This is implemented in eppy in the simplesurface module. Watch out for the typo in the function for coverting all the BUILDINGSURFACE:DETAILED objects to simple surfaces. That should be simplesurface but is actually simplesufrace - issue #138.
Usage is as follows:
from eppy.modeleditor import IDF
from eppy.simplesurface import simplesufrace # (sic)
iddfile = <path to your idd>
fname = <path to your idf>
IDF.setiddname(iddfile)
idf = IDF(fname)
simplesufrace(idf, bsd, deletebsd=True) # (again, sic)
