It dynamically exposes the full MAAS API by introspecting the server's API description endpoint, allowing you to allocate machines, deploy systems, and manage their lifecycle programmatically. The library uses the same technique as the official MAAS CLI to maintain functional parity with server capabilities.\n\nThe package depends on requests and requests-oauthlib for HTTP communication and OAuth authentication. It supports Python 3.9 and 3.10. However, the project is abandoned\u2014the last release and repository commit were 2021-10-22, and no updates have been made since. This means it may not work with newer MAAS versions or Python releases, and any bugs or security issues discovered after that date will not be addressed.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last update 2021-10-22, repository archived), with no maintenance since. Its license status is unclear, and there is no assurance it will work with current MAAS versions or modern Python environments. Use only if locked to a legacy MAAS deployment; otherwise, seek an actively maintained alternative or use the official MAAS CLI directly."},"id":"maas-api","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/maas-api","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/maas-api.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/maas-api/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-10-22","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"maas-api","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"An api client library for MAAS.io"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":510489,"position":6266,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.1"}
