  • Install using pip install opcua
  • Command line tools can be found in the tools subdirectory (doc)

• A LGPL C++ library to develop server and client OPC-UA applications: https://github.com/FreeOpcUa/freeopcua (CURRENTLY UNMAINTAINED)

  • Python bindings can be found in the python subdirectory

• A GPL Python GUI to create OPC-UA nodes and save them to xml: https://github.com/FreeOpcUa/opcua-modeler

  • Install using pip install opcua-modeler
