It wraps the Synology HTTP API to let you query system health, manage storage volumes, upload and download files, and control download tasks\u2014all without blocking your event loop. The library handles authentication including two-step verification, caches data between updates, and exposes an object model for DSM subsystems like information, utilisation, storage, file station, and download station.\n\nYou provide an aiohttp.ClientSession, instantiate SynologyDSM with your NAS IP and credentials, call login(), then call update() on the subsystem you need. The library is actively maintained, supports Python 3.11 through 3.14, and has no known vulnerabilities. It's most useful in automation scripts, home-automation integrations, or monitoring dashboards where you need non-blocking access to NAS state.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries a permissive MIT license, supports current Python versions (3.11 through 3.14), and has no known vulnerabilities. Install it if you need to interact with a Synology NAS from Python. The only caveat is that it requires an aiohttp session and async/await syntax; if you need synchronous access or don't have a Synology device, it's not applicable."},"id":"py-synologydsm-api","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/py-synologydsm-api","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/py-synologydsm-api.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/py-synologydsm-api/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-08","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"py-synologydsm-api","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Python API for communication with Synology DSM"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":80745,"position":14274,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.10.4"}
