You authenticate with an access key, instantiate a client object, and call methods to interact with the service. The package depends on requests, python-dateutil, and pyjwt for HTTP communication and JWT token handling.\n\nThe library is dormant\u2014its last release was 784 days ago\u2014so while it remains functional for basic messaging tasks, you should not expect active maintenance, bug fixes, or updates to support new API features. It's suitable for projects that have stable, well-understood messaging needs and can tolerate a lack of ongoing support.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to integrate MessageBird's messaging services into a Python application and can accept dormant maintenance. The package is stable, has low install friction, carries no known vulnerabilities, and is licensed permissively. However, do not install if you require active support, regular API updates, or features added after mid-2024."},"id":"messagebird","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/messagebird","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/messagebird.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/messagebird/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-06-21","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"messagebird","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"MessageBird's REST API"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":226690,"position":9197,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.2.0"}
