Hi Piotr,
my python is running …
Can you send me my own unique API Key ?
( PM ?)
Service is my success. My webtips:www.blender.org (Open source), Wikidot-Handbook.

I have it running - now I can explore all the methods and functions..
Thanks again!
PS: the example loop printing titles shows me "every second" a page title of my wiki…. :)
PPS: to explain for other user: where I was stopped for a while - is the name giving process for the "user API":
I used "s = ServerProxy('https://helmuti_pdorf:3462.....(my long key).762..@www.wikidot.com/xml-rpc-api.php')
Not sure - but I think - I have to ,make a "unique name" inside wikidot "xml.rpc-api" . if this is not neccessary - than it does not disturb

Please send me my unique key — thanks!
Please send me a key too. I'd like to take a crack at this.
Thanks,
Ed
Yes please!

I'm having good luck accessing the API with Python v2.6.1 for Windows and Mark Hammond's Python Extensions for Windows.
I installed version 2.6.1 (http://www.python.org/download/) for this reason:
Note that both Python 2.6 and 3.0 are considered stable production releases, but if you don't know which version to use, start with Python 2.6 since more existing third party software is compatible with Python 2 than Python 3 right now.
Mark Hammond's Extensions are available here: http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=78018
Any news on when we might see a working system.methodHelp or other documentation? The examples help, but it's kind of hard to figure things out with limited documentation.
Thanks,

We figured out, that what we came across is not a Zend Framework bug, rather a PHP one (we tested on 64 bit Ubuntu, and it worked well). We're not going to fix this, but instead provide better online documentation of methods.

As I try to get my feet wet in Python scripting, I have a test script you can tweak to help you get started too. I just took the samples Gabrys provided and modified them until I got some results back with my sites. I'm really looking forward to seeing some working examples from others, especially once we get write access and can really start breaking things! ;)
Unless we have a better place, I think I'll add a section on my site so we can share some code and discuss the API.
