Hi *,
I'm new user interested in finding a python client library for wfs. OWSLib sounds pretty good but few documentation or tutorial are available on line. In particular at the moment I'm interested in connect to wfs servise get feature and save it locally in some usefull formats such as shape file for example. can somebody help me please?

I've seen that xml is easily obtained from wfs feature type saving it in text file after using getFeature method simply reading the object obtained as a file; something like:

featureILike = wfs.getFeature(typename=['<myTypeName>'], \
        bbox=(<xi>, <yi>, <xf>, <yf>))
out = open('<pathToMyFile>', 'wb')
out.write(featureILike.read())
out.close()

is there a way via python to convert it in shape file for example? or better to upload it in a PostGis table?

thank you very much

regards

        Manuele
