It extends PySTAC's core datetime handling to include additional temporal metadata fields\u2014published, expires, and unpublished\u2014allowing STAC items and catalogs to express richer temporal context beyond a single datetime value. This is useful for describing when content was published, when it expires, or when it was unpublished, which is common in imagery and data catalogs.\n\nThe package is a thin wrapper around the extension specification, designed to integrate seamlessly with pystac-core. It requires Python 3.10 or later and has minimal dependencies. The package version tracks the extension specification version it targets, with post-releases used for code updates that don't change the specification version. It's actively maintained and carries no known security vulnerabilities.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are using PySTAC and need to represent additional temporal metadata (published, expires, unpublished) in your STAC items or catalogs. The package is actively maintained, has no security issues, and integrates cleanly with a single dependency. Install it only if your use case requires these extended timestamp fields; it is not needed for basic PySTAC workflows."},"id":"pystac-ext-timestamps","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pystac-ext-timestamps","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pystac-ext-timestamps.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pystac-ext-timestamps/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-10","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pystac-ext-timestamps","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Timestamps extension for PySTAC"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":3981812,"position":2418,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.1"}
