py.ml: OCaml bindings for Python

py.ml provides OCaml bindings for Python 2 and Python
3. This library subsumes the pycaml library, which is no longer
actively maintained.

OPAM: opam install pyml

The Python library is linked at runtime and the same executable can be
run in a Python 2 or a Python 3 environment. py.ml does not
require any Python library at compile time.
The only compile time dependency is Stdcompat to ensure compatibility
with all OCaml compiler versions from 3.12:

Bindings are split in three modules:

- Py provides the initialization functions and some high-level
bindings, with error handling and naming conventions closer to OCaml
usages.

- Pycaml provides a signature close to the old Pycaml
module, so as to ease migration.

- Pywrappers provides low-level bindings, which follow closely the
conventions of the C bindings for Python. Submodules
Pywrappers.Python2 and Pywrappers.Python3 contain version-specific
bindings.

Custom top-level

A custom top-level with the C bindings can be compiled by make pymltop.

If you have utop and ocamlfind, you can make pymlutop.

For OPAM users: pymltop is installed by default by opam install pyml.
pymlutop is installed whenever utop is available.
