It provides a way to programmatically fetch system statistics from a Glances server instance running on a local or remote machine via HTTP. The package wraps HTTP communication using httpx and exposes Glances data through Python method calls.\n\nThe library is intended for developers who want to integrate Glances monitoring data into their own applications\u2014dashboards, automation scripts, or alerting systems. It is actively maintained, supports Python 3.13 and 3.14, and carries no known security vulnerabilities. The single runtime dependency keeps installation straightforward.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need programmatic access to Glances monitoring data. The package has low install friction, active maintenance, permissive licensing, and no known vulnerabilities. The main constraint is the Python 3.13+ requirement and the need for a running Glances server; verify that the API surface matches your use case before committing."},"id":"glances-api","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/glances-api","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/glances-api.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/glances-api/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-04-15","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"glances-api","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Python API for interacting with Glances"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":74434,"position":14833,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.10.0"}
