It abstracts away the low-level API calls, letting you fetch spreadsheets by ID or URL, access individual cells or ranges using spreadsheet coordinates (like 'A1') or zero-based positions, and iterate over worksheets and spreadsheets by title or ID. The package depends on google-api-python-client and oauth2client to handle OAuth authentication and API communication.\n\nTypical workflows include fetching cell values, exporting worksheets to CSV files with custom naming schemes, and converting worksheet data into pandas DataFrames for data analysis. It targets developers and researchers who need programmatic access to Google Sheets without building authentication and API plumbing from scratch.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need straightforward programmatic access to Google Sheets and are comfortable with OAuth setup. The low install friction and permissive license make it a reasonable choice. However, note that oauth2client is deprecated and the latest release is from 2022; verify compatibility with your Google account setup and current API versions before relying on it for production workflows."},"id":"gsheets","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/gsheets","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/gsheets.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/gsheets/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2022-06-12","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"gsheets","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Pythonic wrapper for the Google Sheets API"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":128490,"position":11705,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.6.1"}
