It depends on colcon-core and packaging, and exposes information about available extension points and registered extensions within a colcon environment.\n\nThe package is classified as alpha-stage software and is intended for developers working with colcon's plugin ecosystem. It runs on macOS, Windows, and POSIX systems with Python 3.6 or later. Maintenance is aging, with the last release 884 days ago, though the repository remains non-archived with recent activity.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are actively developing colcon plugins or need to introspect the colcon plugin system. The low install friction and permissive license make it a safe addition. However, the aging maintenance status suggests the package may be stable but no longer under active development\u2014verify that its plugin introspection features meet your current colcon version's needs before relying on it in production."},"id":"colcon-devtools","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/colcon-devtools","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/colcon-devtools.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/colcon-devtools/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-03-13","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"colcon-devtools","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Extension for colcon to provide information about all extension points and extensions"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":182752,"position":10086,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.3.0"}
