Flask-XML-RPC-Re (Flask-XML-RPC-Reloaded)

This is a library that lets your Flask apps provide XML-RPC APIs. A small example is included.

Install

pip install flask-xml-rpc-re

Compatible to Flask-XML-RPC

Flask-XML-RPC-Reloaded is a fork of the original Flask-XML-RPC, which was unfortunately abandoned. This version should be 100% compatible and therefore a drop-in replacement for Flask-XML-RPC.

Differences to Flask-XML-RPC

• Python 3 support thanks to @Ppjet6 (PR)
• Uses the new Flask extension naming scheme thanks to Félix Bouliane (PR)

Resources

• PyPI Record: https://pypi.org/project/Flask-XML-RPC-Re/
• Documentation: https://pythonhosted.org/Flask-XML-RPC/
• GitHub: https://github.com/Croydon/flask-xml-rpc-reloaded
• Original (abandoned): https://bitbucket.org/leafstorm/flask-xml-rpc/

Thanks to Armin Ronacher for the logo. Thanks to Matthew "LeafStorm" Frazier for creating the original Flask-XML-RPC.

flask-xml-rpc-reloaded's Issues

Abandon old naming scheme

Old Flask extensions naming schema (with "flaskext" namespace package) was abandoned by Flask developers long ago: http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/0.12/extensiondev/#extension-import-transition.

What do you think is it necessary to support that schema in this library?

Traceback info fault

Mistake at
https://github.com/Croydon/flask-xml-rpc-reloaded/blob/master/flask_xmlrpcre/xmlrepcre.py#L260

via
https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/sys.html#sys.exc_info
there is no exec_info

Update documentation

• Update doc to change the package name and import naming scheme
• Host them on GitHub pages (or python packages doc site?)

Unable to import module

Hi,

I'm trying to use flask-xml-rpc-reloaded but got this error every time I call my Flaqsk app:

Testing using python colse got the same error:

>>> from flask_xmlrpcre import XMLRPCHandler, Fault

Someone can help me in this issue ?

Regards,

upload source tarball to pypi

Mind publishing the source tarball to PyPI? I only see a Flask_XML_RPC_Re-0.1.3-py2.py3-none-any.whl available at https://pypi.org/project/Flask-XML-RPC-Re/#files

Misspell of the file name

The name of the file in the folder is xmlrepcre.py instead of xmlrpcre.py which doesn't make it intuitive. You can also add it to the init.py file, to save the hassle of specifying that file in the first place

dump_method_call signature is not python2 compatible anymore

In python2, using a default args after the *params method is not allowed, therefore the 0.13 is the only compatible version with python2.

from flask_xmlrpcre.xmlrpcre import XMLRPCTester File "/.tox/py27/lib/python2.7/site-packages/flask_xmlrpcre/xmlrpcre.py", line 239 def dump_method_call(method, *params, allow_none=False): ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

If you dropped the support for python2, please close this issue.
