+
+Class Translation
+*****************
+
+I've recently added "automatic" class translation support, although it is
+turned off by default. This can be devastatingly slow if improperly used, so
+the following is just a short list of things to keep in mind when using it.
+
+* Keep It (the object) Simple Stupid. (for exceptions, keep reading.)
+* Do not require init params (for exceptions, keep reading)
+* Getter properties without setters could be dangerous (read: not tested)
+
+If any of the above are issues, use the _serialize method. (see usage below)
+The server and client must BOTH have use_jsonclass configuration item on and
+they must both have access to the same libraries used by the objects for
+this to work.
+
+If you have excessively nested arguments, it would be better to turn off the
+translation and manually invoke it on specific objects using
+``jsonrpclib.jsonclass.dump`` / ``jsonrpclib.jsonclass.load`` (since the default
+behavior recursively goes through attributes and lists / dicts / tuples).
+
+ Sample file: *test_obj.py*
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   # This object is /very/ simple, and the system will look through the
+   # attributes and serialize what it can.
+   class TestObj(object):
+       foo = 'bar'
+
+   # This object requires __init__ params, so it uses the _serialize method
+   # and returns a tuple of init params and attribute values (the init params
+   # can be a dict or a list, but the attribute values must be a dict.)
+   class TestSerial(object):
+       foo = 'bar'
+       def __init__(self, *args):
+           self.args = args
+       def _serialize(self):
+           return (self.args, {'foo':self.foo,})
+
+* Sample usage
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   >>> import jsonrpclib
+   >>> import test_obj
+
+   # History is used only to print the serialized form of beans
+   >>> history = jsonrpclib.history.History()
+   >>> testobj1 = test_obj.TestObj()
+   >>> testobj2 = test_obj.TestSerial()
+   >>> server = jsonrpclib.Server('http://localhost:8080', history=history)
+
+   # The 'ping' just returns whatever is sent
+   >>> ping1 = server.ping(testobj1)
+   >>> ping2 = server.ping(testobj2)
+
+   >>> print(history.request)
+   {"id": "7805f1f9-9abd-49c6-81dc-dbd47229fe13", "jsonrpc": "2.0",
+    "method": "ping", "params": [{"__jsonclass__":
+                                  ["test_obj.TestSerial", []], "foo": "bar"}
+                                ]}
+   >>> print(history.response)
+   {"id": "7805f1f9-9abd-49c6-81dc-dbd47229fe13", "jsonrpc": "2.0",
+    "result": {"__jsonclass__": ["test_obj.TestSerial", []], "foo": "bar"}}
+
+This behavior is turned by default. To deactivate it, just set the
+``use_jsonclass`` member of a server ``Config`` to False.
+If you want to use a per-class serialization method, set its name in the
+``serialize_method`` member of a server ``Config``.
+Finally, if you are using classes that you have defined in the implementation
+(as in, not a separate library), you'll need to add those (on BOTH the server
+and the client) using the ``config.classes.add()`` method.
+
+Feedback on this "feature" is very, VERY much appreciated.

+.. _client:
+
+JSON-RPC Client usage
+*********************
+
+This is (obviously) taken from a console session.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   >>> import jsonrpclib
+   >>> server = jsonrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:8080')
+   >>> server.add(5,6)
+   11
+   >>> server.add(x=5, y=10)
+   15
+   >>> server._notify.add(5,6)
+   # No result returned...
+   >>> batch = jsonrpclib.MultiCall(server)
+   >>> batch.add(5, 6)
+   >>> batch.ping({'key':'value'})
+   >>> batch._notify.add(4, 30)
+   >>> results = batch()
+   >>> for result in results:
+   >>> ... print(result)
+   11
+   {'key': 'value'}
+   # Note that there are only two responses -- this is according to spec.
+
+   # Clean up
+   >>> server('close')()
+
+   # Using client history
+   >>> history = jsonrpclib.history.History()
+   >>> server = jsonrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:8080', history=history)
+   >>> server.add(5,6)
+   11
+   >>> print(history.request)
+   {"id": "f682b956-c8e1-4506-9db4-29fe8bc9fcaa", "jsonrpc": "2.0",
+    "method": "add", "params": [5, 6]}
+   >>> print(history.response)
+   {"id": "f682b956-c8e1-4506-9db4-29fe8bc9fcaa", "jsonrpc": "2.0",
+    "result": 11}
+
+   # Clean up
+   >>> server('close')()
+
+If you need 1.0 functionality, there are a bunch of places you can pass that in,
+although the best is just to give a specific configuration to
+``jsonrpclib.ServerProxy``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   >>> import jsonrpclib
+   >>> jsonrpclib.config.DEFAULT.version
+   2.0
+   >>> config = jsonrpclib.config.Config(version=1.0)
+   >>> history = jsonrpclib.history.History()
+   >>> server = jsonrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:8080', config=config,
+                                       history=history)
+   >>> server.add(7, 10)
+   17
+   >>> print(history.request)
+   {"id": "827b2923-5b37-49a5-8b36-e73920a16d32",
+    "method": "add", "params": [7, 10]}
+   >>> print(history.response)
+   {"id": "827b2923-5b37-49a5-8b36-e73920a16d32", "error": null, "result": 17}
+   >>> server('close')()
+
+The equivalent ``loads`` and ``dumps`` functions also exist, although with minor
+modifications. The ``dumps`` arguments are almost identical, but it adds three
+arguments: ``rpcid`` for the 'id' key, ``version`` to specify the JSON-RPC
+compatibility, and ``notify`` if it's a request that you want to be a
+notification.
+
+Additionally, the ``loads`` method does not return the params and method like
+``xmlrpclib``, but instead a.) parses for errors, raising ProtocolErrors, and
+b.) returns the entire structure of the request / response for manual parsing.
