Has anyone been able to get the suds soap library to work with the NetSuite WSDL?

Question

Has anyone been able to get the suds soap library to work with the NetSuite WSDL? I get this error when I try to create a client.

from suds.client import Cli

Yes, suds can connect to NetSuite, but it takes a long time to process the WSDL.

Here's some sample code:

# Open NetSuite Session
wsdlNetSuite = 'https://webservices.netsuite.com/wsdl/v2010_1_0/netsuite.wsdl'
client = Client(wsdlNetSuite)

# Login
passport = client.factory.create('ns4:Passport')
passport.email = 'username@web.com'
passport.password = 'ABC123'
passport.account = 123
loginResponse = client.service.login(passport)
print 'Login Response: '
print loginResponse.status

# Get a record
recordRef = client.factory.create('ns4:RecordRef')
recordRef._internalId = 127842
recordRef._type = 'invoice'
record = client.service.get(recordRef)
print record

You might also need to try various combinations of Python and SUDS versions. It's not a particularly reliable library.
