scheduling a sidekiq job with a python script

I have Sidekiq running with a Rails app. I need to be able to run a job from a Python script (as I'm using Luigi to run tasks in general). I'm searching for a Python library to work with the Sidekiq API but so far no luck. Any ideas or thoughts on this?

    This is the simplest Ruby, translate it to Python:

    require 'securerandom'
require 'json'

redis = Redis.new(:url => 'redis://hostname:port/db')
msg = { "class" => 'MyWorker',
    "queue" => 'default',
    "args" => [1, 2, 3],
    'retry' => true,
    'jid' => SecureRandom.hex(12),
    'created_at' => Time.now.to_f,
    'enqueued_at' => Time.now.to_f }
redis.lpush("queue:default", JSON.dump(msg))
