The utils package provides common operations\u2014such as schema validation and data structure utilities\u2014that complement the core pyATS framework.\n\nThis package is typically installed as part of a larger pyATS deployment or when you need specific utility functions for test scripts. It depends on distro, cryptography, pyats.datastructures, and pyats.topology, so installing it will pull in those runtime dependencies. The package is actively maintained, with recent releases and support for modern Python versions (3.10\u20133.14).","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are already using pyATS or building test automation on the Cisco pyATS framework. The package is actively maintained, carries no known vulnerabilities, and is licensed permissively. Install friction is moderate due to compiled wheels, but wheels are available for common platforms. If you need pyATS utilities, this is the standard way to get them; if you're not using pyATS, this package alone is unlikely to be useful."},"id":"pyats-utils","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyats-utils","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyats-utils.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pyats-utils/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-07","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pyats.utils","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"pyATS Utils: Utilities Module"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":295320,"position":7924,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"26.7"}
