How to use Python kazoo library?

I am planning to use Python kazoo library for Zookeeper. It's all about Python question here not zookeeper at all I guess meaning how to use Python kazoo properly..

I am totally new to python so I have no idea how to get going and how to use kazoo to connect with zookeeper.

This is the document I was reading to start using kazoo for Zookeeper.

http://kazoo.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html

In that wiki, they have asked to install kazoo. And they are using some pip command for that?

What does pip do here? And I am currently using windows so I have cygwin installed and python installed as well. I am using Python 2.7.3

host@D-SJC-00542612 ~
$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Dec 18 2012, 13:50:09)
[GCC 4.5.3] on cygwin

Now what I did is - I copied this command exactly as it is from the above website - pip install kazoo and ran it on my cygwin command prompt.

host@D-SJC-00542612 ~
$ pip install kazoo

Does it got installed properly? Now I can start writing code in python to connect with zookeeper?

Sorry for asking all these dumb questions as I don't have any background with python so learning little bit here..

It's all about Python question here not zookeeper at all I guess..

pip is common way to install packages. It queries and downloads the packages from pypi. Kazoo has been installed as per the log statements. Give it a try.

you should be able to find the package at where python is installed\lib\site-packages\kazoo.

You should try to load (import) the package without errors:

from kazoo.client import KazooClient

After you have started the zookeeper. Your zookeeper configuration will have the client port details.

tickTime=2000
dataDir=...../zookeeperdata/cluster/server1/data
clientPort=2181
initLimit=5

Use that to connect to zookeeper.

# Create a client and start it
zk = KazooClient(hosts='127.0.0.1:2181')
zk.start()

# Now you can do the regular zookepper API calls
# Ensure some paths are created required by your application
zk.ensure_path("/app/someservice") 

# In the end, stop it
zk.stop()
