How to combine trnsys and energyplus through python?

It is easy to model building in energyplus with the help of ladybug and honeybee, and it is easy to model cooling coil and other kind of end equipments. and, energyplus now can work with python in Library and Plugin mode, but energyplus is not easy to use when we want to simulate chiller plant and other kind of plants. Trnsys is easy to simulate plant, and trnsys is also work well with python. If there are some method to combine trnsys with energyplus through python? Hope someone can give some tips.

I mean combine trnsys and energyplus through python, when trnsys finish its one timestep, then transfer the data to energyplus, energyplus get the data and start to simulate corresponed timestep, when energyplus finish it works, transfer data back to trnsys and start the next timestep.
