Summary: I can't make it run Details:
First, I'm new to adwords though an old hand at python, and have some familiarity with SOAP programming and ZSI. We have working (someone else's) non API library code using SOAPpy, but we want to upgrade to using the librariy (in part because SOAPpy doesn't seem to be working with Python 2.7). I've successfully done the cURL example in the overview, so the account I'm using appears to be working in hte sandbox. I have managed to install it in a 2.7 virtualenv, including installing ZSI first[1]. And I've run the configure script, turning on all the debugging options. The library README suggests running get_unit_count.py (from the v200909 examples directory). It manages to get an auth token, but fails to get info, with a CannotSendHeader exception from httplib if I don't patch anything. For completeness, I've tried it under python 2.6 and 2.5 with the same result. And I tried the v201008 version of the example code. This particular problem seems to be related to adspygoogle/common/zsi/HttpsConnectionHandler.py's decision to gzip the request[2]. This results in endheaders being called from within a call to endheaders, after the outer call has already marked the HTTPConnection state as _CS_REQ_SENT[3]. If I patch the code to never gzip the request leads to a long wait, then one gets a BadStatusLine exception, also from httplib, in _read_status(), in begin(), called on the response by getresponse() in adspygoogle/common/zsi/HttpConnectionHandler.py. (This hasn't been tried with other Python versions yet.) My questions: Are these example code pieces still expected to work, or is the README out of date? Have they been revision tested lately? Am I jusst missing hte obvious? Is there any known problem with running in a virtualenv? Bill [1] I did have to patch PyXML to get it to install without errors. ZSI requires PyXML even if I choose to use ElementTree,, and two of its modules use "as" as a variable name, which has become a reserved word in 2.7. I made them "As" in the untarred source, then pointed pip at it. [2] The code seems to be trying hard to not decide to compress this, but it's looking for "Content-Type" in the headers, and what's there is "Content-type". [3] This code is darned hard to debug, given the adjustments it makes to sys.stdout. Stack overflow has some articles on how to get around this. Basicly you want ot look at the definition of set_trace() in pdb.py, then pass "stdout=sys.__stdout__" to the pdb.Pdb() constructtor, and otherwise emmulate set_trace(). -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and discussion group: http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
