[Soap-Python] rpclib: anydict as a parameter question

[Dennis Fischer]

Hello,

I have question regarding soap server implementation using rpclib. I 
want to create a soap api with different methods. These methods should 
use a dict as a parameter to transfer different strings to the api. The 
server / client code are posted below. My problem is that, as seen in 
the [log] section, the variable 'params' in the [server] section is a 
WsgiMethodContext object, not the expected dict I want to use.

What am I doing wrong here? Can anyone post an example of how to pass a 
dict as a parameter using rpclib?

Thanks for your help :)

# coding: utf-8

from rpclib.decorator import rpc
from rpclib.service import ServiceBase
from rpclib.model.primitive import AnyDict


class ApiInterface(ServiceBase):

     @rpc(AnyDict,_returns=AnyDict)
     def Ping(params):

        print("[PARAMS] " + str(params))
        return { 'result' : 1 }

[Client]

#! /usr/bin/python
# coding: utf-8

from suds.client import Client

api = Client('http://api.soaptest.com:1234/?wsdl', cache=None)

params = { }
params['user'] = [ 'abc' ]
result = api.service.Ping(params)
print(str(result))

[Result]

(anyType){
    result = "1"
  }
