I'm trying to write a generic weblog update notifier using xmlrpclib,
starting with technorati. What I want to do is something like this :
XML config file that would look like this:
<server url="http//whatever,technorati.org"
methodname="technoratiMethod">
<param sequence="1" source="myAttrib1" />
<param sequence="2" source="myAttrib2" />
</server>
<server .... another server
and code that would do this (pseudocode):
for serverconfig in xml.findall('server')
put params in sortedParamList
server=xmlrpclib.ServerProxy(serverconfig .attrib['url'])
server.methods[serverconfig
..attrib['methodName']](*sortedParamList)
However, technorati's xml-rpc server gives a permissions error when I
try to call MethodList(). I don't know whether or how I can call a
method on an xml-rpc server by binding the method name rather than
hard-coding it without having access to MethodList()
For bonus points: anybody know if it possible to get xmlrpclib to send
non-ascii parameter values (I know this would be a violation of the
utterly brain-dead xml-rpc spec)
