I'm trying to use the Zimbra SOAP API from Python to programmatically modify & cleanup my contacts but I'm having trouble getting started.
What I have so far is:
from SOAPpy import SOAPProxy
url = 'https://zimbra/service/soap'
auth = {"account": "xxxxx", "password": "xxxxx"}
zimbra = SOAPProxy(url, 'urn:zimbra')
zimbraAuth = SOAPProxy(url, "urn:zimbraAccount")
zimbraMail = SOAPProxy(url, "urn:zimbraMail")
response = zimbraAuth.AuthRequest(**auth)
authToken = response.authToken
I've logged in successfully, but can't pass this authToken in further requests.
My understanding is that any zimbraMail requests need to have a header in the urn:zimbra namespace with the authToken set there, but being new to SOAP I have no idea how to do so.
I'm not married to using SOAPpy so any example code for another library would be well appreciated.
I'd like to nod in the direction of Python-Zimbra, a python library for Zimbra, which does all that for you.
There is also an higher level, and pythonic library: zimsoap.
Using raw SOAP or python-zimbra or zimsoap depends realy on what level of flexibility/ease you need (although I will not suggest using SOAP directly, as python-zimbra can issue any possible SOAP request to zimbra.

I am trying to connect to the api as explained in http://api.instatfootball.com/ , It is supposed to be something like the following get /[lang]/data/[action].[format]?login=[login]&pass=[pass]. I know the [lang], [action] and [format] I need to use and I also have a login and password but donĀ“t know how to access to the information inside the API.
If I write the following code:
import requests
r = requests.get('http://api.instatfootball.com/en/data/stat_params_players.json', auth=('login', 'pass'))
r.text
with the actual login and pass, I get the following output:
{"status":"error"}
This API requires authentication as parameters over an insecure connection, so be aware that this is highly lacking on the API part.
import requests
username = 'login'
password = 'password'
base_url = 'http://api.instatfootball.com/en/data/{endpoint}.json'
r = requests.get(base_url.format(endpoint='stat_params_players'), params={'login': username, 'pass': password})
data = r.json()
print(r.status_code)
print(r.text)
You will need to make a http-request using the URL. This will return the requested data in the response body. Depending on the [format] parameter, you will need to decode the data from xml / json to a native Python object.
As rdas already commented, you can use the request library for python (https://requests.readthedocs.io/en/master/). You will also find some code samples there. It will also do proper decoding of JSON data.
If you want to play around with the API a bit, you can use a tool like Postman for testing and debugging your requests. (https://www.postman.com/)
i quite new to pyhton. I just try a simple way to get an HTTP response with python to a simple get from the sonar Web API
i use the request library and try a simple use :
project = requests.get(url=Sonar_Api_Projects_Search, params=param_Projects, verify=False, headers={'Authorization': 'token {}'.format(token)})
the request is well formatted and work fine when i use it in e web browser.
but as a response i get this strange output :
{"err_code":500,"err_msg":"undefined method empty?' for

Can someone help me ?

