mod_openopc is a full featured implementation of the OpenOPC library for Python. It is cross platform compatible (full Python 2.5 and up). We used to recommend running it on a POSIX platform (Unix / Linux), but thanks to modest efforts since 2014, performance in Windows OS environments is excellent.
OpenOPC for Python is an easy to use OPC (OLE for Process Control) library for use with the Python programming language. The project includes a Windows gateway service allowing non-Windows clients to also access OPC-DA calls.
syphon is an extension for mod_openopc, to monitor telnet devices (serial devices) that sit on Serial -to- Ethernet bridges (such as barcode scanners) and export parsed data to an OPC compliant device (such as a PLC).
The goal of this project is to implement an OPC UA communication stack using the python programming language. Currently we are working on a series of articles, describing how we can use python to implement the communication stack. Some code snippets have already been written!
