It handles OAuth2 authentication, device enumeration, state queries, and command execution (like setting thermostat modes or temperatures) against Google Nest devices. The library wraps the REST API and Pub/Sub event subscription mechanisms, abstracting away much of the complexity of direct API calls.\n\nThe package depends on aiohttp, google-auth, google-auth-oauthlib, google-cloud-pubsub, requests-oauthlib, PyYAML, and mashumaro for async HTTP, OAuth flows, event streaming, and data serialization. Setup requires significant upfront work: registering with Google's Device Access program, creating a Google Cloud project, configuring OAuth credentials, and setting up Pub/Sub topics and subscriptions. The documentation acknowledges this complexity and recommends testing the API with curl before attempting integration.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to programmatically control Google Nest devices and are willing to invest time in Google Cloud setup. The library is stable and permissively licensed, but maintenance is aging (last release 254 days ago), so expect slower bug fixes. Not suitable if you need rapid support or active feature development. Requires Python 3.13+."},"id":"google-nest-sdm","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/google-nest-sdm","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/google-nest-sdm.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/google-nest-sdm/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-12-03","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"google-nest-sdm","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Library for the Google Nest SDM API"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":78676,"position":14420,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"9.1.2"}
