It's my pleasure to present to you the python-peerplays library!

The sources can be found in the PBSA github repository: https://github.com/PBSA/python-peerplays
Documentation is available on: http://python.peerplays.com

Those that are familiar with piston-lib or pybitshares will find that it works the same way and is very similar to the other libraries, except that this time, it is built for peerplays.
Installation

pip3 install peerplays [--user]

or

git clone https://github.com/pbsa/python-peerplays
python3 python-peerplays/setup.py install --user

Command line tool

Similar to piston and uptick, peerplays comes with it's own command line tool that is installed together with the library right away. You can use it with

peerplays --help

To add your private keys, you can use

peerplays addkey

Current command line features:

$ peerplays --help
Usage: peerplays [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Options:
--debug / --no-debug Enable/Disable Debugging (no-broadcasting
mode)
--node TEXT Websocket URL for public Peerplays API
(default: "wss://t.b.d./")
--rpcuser TEXT Websocket user if authentication is required
--rpcpassword TEXT Websocket password if authentication is
required
-d, --nobroadcast / --broadcast
Do not broadcast anything
-x, --unsigned / --signed Do not try to sign the transaction
-e, --expires INTEGER Expiration time in seconds (defaults to 30)

Lack of public API servers

Due to current lack of public API servers, you will need to first point your library to an existing API:

peerplays set node ws://HOST:PORT

Notice

Please keep in mind that there is coding still in progress and you might encouter bugs here and there. For that reasons, the library carries the version number 0.1.x :)
Also I would like to let you know that the library supports features that are not yet part of the public blockchain but will be hard forked into it at a later point in time (when they are ready).

Now, get back to coding and have fun.
