Python Ethereum Client
Project description
Introduction
pyethapp is the python based client implementing the Ethereum cryptoeconomic state machine.
Ethereum as a platform is focussed on enabling people to build new ideas using blockchain technology.
The python implementation aims to provide an easily hackable and extendable codebase.
pyethapp leverages two ethereum core components to implement the client:
pyethereum - the core library, featuring the blockchain, the ethereum virtual machine, mining
pydevp2p - the p2p networking library, featuring node discovery for and transport of multiple services over multiplexed and encrypted connections
Installation and invocation
Install from source:
$ git clone https://github.com/ethereum/pyethapp
$ cd pyethapp
$ python setup.py install
Install the latest realease from PyPI:
$ pip install pyethapp
Show available commands and options:
$ pyethapp
Connect to the default network (see below for more information on networks):

Available Networks
Frontier
Morden
Currently there are two official networks available. The “Main Network” is called Frontier and this is what the client will connect to if you start it without any additional options.
Additionally there is the official test network Morden which can be used to test new code or otherwise experiment without having to risk real money. Use the –profile command line option to select the test network:
$ pyethapp --profile morden run
Interacting
You can interact with the client using the JSONRPC api or directly on the console.
Status

interoperable with the go and cpp clients
jsonrpc (mostly)