Direct use of requests never worked for me.
I do the following and it is working fine:
(below code is to list projects in Sonar)
import json , requests, pprint
url = 'http://sonar_url:9000/api/projects/search'
myToken = 'fa2377941a95125443f4efade615512jjkd221211a48'
session = requests.Session()
session.auth = myToken, ''
call = getattr(session, 'get')
res = call(url)
print(res.status_code)
binary = res.content
output = json.loads(binary)
pprint.pprint(output)
...
#Parse json result
In Sonarqube 8.9, requests is working for me.
First, you should should create an API token. Per the docs:
This is the recommended way. Benefits are described in the page User Token. The token is sent via the login field of HTTP basic authentication, without any password.
The docs go on to provide a weird curl usage example:
# note that the colon after the token is required in curl to set an empty password
curl -u THIS_IS_MY_TOKEN: https://sonarqube.com/api/user_tokens/search
In requests, this looks something like this:
response = requests.get(
"http://your-sonar-instance.com/api/blah",
auth=HTTPBasicAuth("Some Sonarqube API token", "")
)
return json.loads(response.text)
See https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/extend/web-api/ for API details.
Also note that auth=HTTPBasicAuth("token", "") seems to behave differently from auth=HTTPBasicAuth("token", None).
I know its an old question. Thankfully there is a wrapper library available now - https://github.com/shijl0925/python-sonarqube-api. It works quite well and is easy to setup.
If possible people from Sonarsource could make it the official one so that more people start using it and it gets maintained in the future too.
Scope:
I am currently trying to write a Web scraper for this specific page. I have a pretty strong "Web Crawling" background using C#, but this httplib is beating me off.
Problem:
When trying to make a Http Get request for the page specified above I get a "Moved Permanently", that points to the very same URL. I can make a request using the requests lib, but I want to make it work using httplib so I can understand what I am doing wrong.
Code Sample:
I am completely new to Python, so any wrong language guideline or syntax is C#'s fault.
import httplib
# Wrapper for a "HTTP GET" Request
class HttpClient(object):
def HttpGet(self, url, host):
connection = httplib.HTTPConnection(host)
connection.request('GET', url)
return connection.getresponse().read()
# Using "HttpClient" class
httpclient = httpClient()
# This is the full URL I need to make a get request for : https://420101.com/strain-database
httpResponseText = httpclient.HttpGet('www.420101.com','/strain-database')
print httpResponseText
I really want to make it work using the httplib library, instead of requests or any other fancy one because I feel like I am missing something really small here.
The problem i've had too little or too much caffeine in my system.
To get a https, I needed the HTTPSConnection class.
Also, there is no 'www' in the address I wanted to GET. So, it shouldn't be included in the host.
Both of the wrong addresses redirect me to the correct one, with the 301 error code. If I were using requests or a more full featured module, it would have automatically followed the redirect.
My Validation:
c = httplib.HTTPSConnection('420101.com')
c.request("GET", "/strain-database")
r = c.getresponse()
print r.status, r.reason
200 OK
i'm trying to comunicate with a webserver with python. I'm using the suds library. Actually i'm pretty new with this.
Usually, to comunicate with this WebServer a send a xml message and i get a response. So this is what i would like to do with python.
Here's the code i wrote:
from suds.client import Client
with open("PATH","r") as f:
file=f.read()
url='URL'
client = Client(url)
httpHeaders = {'Content-Type': 'text/xml', 'SOAPAction': 'ACTION'}
client.set_options(headers=httpHeaders)
Now i don't know how to make the request. I tried this:
print client.service.test(__inject={'msg': file})
But i got the error:
Exception: No services defined
The problem seems clear, but i don't know haw to procede. Any suggestion ?
Is it possible to use Python's requests library to send a SOAP request?
It is indeed possible.
Here is an example calling the Weather SOAP Service using plain requests lib:
import requests
url="http://wsf.cdyne.com/WeatherWS/Weather.asmx?WSDL"
#headers = {'content-type': 'application/soap+xml'}
headers = {'content-type': 'text/xml'}
body = """<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:ns0="http://ws.cdyne.com/WeatherWS/" xmlns:ns1="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<SOAP-ENV:Header/>
<ns1:Body><ns0:GetWeatherInformation/></ns1:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>"""
response = requests.post(url,data=body,headers=headers)
print response.content
Some notes:
The headers are important. Most SOAP requests will not work without the correct headers. application/soap+xml is probably the more correct header to use (but the weatherservice prefers text/xml
This will return the response as a string of xml - you would then need to parse that xml.
For simplicity I have included the request as plain text. But best practise would be to store this as a template, then you can load it using jinja2 (for example) - and also pass in variables.
For example:
from jinja2 import Environment, PackageLoader
env = Environment(loader=PackageLoader('myapp', 'templates'))
template = env.get_template('soaprequests/WeatherSericeRequest.xml')
body = template.render()
Some people have mentioned the suds library. Suds is probably the more correct way to be interacting with SOAP, but I often find that it panics a little when you have WDSLs that are badly formed (which, TBH, is more likely than not when you're dealing with an institution that still uses SOAP ;) ).
You can do the above with suds like so:
from suds.client import Client
url="http://wsf.cdyne.com/WeatherWS/Weather.asmx?WSDL"
client = Client(url)
print client ## shows the details of this service
result = client.service.GetWeatherInformation()
print result
Note: when using suds, you will almost always end up needing to use the doctor!
Finally, a little bonus for debugging SOAP; TCPdump is your friend. On Mac, you can run TCPdump like so:
sudo tcpdump -As 0
This can be helpful for inspecting the requests that actually go over the wire.
The above two code snippets are also available as gists:
SOAP Request with requests
SOAP Request with suds
Adding up to the last answer, make sure you add to the headers the following attributes:
headers={"Authorization": f"bearer {token}", "SOAPAction": "http://..."}
The authorization is meant when you need some token to access the SOAP API,
Otherwise, the SOAPAction is the action you are going to perform with the data you are sending in,
So if you don't need Authorization, then you could pop that out of the headers,
That worked pretty fine for me,
