It wraps botocore to handle secret retrieval and caching logic, allowing applications to configure cache size, refresh intervals, and retry behavior for failed requests.\n\nThe library is designed for Python applications that need to access secrets frequently without incurring the latency and cost of repeated AWS API calls. It includes decorators to inject secrets directly into function arguments and supports both simple string secrets and JSON-based secret objects. Configuration options control cache size, refresh timing, and exception retry strategies.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, minimal dependencies, and solves a real problem for AWS-based Python applications. The permissive Apache 2.0 license and stable production status make it a low-risk addition. Install if your application retrieves secrets from AWS Secrets Manager more than occasionally."},"id":"aws-secretsmanager-caching","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-secretsmanager-caching","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-secretsmanager-caching.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/aws-secretsmanager-caching/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-06-20","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"aws-secretsmanager-caching","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Client-side AWS Secrets Manager caching library"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2928556,"position":2820,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.3"}
