It wraps the Metal API to let you index documents and query them, handling HTTP communication and credential management through a simple object interface. The library depends only on httpx for HTTP requests and typing-extensions for type hints, making it lightweight to install.\n\nThe package is dormant\u2014its last release was 2023-11-10\u2014so it receives no active maintenance. If the underlying Metal service has evolved or introduced breaking changes, this SDK may not work correctly. Use it only if you are certain the Metal API remains compatible with version 2.5.1, or if you are willing to fork and maintain it yourself.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are actively using the Metal service and the API has not changed since 2023-11-10. The low install friction and permissive license make it straightforward to add. However, the dormant maintenance status means you should verify compatibility with your Metal instance before relying on it in production, and be prepared to maintain a fork if the service has evolved."},"id":"metal-sdk","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/metal-sdk","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/metal-sdk.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/metal-sdk/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-11-10","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"metal-sdk","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"SDK for getmetal.io"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":129818,"position":11658,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.5.1"}
