Python SOAP client example?

Question

Python

There are SOAP requests like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
  <SOAP-ENV:Body SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
    <NS1:GetVersion xmlns:NS1="urn:DCCIntf-IDCC">
      <user></user>			- имя пользователя
      <pass></pass>			- пароль пользователя
    </NS1:GetVersion>
  </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Which somehow needs to be sent to an address of the form:
http://IP:Port/wsdl
Share an example of how such a request can be implemented using Python?
Or a link to any materials on this issue?

If there are not many types of requests and the requests are not complex, then IMHO it is better to make an oak

spoiler

import requests

user = "admin"
password = "password"
endpoint = "http://soap.endpoint"

login_template = """
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
  <SOAP-ENV:Body SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
    <NS1:GetVersion xmlns:NS1="urn:DCCIntf-IDCC">
      <user>{user}</user>			
      <pass>{pass}</pass>			
    </NS1:GetVersion>
  </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
"""
body = body.format(user=user, pass=password)
body = body.encode('utf-8')

session = requests.session()
session.headers = {"Content-Type": "text/xml; charset=utf-8"}
session.headers.update({"Content-Length": str(len(body))})
response = session.post(url=endpoint, data=body, verify=False)

I myself recently tried to make zeep and suds friends with one specific API for half a day, as a result, I spat and for the remaining half a day I did everything on bare requests.

The key idea of ​​SOAP is that the spec is given by url with wsdl. There are functions, and parameters and their types. If the task is to brainstorm, then you can write the client yourself and increase the skill on the python. But for production, writing a client yourself is, well, at least not reasonable. And an example of a finished one https://github.com/mvantellingen/python-zeep.
