It handles the authentication handshake with the Freebox and exposes its API surface\u2014calls, contacts, DHCP configuration, WiFi control, LAN monitoring, and system operations like reboot\u2014through async/await methods, usable both on the local network and remotely.\n\nThe library wraps aiohttp for HTTP communication and relies on importlib-metadata for version introspection. It is built on the same API surface as the earlier synchronous freepybox project but designed for non-blocking I/O. The package supports Python 3.10 through 3.14 and is actively maintained.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, covers a specific and useful niche (Freebox control), and carries no known vulnerabilities. The copyleft GPL v3 license is a consideration if you plan to redistribute modified versions, but poses no barrier to private use. Install if you own or manage a Freebox and need programmatic control or monitoring."},"id":"freebox-api","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/freebox-api","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/freebox-api.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/freebox-api/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-03-30","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"copyleft","name":"freebox-api","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Provides asynchronous authentication and access to Freebox servers"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":75967,"position":14664,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.3.1"}
