It sits on top of wadllib (which handles WADL\u2014Web Application Description Language\u2014parsing) and adds higher-level abstractions to simplify working with REST APIs that follow the lazr.restful conventions. The library handles authentication via oauthlib, makes HTTP requests through httplib2, and uses distro for platform detection.\n\nThe package is intended for developers building tools or integrations that need to talk to lazr.restful-based services. It abstracts away boilerplate HTTP and authentication logic, letting you work with REST resources as Python objects rather than raw HTTP calls. It supports Python 3.8 through 3.14 and is in production-stable status, making it suitable for production use in projects that depend on lazr.restful APIs.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to consume a lazr.restful web service. The library is actively maintained, has low install friction, no known security vulnerabilities, and is in production-stable status. The LGPL v3 copyleft license is standard for this project ecosystem and poses no barrier for most use cases. Install it only if you're actually targeting a lazr.restful API; it's not a general-purpose REST client."},"id":"lazr-restfulclient","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/lazr-restfulclient","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/lazr-restfulclient.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/lazr-restfulclient/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-01","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"copyleft","name":"lazr.restfulclient","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A programmable client library that takes advantage of the commonalities among lazr.restful web services."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":478742,"position":6435,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"4.0.0"}
