It simplifies making authenticated requests to Facebook endpoints by handling the HTTP layer through its single runtime dependency, requests.\n\nThe library was designed to work alongside Facebook's official JavaScript SDK for authentication flows. It supports Python 2.7 and Python 3.x as declared in classifiers, though it has not been actively maintained since 2018-11-06. With 2793 GitHub stars and steady download volume, it remains widely used despite its dormant status.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are maintaining legacy code or need a simple, lightweight Graph API client with no active security vulnerabilities. No, if you are starting a new project\u2014the 2018-11-06 release date and dormant status mean it may not support current Facebook API features, authentication methods, or recent Python versions. Verify compatibility with your target Facebook API version before adopting."},"id":"facebook-sdk","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/facebook-sdk","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/facebook-sdk.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/facebook-sdk/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2018-11-06","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"facebook-sdk","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"This client library is designed to support the Facebook Graph API and the official Facebook JavaScript SDK, which is the canonical way to implement Facebook authentication."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":461575,"position":6532,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.1.0"}
