It wraps the Hub REST API with a modern Client class that handles session persistence, automatic pagination, and token lifecycle management\u2014features essential for working with Black Duck v2022.2 and later, which enforce maximum page sizes on API responses.\n\nThe package is built on requests and python-dateutil and targets Python 3.6 and later. It provides a generator-based interface for traversing paginated resources, making it practical for scanning large component inventories or project lists. The older HubInstance interface remains available for backward compatibility but does not support the new paging model and is no longer maintained; the documentation explicitly recommends migrating to the Client class.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to integrate Black Duck Hub into Python automation or tooling. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and the Client class provides modern session and paging support required for Black Duck v2022.2 and later. Avoid if you are still on older Black Duck versions and cannot migrate code to the Client interface, as the deprecated HubInstance will not work with current server releases."},"id":"blackduck","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/blackduck","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/blackduck.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/blackduck/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-04-19","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"blackduck","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Package for using the Synopsys Black Duck Hub REST API."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":518366,"position":6223,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.3"}
