How to do FLAC or mpeg with python

Question

I'm looking for python code that can convert .wav or other format to FLAC or mpeg. I hope there is one that doesn't depend on other binaries or libraries and just pure python so that it can run independently anywhere where python is installed ie also serverside. Do you know any examples?

Thanks

Python Audio Tools seems to fit your description.

Worst case, you'd have to rip the source code out and go from there.

As others have said, there are other alternatives.
