It abstracts FHIR resource operations\u2014create, read, update, patch, delete\u2014into a Python object model, and provides a fluent search API with support for FHIR query parameters, chained searches, date filtering, and result pagination.\n\nThe library is aimed at healthcare developers building integrations with FHIR servers. It handles resource instantiation, serialization, reference resolution, and conditional operations, letting you work with FHIR data as Python objects rather than raw JSON. The async variant is suitable for concurrent server interactions; the sync variant integrates into traditional blocking codebases.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building against a FHIR server and need a Python client. The package is stable (Production/Stable classifier), supports current Python versions (3.9\u20133.12), has no known vulnerabilities, and offers both async and sync modes. Caveat: verify the license terms in the repository before use, and note that maintenance is aging (311 days since last release); if active development is critical, confirm the project's roadmap with the maintainers."},"id":"fhirpy","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/fhirpy","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/fhirpy.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/fhirpy/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-10-07","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"fhirpy","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"FHIR client for python"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1124621,"position":4329,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.2.0"}
