It wraps the core functions needed to interact with the GitHub Actions runtime: reading inputs (including boolean and multiline variants), setting outputs for downstream actions, logging, registering secrets, and exporting environment variables. The package depends on aiofiles, httpx, and typing-extensions, and targets Python 3.9+.\n\nThe library is in pre-alpha status and has been dormant since its latest release. It appears designed for developers writing custom GitHub Actions in Python who need a thin abstraction over the Actions API rather than a full framework. Users should verify whether it remains compatible with current GitHub Actions infrastructure and whether more actively maintained alternatives better serve their use case.","worth_installing":"No\u2014unless you are maintaining an existing codebase that already uses it. The package is dormant (latest release October 2023, last commit June 2024), has minimal adoption, and lacks current documentation. Verify first whether GitHub's official Actions toolkit or a more actively maintained alternative better serves your use case."},"id":"actions-python-core","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/actions-python-core","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/actions-python-core.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/actions-python-core/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-10-08","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"actions-python-core","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Actions core lib"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":133307,"position":11521,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.3"}
