It is part of the PyObjC project and provides low-level bindings to the Objective-C framework, allowing Python code to call FinderSync APIs directly.\n\nThe package itself contains only bindings and does not include framework documentation; users must consult Apple's FinderSync documentation alongside PyObjC's general translation guides. It depends on pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-Cocoa and runs on Python 3.10 through 3.15. The project is actively maintained and has been in use since 2016.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are developing a macOS Finder extension or file-sync tool in Python. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and installs with low friction. The main caveat is that you must be comfortable reading Apple's framework documentation and PyObjC's translation patterns; the bindings themselves are not self-documenting."},"id":"pyobjc-framework-findersync","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyobjc-framework-findersync","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyobjc-framework-findersync.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pyobjc-framework-findersync/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-11","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pyobjc-framework-FinderSync","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Wrappers for the framework FinderSync on macOS"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":650532,"position":5559,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"12.2.2"}
