Hey everyone,
I’ve just released Py 1.0 on opam. This library provides a nice interface for interacting with Python3.5+ in OCaml.
If you’re interested, install py from opam and let me know how it goes.
See README for more information:

What is the difference to the other two python bindings already out there?
The main difference is the use of Ctypes.
The two other OCaml Python libraries I know of are lymp and pyml
lymp calls out to an external Python process, which is unacceptable for some situationspyml uses C stubs – I had some issues building it in the past, which led me to begin working on py
py also provides a sort-of DSL for working with Python objects.
pyml is still maintained, why don’t you join force with it?
I would be open to it, but at the same time I’m not sure it matters that there are two options.
If at least one works well, that would be enough.
