!)
or
self._outlet(outlet,arg) ... where arg is a sequence containing
only atoms
- Use pyext functions and methods:
See the __doc__ strings of the pyext module and the pyext._class base
class.
