It supports Python 3.7 through 3.10 and depends only on deprecated and typing-extensions, keeping its footprint minimal. The package was last released in June 2022 and its repository was archived in early 2023, meaning it receives no active maintenance, bug fixes, or security updates.\n\nDevelopers considering this package should understand that while it installs cleanly and carries a permissive MIT license, its abandoned status makes it a risky choice for new projects. Existing code that depends on it will continue to work on supported Python versions, but no forward compatibility or security patches should be expected.","worth_installing":"No, not for new projects. The package is abandoned with no maintenance since early 2023. While it installs cleanly and carries a permissive license, the lack of security updates, bug fixes, or forward compatibility makes it unsuitable for production use. Only consider it if you are maintaining existing code that already depends on it."},"id":"nr-util","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/nr-util","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/nr-util.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/nr-util/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2022-06-20","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"nr-util","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"General purpose Python utility library."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":229154,"position":9138,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.8.12"}
