You can think of a binding as a communication protocol. The specification provides for three bindings: * Atom Pub * Browser (JSON) * Web Services (SOAP) Although the spec supports three, cmislib supports only two of these bindings: Atom Pub and Browser. When instantiating a :class:`CmisClient`, if you do not specify a binding, cmislib will use the Atom Pub binding, by default. To use a different binding, such as the Browser binding, import it, then pass it to the CmisClient constructor, like this: >>> from cmislib.browser.binding import BrowserBinding >>> client = CmisClient('http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/cmis/versions/1.1/browser', 'admin', 'admin', binding=BrowserBinding()) Make sure you specify the appropriate service URL for the binding you've chosen, otherwise cmislib will be unable to parse the response appropriately. Each of the two bindings modules contain implementations of the classes defined in :mod:`cmislib.domain`. So, for example, if you execute a query that returns documents and you are using the Atom Pub binding, what you'll get back are instances of :class:`cmislib.atompub.AtomPubDocument` which implements :class:`cmislib.domain.Document`.
