Client.factory.create

Nathan Gageby

I am new to all of this and attempting to automate some CSS/PT creation.  I am having success when I have only an item to add/create.  When I need to create an item like a CSS with members I am running into issue. I am trying to use the factory.create component of SUDS to build everything I need to pass to CCM for a new CSS.  Sample below:

newCSS = client.factory.create('ns0:XCss')

newCSS.name = siteName + '-CSS'

This will generate the below object for me:

(XCss){

   description = None

   members =

      (members){

         member[] = <empty>

      }

   partitionUsage = None

   name = None

My issue is populating the tier below "members =".  I am not able to get that populated in the correct format to send to CCM.  This same issue repeats itself when creating a hunt group.  I have tried using the schema guide but find it less than helpful.  I am not able to factory.create(members) in any variation 'ns0:members' 'ns0:addMembers' etc...


I would like a sample of how this works or some guidance on how to determine the method to populate memberships when working in Python with SUDS.   Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Working for me:

  PW = PASSWORD

  tns = 'http://schemas.cisco.com/ast/soap/'
   imp = Import('http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/', 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/')

  imp.filter.add(tns)

  ssl._create_default_https_context = ssl._create_unverified_context

  client = Client(wsdl,location=location,faults=False, plugins=[ImportDoctor(imp)], username=UN, password=PW)

   return client

def CreateHuntGroup(client):

  client.factory.create('ns0:XHuntList')

  lineGroup = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroup')

  m = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroupMember')

  m.lineSelectionOrder = 1
   m.directoryNumber.pattern = '4007'
   m.directoryNumber.routePartitionName = 'Phones_Pt'
   lineGroup.members.member = [m]

  lineGroup.name = 'Function1s_2'
   client.service.addLineGroup(lineGroup)

I Have made some progress from the above. I am able to add a member but only in the “none” partition. When I need to specify a partition for the directory number the number is not added to the line group.

def CreateHuntGroup(client):

  client.factory.create('ns0:XHuntList')

  lineGroup = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroup')

  member = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroupMember')

  member.directoryNumber.pattern = '4001'

  member.directoryNumber.routePartitionName = 'PTid-PT'

  lineGroup.members = member

  lineGroup.name = 'Function1s'

  client.service.addLineGroup(lineGroup)

  return lineGroup



Thanks all


-—-not to confuse but the codes are for two different processes. The original post was for adding a css.  I was able to complete that but as I progressed I then found I was not able to reliable use members. In the recent code attachment I am using members to add a line group member and have again become stuck.

If you don't have to use a client factory, just add the attributes in a dict when calling the axl method.

axl = Client(wsdl_url, location=service_url, username=username, password=password)

css_kwargs = {

   "name": "suds_css",
   "members": {

   "member": [

  {

   "index": "1",
   "routePartitionName": "Phones_Pt"
   },
   {

   "index": "2",
   "routePartitionName": "Xlate_Pt"
   }

  ]

  }

}

axl.service.addCss(css=css_kwargs)

Sadly, Jive's formatting stinks, but you need to supply a list of members if have more than one.

The attributes within "member" change between methods.

For Css:

               <member>

                  <routePartitionName uuid="?">?</routePartitionName>

                  <index>?</index>

               </member>

            </members>

Compared to LineGroup:

               <member>

                  <lineSelectionOrder>?</lineSelectionOrder>

                  <directoryNumber uuid="?">

                     <pattern>?</pattern>

                     <routePartitionName uuid="?">?</routePartitionName>

                  </directoryNumber>

               </member>

And HuntGroup:

               <member>

                  <lineGroupName uuid="?">?</lineGroupName>

                  <selectionOrder>?</selectionOrder>

               </member>

Below if my lineGroup to send via client.service.addLineGroup  If I send this I will have no members.  If I however remove the line from any partition and send this without that section it will add a member.  What am I missing?

Thanks!

lineGroup

(XLineGroup){

   distributionAlgorithm = None

   rnaReversionTimeOut = None

   huntAlgorithmNoAnswer = None

   huntAlgorithmBusy = None

   huntAlgorithmNotAvailable = None

   members =

      (XLineGroupMember){

         lineSelectionOrder = ""

         directoryNumber =

            (XDirn){

               pattern = "4001"

               routePartitionName =

                  (routePartitionName){

                     value = "PTid-PT"

                     _uuid = "{7A7B4C11-F9BB-6322-CEA4-BC358AB581E9}"

                  }

               _uuid = ""

            }

      }

   name = "ThisIsIt"

   autoLogOffHunt = None

}

>>> }

Thanks!

Can you share a sample script?

This is without the dictionary shown in prior posts.

def CreateHuntGroup(client):

  client.factory.create('ns0:XHuntList')

  lineGroup = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroup')

  m = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroupMember')

  m.lineSelectionOrder = 1
   m.directoryNumber.pattern = '4007'
   m.directoryNumber.routePartitionName = 'Phones_Pt'
   lineGroup.members.member = [m]

  lineGroup.name = 'Function1s_2'
   client.service.addLineGroup(lineGroup)

def main():

  client = AXLConnect()

  CreateHuntGroup(client)

if __name__ == '__main__':

  main()

Thanks.  I made this partition using another program so maybe it has a space or something I am not capturing. suggestion on a list line or list dn type code segment I can use to populate member so I am sure I don’t typo it?

Thanks again for all the help here.
