DataDetection is a native macOS framework that recognizes and extracts structured data from unstructured text\u2014dates, times, addresses, phone numbers, URLs, and similar patterns. The wrapper translates Objective-C framework calls into Python, letting you call DataDetection APIs directly from Python code.\n\nIt is a thin binding layer without its own documentation; you rely on Apple's DataDetection framework documentation and PyObjC's general translation guides to understand how to use it. The package is actively maintained, supports modern Python versions (3.10\u20133.15), and carries no known security vulnerabilities. It is macOS-only and requires the Cocoa framework bindings from PyObjC.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are developing on macOS and need native data detection. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries MIT licensing, and supports current Python versions. It is a straightforward wrapper to Apple's framework with no security issues. Install only if you are on macOS and need DataDetection capabilities; it is not portable to other platforms."},"id":"pyobjc-framework-datadetection","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyobjc-framework-datadetection","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyobjc-framework-datadetection.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pyobjc-framework-datadetection/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-11","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pyobjc-framework-DataDetection","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Wrappers for the framework DataDetection on macOS"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":647958,"position":5588,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"12.2.2"}
