zabbix python api errors while create a host

I am getting the following errors while using the Zabbix Python API for host creation,

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 57, in <module>
zapi.host.create({ 'name':'testname', 'host' : '192.168.1.1','ip' :
 '192.178.1.2','port' : 10050,'useip' : 0,'groups' : [{
 "groupid":gid}],'templates' : [{ "templateid":tid}]})

 File "/home/zhiguo/zabbix/zabbix_api.py", line 307, in do_request
 raise ZabbixAPIException(msg, jobj['error']['code'])
 zabbix_api.ZabbixAPIException: (u'Error -32602: Invalid params., No 
 interfaces for host "192.168.1.1". while sending {"params": {"templates": {"templateid": "10085"}], "name": "testname", "ip": "192.178.1.2", "useip": 0, 
 "host": "192.168.1.1", "groups": [{"groupid": "6"}], "port": 10050},

 "7894f7d64a3f30e1754dd9d2eeb5a493", "id": 4}', -32602)

my python code is:

zapi.host.create({ 'name':'testname', 'host' : '192.168.1.1','ip' :   
'192.178.1.2',  'port'   : 10050,'useip' : 0,'groups' : [{ "groupid":gid}],  
'templates' : [{ "templateid":tid}]})

I still haven't tried the Zabbix 2.0 API, but this was how I did it in 1.8.x

I'm quite sure dns field is mandatory, 

hostid = zapi.host.create({ 'host': host_name, 'dns' : host_name,'ip' : host_ip, 
'groups': [{"groupid":hostgroup_id}]})['hostids'][0]

Also, from the docs ,

  "interfaces":[
      {
          "type":1,
          "main":1,
          "useip":1,
          "ip":"192.168.3.1",
          "dns":"",
          "port":10050
      }

it does seem "Invalid params., No interfaces for host" is complaining about a missing "interfaces" parameter,
