OERPLib is a RPC client library to OpenERP server written in Python. It aims to provide an easy way to remotely pilot an OpenERP server.
How does it work? See below:
import oerplib
# Prepare the connection to the OpenERP server
oerp = oerplib.OERP('localhost', protocol='xmlrpc', port=8069)
# Check available databases
print(oerp.db.list())
# Login (the object returned is a browsable record)
user = oerp.login('user', 'passwd', 'db_name')
print(user.name) # name of the user connected
print(user.company_id.name) # the name of its company
# Simple 'raw' query
user_data = oerp.execute('res.users', 'read', [user.id])
print(user_data)
# Use all methods of a model class
order_obj = oerp.get('sale.order')
order_ids = order_obj.search([])
for order in order_obj.browse(order_ids):
print(order.name)
products = [line.product_id.name for line in order.order_line]
print(products)
# Update data through a browsable record
user.name = "Brian Jones"
oerp.write_record(user)

OERPLib has been tested on OpenERP server v5.0, v6.0, v6.1, v7.0 and v8.0. It should work on next versions if OpenERP keeps a stable API.
OERPLib support Python versions 2.6, 2.7.
