This project offers a python binding to the libindi library. It uses the Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator (SWIG). You may generate a PyIndi module which mainly defines an IndiClient class. This class could be used to build python scripts able to interact with indi servers using sendNew* methods and implementing new* methods of the BaseMediator class. PyQt applications may also be built on top of IndiClient, thus allowing rapid development of GUI Indi clients.
Besides Python there are also bindings for node.js, Tcl (incomplete) and PHP (not useful).
As application examples you will find a Python Websocket server with which you may build a web application interacting with Indi servers, and a simple PyQt application similar to the Kstars Indi Control Panel (was built as an exercise).
Finally there is an equatorial mount 3D simulator written with Freecad and Python, planned to be connected with the PyIndi module.

*** The pyindi-client binding has moved to github. ***
