The "Extension" part at ONVIF wsdl is always parsed into a weird dict #1472
Description
I use zeep as the main ONVIF library for my repo at nirsimetri/onvif-python.
Since I also implemented it in PHP with native SOAPClient, the results are better in PHP like this:
{ "Capabilities": { ... "Extension": { "DeviceIO": { "XAddr": "http:\/\/192.168.1.3\/onvif\/DeviceIO", "VideoSources": 1, "VideoOutputs": 0, "AudioSources": 1, "AudioOutputs": 1, "RelayOutputs": 0 }, "Recording": { "XAddr": "http:\/\/192.168.1.3\/onvif\/Recording", "ReceiverSource": false, "MediaProfileSource": true, "DynamicRecordings": false, "DynamicTracks": false, "MaxStringLength": 64 }, "Search": { "XAddr": "http:\/\/192.168.1.3\/onvif\/SearchRecording", "MetadataSearch": false }, "Replay": { "XAddr": "http:\/\/192.168.1.3\/onvif\/Replay" } } } } But, when I use zeep (python) as a library, the "Extension" section is parsed like this:
{ ... 'Extension': { '_value_1': [ <Element {http://www.onvif.org/ver10/schema}DeviceIO at 0x1fe03a83d00>, <Element {http://www.onvif.org/ver10/schema}Recording at 0x1fe03a973c0>, <Element {http://www.onvif.org/ver10/schema}Search at 0x1fe03a96900>, <Element {http://www.onvif.org/ver10/schema}Replay at 0x1fe03a96ac0> ], 'DeviceIO': None, 'Display': None, 'Recording': None, 'Search': None, 'Replay': None, 'Receiver': None, 'AnalyticsDevice': None, 'Extensions': None }, '_attr_1': None } I still haven't found a solution to this, and I'm already using the latest version of Zeep:
$ pip show zeep Name: zeep Version: 4.3.2 Summary: A Python SOAP client So, is there any PR or fix regarding this issue?
