Hi Max,
my approach would be to use Sage, which allows for interaction
between GAP, Singular, and many other packages, all in comfort of your
Python shell :)
But I might be biased.
Best,
Dima

I need to enter relations in a module, and then read the resulting Groebner basis back into GAP. I need to use different coefficient rings; and I will at times want to compute a GB, then add some more relations, compute a new GB, add some more relations etc. until the GB does not grow anymore.
