[Fedora-suds-list] Python suds client -> php service -- inputStringArray problem

Fri Sep 3 20:25:56 UTC 2010

Ok. I am a wits end here.

We have a php service, some of the methods use something in php called a
inputStringArray

I have filled out the inputStringArray's and and php does not like it. I can
send a ONE item array, but not TWO or more.

Note: In the following pay attention to the tokens and values, which are
inputStringArray's.

-------------------------
Python client code:

tokens = soap.factory.create('inputStringArray')
tokens.item = ['{token1}', '{token2}']

values = soap.factory.create('inputStringArray')
values.item = ['elmer.fudd', 'some_link.com']

dosendmail = True

#sendMailTemplate(xs:string to,
#                 xs:string from,
#                 xs:string subject,
#                 xs:string template_name,
#                 inputStringArray replace_tokens,
#                 inputStringArray replace_values,
#                 xs:boolean html,
#                 xs:boolean output, )

import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
logging.getLogger('suds.client').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

text = soap.service.sendMailTemplate(mto, mfrom, msubject, mtemplate,
tokens, values, False, True)

The SOAP message that gets sent is:

-----------------------------

php client code:

$text .= $client->call('sendMailTemplate',
             array('to' => 'my at emailaddress.com',
                   'from' => 'my at emailaddress.com',
                   'subject' => 'Test Template SOAP API',
                   'template_name' => 'ldap_usr_reset_template',
                   'replace_tokens' => array('{token1}', '{token2}'),
                   'replace_values' => array('elmer.fudd', 'some_link.com'),
                   'html' => false,
                   'output' => true));

Here is the request:

-------------------------
Comparison of python vs. php code as far as tokens and values is concerned

python:

         <replace_tokens xsi:type="ns1:inputStringArray">
            <item xsi:type="ns3:string">{token1}</item>
            <item xsi:type="ns3:string">{token2}</item>
         </replace_tokens>
         <replace_values xsi:type="ns1:inputStringArray">
            <item xsi:type="ns3:string">elmer.fudd</item>
            <item xsi:type="ns3:string">some_link.com</item>
         </replace_values>

php:

      <replace_tokens xsi:type="SOAP-ENC:Array"
       SOAP-ENC:arrayType="xsd:string[2]">
        <item xsi:type="xsd:string">{token1}</item>
        <item xsi:type="xsd:string">{token2}</item>
      </replace_tokens>
      <replace_values xsi:type="SOAP-ENC:Array"
       SOAP-ENC:arrayType="xsd:string[2]">
        <item xsi:type="xsd:string">elmer.fudd</item>
        <item xsi:type="xsd:string">some_link.com</item>
      </replace_values>

There is no error at all, but the expected results do not come back. It is
like the php service does not understand what I am sending it.

And it all boils down to the inputStringArray.

Does someone know what I am doing wrong?
