Consuming Zanox web service in a Django project

Question

I want to integrate Zanox feeds in a Django project. Unfortunately there seem to be no client library implementations in Python.

Or are there?

What is the next best alternative to a Python library? Using the Ruby version?

You can use https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-zanox-api/ in a custom management command.

Would have been useful to say what Zanox was in your question. For those interested, they appear to be an advertising network.

Anyway, they do seem to expose a pretty simple XML or JSON feed, as documented here. It looks pretty simple to get that using urllib2 or requests and parse it using json.load.

They are very well known in Germany, so I guess my hope was for a German Python developer to have a pointer to an existing solution. – Joseph Tura Mar 05 '12 at 17:55
I will accept this answer, although I did it slightly differently (using httplib2 and eulxml). – Joseph Tura Mar 08 '12 at 14:58
