Hi
The idea (at least for the contrib pysimplesoap) is to be simple, so it is
really simple: just instantiate the SoapClient ("connecting" to the wsdl),
and then make the call to the method using simple python data types.
You don't need any advanced API nor creating artifacts/objects, and if you
webservice is too complex, you can use raw xml request and responses, using
a xml helper to parse the response.
You can see the documentation from the library in the project site:
https://code.google.com/p/pysimplesoap/wiki/SoapClient
and more examples from tests:
https://code.google.com/p/pysimplesoap/source/browse/#hg%2Ftests
If you want, let me know the webservice wsdl url and what method you want
to call, I'll try to make a more concrete example.
Best regards,
