Inspired by python's legendary 'requests' library I have been working on python library for stellar API.
Following are some examples of typical usage of this library:

stellar.account('GBS4..6S3K').fetch()
Account(id=GAEE..IB4V..,seq=28515937145585674,balances=[Balance(9855.9998800 XLM)])

stellar.account('GBS4..6S3K').operations().fetch(limit=1).entries()
[Operation(id=28515937145589761,account=GBS4..6S3K,type=create_account)]

with stellar.new_transaction('SEED..5KEE', memo='test-pay') as trx:
... trx.pay(account='GBS4..6S3K', amount='42.01')
... #remove existing offer for buying BTC
... trx.remove_offer(offer_id=12891, sell_asset='native', buy_asset=('BTC', 'GADE..ED87'))
... #add new offer to buy BTC
... trx.add_offer(sell_amount='10.00', sell_asset='native', buy_asset=('BTC', 'GADE..ED87'), price=(1, 10000))

Please see Github repo of the project at https://github.com/hard-codr/sirius
I tried to explain the motivation for creating this library in more details on Github repo.

Comments & feedback are always welcome.

looks like better/simpler/easier than current wrapper of py-stellar-base ， good job!

    22 days later

    I have improved library a bit:
    1. Added more documentation in code (so that it can be viewed using help() or pydoc).
    2. Wrote tutorials:
    - https://github.com/hard-codr/sirius/wiki/Tutorial-%7C-Keys
    - https://github.com/hard-codr/sirius/wiki/Tutorial-%7C-Querying
    - https://github.com/hard-codr/sirius/wiki/Tutorial-%7C-Transactions
    3. Unit test cases covering majority of functionality
    4. Improvements in error handling.
    5. API for key generations.
