[Python] Spyne define a function that accepts array of complex types

I am trying to make a SOAP function on my spyne server that follows this structure.

<soap-env:Envelope xmlns:soap-env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap-env:Body>
<test_function xmlns:ns0="Test">
<resource>
<item>
<material>gold</material>
</item>
<item>
<material>silver</material>
</item>
</resource>
</test_function>
</soap-env:Body>
</soap-env:Envelope>


Code that is closest to work is this

class Material(ComplexModel):
material = Unicode

class Resource(Array): # Changing to ComplexModel doesn't affect
item = Material

class Soap(ServiceBase):
@rpc(Resource)
def test_function(ctx, resource):
print(resource)
return "Yes"


app = Application(
[Soap],
tns='Test',
in_protocol=Soap11(),
out_protocol=Soap11()
)
application = WsgiApplication(app)


I make requests with zeep and code of client looks like this

params = {
"resource": [
{"item": {"material": "gold"}},
{"item": {"material": "silver"}}
]
}

...

with zeep_client as client:
msg = client.create_message(
client.service, 'test_function', **params)



But my request have only one <item>, second one is missing. I tried to play Array in different places but they either makes code not working (unexpected arguments errors) or doesn't change anything.

Decorating function with @rpc(Array(Resource)) leads to

`TypeError: {Test}ResourceArray() got an unexpected keyword argument 'item'. Signature: `Resource: {Test}Resource[]`
