+[![Python Tests](https://github.com/mvantellingen/python-zeep/workflows/Python%20Tests/badge.svg)](https://github.com/mvantellingen/python-zeep/actions?query=workflow%3A%22Python+Tests%22)

+
+A Python SOAP client
+
+## Highlights:
+- Compatible with Python 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 and PyPy3
+- Built on top of lxml, requests, and httpx
+- Support for Soap 1.1, Soap 1.2, and HTTP bindings
+- Support for WS-Addressing headers
+- Support for WSSE (UserNameToken / x.509 signing)
+- Support for asyncio using the httpx module
+- Experimental support for XOP messages
+
+Please see the [documentation](http://docs.python-zeep.org/) for more information.
+
+## Status
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> I consider this library to be stable. Since no new developments happen around the SOAP specification, it won't be updated that much. Good PRs which fix bugs are always welcome, however.
+
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install zeep
+```
+
+Zeep uses the lxml library for parsing XML. See [lxml installation requirements](https://lxml.de/installation.html).
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+from zeep import Client
+
+client = Client('tests/wsdl_files/example.rst')
+client.service.ping()
+```
+
+To quickly inspect a WSDL file, use:
+
+```bash
+python -m zeep <url-to-wsdl>
+```
+
+Please see the [documentation](http://docs.python-zeep.org) for more information.
+
+# Support
+
+If you want to report a bug, please first read [the bug reporting guidelines](http://docs.python-zeep.org/en/master/reporting_bugs.html).
+
+Please only report bugs, not support requests, to the GitHub issue tracker.
