you can use the built-in ftp library ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12613797/python-script-uploading-files-via-ftp [1] link text [2] ) or you can avoid using ftp and trying via xml-rpc that's a more stable solution IMO.

If you need to understand how to deal with xml-rpc, you can look at the official docs here:

https://doc.openerp.com/6.1/developer/12_api/#xml-rpc-web-services. [3]

do not forget that XML-RPC cannot manage binary files as-is, you'll have to read the content and convert it
