Hi,

the python crest library "crestClient" was announced in the third party developer blog on 2014-10-31 to be available within a few weeks, but there is nothing on the CCP GitHub up to now. Are there any news on this library? It would be fantastic if it was possible to get access to it, even if it was in an early stage of development.

Thanks!

Things happened and other priorities came up. It's not forgotten or lost. Will keep you guys updated. :)

Thanks a lot! :) Do you have an approximate timeframe for the (alpha) release? I have started with the development of an industry/trading tool and would very much prefer to use your library for the crest requests.

I would greatly appreciate this too :) I don't want to be "that guy" but are there any news on this subject?
I got some Ideas what I want to do, and if I understood correctly, you (CCP) prefer new developers using CREST instead of the XML-API, right? ;D

If there are already any python CREST files on github I am sorry, but I couldn't find any.

With kind regards,

Nerd

EDIT: I just searched for an EVE-CREST Python Lib and found this: http://python-eve.org/.
It has in fact the word EVE in it, but it seems it is not EVE-specific, just a random python REST-API lib, but maybe it's a starting point.

Don't know the level of compatibility with the EVE CREST but i thought I'll share it so you can decide yourself if it's worth a try.
