class RequestsTransport(Transport):

  def open(self, request):
    """ suds assumes urllib2 which doesn't have keepalives so things can go royally wrong if it doesn't
      read the entire request. Hence, read it all up and give a StringIO object instead.
      Error handling needed
    """
    verify_ssl = self.options.get("verify_ssl", True)
    r = requests.get(url=request.url, headers=request.headers, 
      verify=verify_ssl)
    return StringIO(r.content)

  def send(self, request):
    """ Just a naivistic suds.transport.Request->requests->suds.transport.Reply wrapper. This is
      missing proper error handling
    """
    verify_ssl = self.options.get("verify_ssl", True)
    r = requests.post(url=request.url, data=request.message, headers=request.headers,
      verify=verify_ssl)
    return Reply(code=r.status_code, headers=r.headers, message=r.content)

This is great work, it looks like it will be perfect for a project at work. Do you have an example of how it should be used in conjunction with suds? It looks like the open and send methods are expecting a 'request' object, so are you to use suds to create the requests object then send it to the methods of RequestsTransport subclass?

I tried this gist with a suds 0.4 and it failed.

I tried lots of SUDS versions and forks, and finally got to find one that works with proxies, https and authenticated services, find it here:
