It serves as the foundational types layer for working with Google's merchant and shopping APIs, offering structured data models for product information, pricing, and shopping-related entities.\n\nThe package is designed for developers building applications that integrate with Google's shopping infrastructure. It depends on google-api-core, google-auth, grpcio, proto-plus, and protobuf to handle authentication, gRPC communication, and protocol buffer serialization. Installation is straightforward via pip, and the library is actively maintained with support for modern Python versions (3.10 and later).","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building applications that integrate with Google's Shopping or Merchant APIs. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries a permissive license, and has no known vulnerabilities. It is a foundational dependency for Shopping API work rather than a standalone tool, so install it only as part of a larger Google Cloud shopping integration project."},"id":"google-shopping-type","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/google-shopping-type","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/google-shopping-type.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/google-shopping-type/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-06-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"google-shopping-type","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Google Shopping Type API client library"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":122629,"position":11942,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.5.0"}
