https://github.com/darkwallet/python-obelisk/

See examples/ directory.

This is a collaboration between Pablo Martin's ZMQ/Obelisk
implementation, Robert Williamson's blockalchemy library[1] and code
from ThomasV's Electrum.[2]

Obelisk is a scalable blockchain query infrastructure. See the setup
guide[3]. There is a public server available at 37.139.11.99:9091 but I
wouldn't use it for anything production (besides testing).

A pure Python library is great because it can be deployed easily without
requiring dependencies. This allows code to be ported across many
platforms such as the mobile phone with Kivy, desktops or any platform
running Python.

Features:

* Blockchain queries and navigation through Obelisk servers.
* Construct & sign transactions.
* BIP32 hierarchical wallet.
* Traverse the blockchain using a syntax similar to Django ORM / SQL
alchemy.
