It was designed to simplify authentication and request handling for Google services by providing a higher-level abstraction over raw HTTP calls.\n\nHowever, the package has been abandoned since September 2017 with no repository activity, commits, or maintenance. The classifiers indicate support for Python 2.6 through 3.6, but these versions are now end-of-life. Modern Google API access is handled by official libraries like google-cloud-python and google-auth, which receive active maintenance and security updates. Installing this package exposes you to potential compatibility issues, security gaps, and lack of support for current Google API changes.","worth_installing":"No. This package is abandoned and unsupported since 2017. Do not install for new projects\u2014use official google-cloud-python or google-auth libraries instead. For legacy systems already using it, plan a migration to maintained alternatives to avoid security and compatibility drift."},"id":"google-api","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/google-api","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/google-api.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/google-api/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2017-09-05","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"google_api","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Google API Client"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":4365710,"position":2319,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.12"}
