Hi Lukasz,

I have recently began using rpclib, and as a beginner - I think I will be
able to provide some tips that will help you get started.


First of all, it is not clear from your message what you are trying to do:
- a client, i.e. connect to an existing server and call its functions, OR
- a server, i.e. let others connect to your server and call your functions


I think you want a client; in that case you should use suds:
https://fedorahosted.org/suds/

If you want to build a server, then rpclib/spyne is the right tool for the
job. You can also give a try to Ladon - it is very friendly with beginners
(I managed to set it up and create a server very quickly).

Eventually I chose rpclib because Burak provided very fast feedback and
because rpclib offered some features I needed.


Using suds is very easy, I attached an example I use myself. It connects to
a locally hosted SOAP server; the example assumes that I know the name of
the function I want to call, and that I know all of its arguments - which I
pass via a dictionary.

Otherwise, you can also use the factory.create function, which will
construct an object for you, and later you just fill in the values, like
this:

c = Client('http://localhost:7789/?wsdl')
a = c.factory.create('ns1:PhysicalPersonDataRequest')
a.lastName = u'Samurai'
a.firstName = u'Jack'
a.birthDate = u'1945-12-31'
a.idnp = u'1234567890123'
a.icSerial = u'A'
a.icNumber = u'12345'

result = c.service.RegisterPhysicalPerson(a)


I hope this helps.
