pyControl2

Is pyControl2 out yet so I can learn to develop using SUDS and python > 2.5? I see references to this, but can't find a copy of it anywhere.
  • Given some day-job demands over the last several months I've had very little time to work on pycontrol2, although I believe I'll be able to start working on it again this week. I'll hopefully have some good news soon.

     

     

    In the meantime, I *strongly* encourage everyone to become familiar with Suds (see my example on the code share - http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iControl/SudsPythonExample.html). The reason for this is the eventually I want to expose key parts of the underlying API - in this case, Suds - so people can get to lower-level stuff if they need to bypass all of the abstractions of pyControl2.

  • Please on the reworking of pycontrol try to take into consideration being able to use py2exe.

     

     

    So we dont have to worry about the resource issues.

     

     

    thx.
  • I'm wrapping up a few last features / bug fixes and I should have an alpha release out within the month after some internal testing. Note that it's liable to change quite a bit early on, so alpha is the operative word: I'll be looking for functional feedback and obvious bugs to fix before we go into beta.
