Solved: Need assistance fetching data returned by Zeep

William Bryant · ‎06-06-2022

Hello all

I'm attempting to fetch some information from a executeSQLQuery SOAP Command and I'm not able to return the text values in the xml elements that are returned.

All I'm getting is output like this: <Element pkid at 0x1cf373590c0>

Specifically I would need to return the text contained in <pkid>6adf790c-6913-7a69-5d42-efc5ddc10cdc</pkid> or any other element nested in <return><row></row></return>

I'm using the axlZeep.py listed on devnet as a reference and its using the following to return data from the getUser command:

try:
    user_resp = service.getUser(**user_data)
except Fault as err:
    print("\nZeep error: {0}".format(err))
else:
    print("\ngetUser response:\n")
    print(user_resp,"\n\n")
    fname = user_resp['return']['user']['firstName']
    lname = user_resp['return']['user']['lastName']
    print( 'Parsed user info: {0} {1}'.format( fname, lname ) )

My Code is :

from lxml import etree
import xmltodict
from zeep import Client, Settings, Plugin
from zeep.transports import Transport
from zeep.cache import SqliteCache
from zeep.exceptions import Fault
from zeep.helpers import serialize_object
from requests import Session
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth
import sys
import urllib3
import os

WSDL_FILE = 'schema/AXLAPI.wsdl'

DEBUG = True

CERT = 'tomcat.pem'

f = open('config.xml','r')
xml_config = f.read()
xml_dict = xmltodict.parse(xml_config)
xml_config_data = dict(xml_dict['settings'])

class MyLoggingPlugin( Plugin ):

    def egress( self, envelope, http_headers, operation, binding_options ):

        # Format the request body as pretty printed XML
        xml = etree.tostring( envelope, pretty_print = True, encoding = 'unicode')

        print( f'\nRequest\n-------\nHeaders:\n{http_headers}\n\nBody:\n{xml}' )

    def ingress( self, envelope, http_headers, operation ):

        # Format the response body as pretty printed XML
        xml = etree.tostring( envelope, pretty_print = True, encoding = 'unicode')

        print( f'\nResponse\n-------\nHeaders:\n{http_headers}\n\nBody:\n{xml}' )

session = Session()
session.verify = CERT
session.verify = False
session.auth = HTTPBasicAuth(xml_config_data['ccmaxluser'],xml_config_data['ccmaxlpass'])
transport = Transport( session = session, timeout = 10 )
settings = Settings( strict=False, xml_huge_tree=True )
plugin = [ MyLoggingPlugin() ] if DEBUG else [ ]
client = Client( WSDL_FILE, settings = settings, transport = transport, plugins = plugin )
service = client.create_service( '{http://www.cisco.com/AXLAPIService/}AXLAPIBinding', f'https://{xml_config_data["ccmpub"]}:8443/axl/' )
template_list_query = {
    'sql' : 'select * from device where name like \'NCDV-TATOOL-AgentCSF%\''
}
try:
    template_query_resp = service.executeSQLQuery(**template_list_query)
except Fault as err:
    print("\nZeep error: {0}".format(err))
else:
    print(template_query_resp)
    print(template_query_resp['row']['return']['pkid'])

The XML being returned from the server is:

This sample shows using <executeSQLQuery> with Zeep: https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/axl-python-zeep-samples/blob/master/axl_executeSQLQuery.py

It looks like your object parsing is a bit off here:

print(template_query_resp['row']['return']['pkid'])

where the order should be:

['return']['row']

However, 'row' is going to be a Python list (not a single row) of eTree elements, so you will want to iterate over the list to print your data row-by-row:

for single_row in template_query_resp['return']['row']:
    print(single_row)

BUT: note that since this is an adhoc query, Zeep cannot create a fully formed Python object out of the response, since the AXL schema can't know what columns you've asked for in the SQL. As a result, a single_row is not a dictionary with a key named 'pkid', but rather a Python list of element objects, so you'll need to access columns by index and get the 'text' value. 'pkid' is the zero-th column in the row, so:

for single_row in template_query_resp['return']['row']:
    print(single_row[0].text)

This is a bit easier if you restrict the number of returned fields to the minimum needed.
If you don't like extracting 'blind' by index, you can make a small function to look up the value by tag:

def get_column(tag, row):
    element = list(filter(lambda x: x.tag == tag, row))
    return element[0].text if len(element) > 0 else None
for single_row in template_query_resp['return']['row']:
    print(get_column('pkid', single_row))

Is it possible that you need to parse the XML that is returned? Here's a page from Python docs that deal with this:

https://docs.python.org/3/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html

Now that I look at it again, I think what you're getting back are elements of variables by memory address:

So that's enablefcp, which is stored at memory address 0x1b2ac5a0600.

I dealt with this issue a year or two ago, and I'm digging through my archives to see how I solved it. I'll come back and post if I can find the answer.
