suds.TypeNotFound error

I'm trying to connect to http://data.opensolution.se/index.php?wsdl and used the following code:

from suds.client import Client
from suds.xsd.doctor import ImportDoctor, Import

url = 'http://data.opensolution.se/index.php?wsdl'
imp = Import('http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema',
location='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.xsd')
imp.filter.add('http://data.opensolution.se/')
client = Client(url, doctor=ImportDoctor(imp))

but it throws the error:

suds.TypeNotFound TypeNotFound: Type not found: '(xml, http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema, )'

I also tried playing around with what I add in imp.filter.add, e.g.:

imp.filter.add('http://data.opensolution.se/soap/OSDataService')

I started using the ImportDoctor by following info from a post from 5 years ago: SOAP suds and the dreaded schema Type Not Found error

The code found there works:

from suds.client import Client
from suds.xsd.doctor import Import, ImportDoctor

url = 'http://www.webxml.com.cn/WebServices/WeatherWebService.asmx?wsdl'
imp = Import('http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema',
    location='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.xsd')
imp.filter.add('http://WebXml.com.cn/')
client = Client(url, doctor=ImportDoctor(imp))

As you can see, this is pretty much what I started from, but it doesn't work for me.

Thanks in advance for any tips.

Solution

The following will get rid of your Type not found error:

from suds.client import Client
from suds.xsd.doctor import Import, ImportDoctor
url = 'http://data.opensolution.se/index.php?wsdl'
imp = Import('http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema')
doctor = ImportDoctor(imp)
client = Client(url, doctor=doctor)

But you'll likely run into this bug: https://fedorahosted.org/suds/ticket/239

Resulting in:

  File "/usr/local/.virtualenvs/stackoverflow/lib/python2.7/site-packages/suds/xsd/sxbasic.py", line 756, in create
    return fn(schema, root)
  File "/usr/local/.virtualenvs/stackoverflow/lib/python2.7/site-packages/suds/xsd/sxbasic.py", line 376, in __init__
    TypedContent.__init__(self, schema, root)
  File "/usr/local/.virtualenvs/stackoverflow/lib/python2.7/site-packages/suds/xsd/sxbase.py", line 95, in __init__
    self.name = root.get('name')
  File "/usr/local/.virtualenvs/stackoverflow/lib/python2.7/site-packages/suds/sax/element.py", line 234, in get
    attr = self.getAttribute(name, ns)
  File "/usr/local/.virtualenvs/stackoverflow/lib/python2.7/site-packages/suds/sax/element.py", line 404, in getAttribute
    prefix, name = splitPrefix(name)
  File "/usr/local/.virtualenvs/stackoverflow/lib/python2.7/site-packages/suds/sax/__init__.py", line 49, in splitPrefix
    if isinstance(name, basestring) \
RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object

So, perhaps try another soap client like SOAPpy

Install it with pip:

pip install soappy
