Python - Sending an argument as a struct -


i working api requires me give 3 arguments.

string sessionkey int    serverid struct date details        datetime.iso8601 startdate - optional, unless enddate provided.        datetime.iso8601 enddate - optional.  

i not sure how define struct in this case. calling api way.

>>> server.system.provisioning.snapshot.listsnapshots(sessionkey,1000078204, {datetime.now() , datetime.now()}) 

so im defining struct syntax:

{datetime.now() , datetime.now()} 

this gives me error:

traceback (most recent call last):   file "/usr/lib64/python3.4/xmlrpc/client.py", line 512, in __dump f = self.dispatch[type(value)] keyerror: <class 'set'>  during handling of above exception, exception occurred:  traceback (most recent call last):   file "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>   file "/usr/lib64/python3.4/xmlrpc/client.py", line 1098, in __call__     return self.__send(self.__name, args)   file "/usr/lib64/python3.4/xmlrpc/client.py", line 1431, in __request     allow_none=self.__allow_none).encode(self.__encoding)   file "/usr/lib64/python3.4/xmlrpc/client.py", line 951, in dumps     data = m.dumps(params)   file "/usr/lib64/python3.4/xmlrpc/client.py", line 504, in dumps     dump(v, write)   file "/usr/lib64/python3.4/xmlrpc/client.py", line 516, in __dump     raise typeerror("cannot marshal %s objects" % type(value)) typeerror: cannot marshal <class 'set'> objects 

am defining struct wrong ?

in xml-rpc (which error traceback indicates you're using), "struct" python calls "dict(ionary)", you're trying use set instead. need create dict using key names given in api documentation (i.e., startdate , enddate), thus:

>>> server.system.provisioning.snapshot.listsnapshots(sessionkey,1000078204, {"startdate": datetime.now(), "enddate": datetime.now()})
