How can I manage Google Hangouts using Python?

As a Python project, I would like to manage Google Hangouts (start / end video / phone calls, mute / unmute audio, dial key, etc.) using Python 2.7; for example create a function call()

that takes email addresses and phone numbers of people in my circles / contacts and calls those people.

As a beginner, however, I don't know if there is

  • There is already a Python package that does (for the most part) that
  • I need to sign up for Google Cloud, install the Google Cloud SDK, learn how to use Google App Engine, etc. or just logging into google in your browser is enough.

So, I would appreciate it if someone could sketch out a short roadmap for me.

For example, what Python packages do I need?

Hangups, a python instant messaging client for hangouts already exists and is probably worth a look. It is a terminal client, but it is also used as a backend for several graphical applications.
