It wraps the NTLM negotiation logic from pyspnego and exposes it as an HTTPX Auth handler, so you can pass credentials to httpx.Client() or individual requests and have NTLM challenge-response handled automatically.\n\nThe package is most useful when you need to access corporate or legacy HTTP services that require Windows domain authentication. It supports connection pooling through HTTPX's Client, which is more efficient than per-request authentication since NTLM authenticates connections. The implementation is an adaptation of requests-ntlm for HTTPX.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need NTLM authentication with HTTPX and your environment is stable. The package has no known vulnerabilities and low install friction. However, dormant maintenance means you should verify that pyspnego remains compatible with your target authentication systems before committing to production use."},"id":"httpx-ntlm","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/httpx-ntlm","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/httpx-ntlm.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/httpx-ntlm/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-11-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"httpx-ntlm","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"This package allows for HTTP NTLM authentication using the HTTPX library."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":288559,"position":8020,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.4.0"}
