It abstracts the HTTP communication layer through its single runtime dependency, requests, making it straightforward to integrate thermostat control into automation workflows.\n\nThe library is actively maintained and designed with Home Assistant integration in mind, though it can be used independently. With no known security vulnerabilities and a permissive MIT license, it presents a low-friction option for developers building home automation systems or custom integrations around Ecobee hardware.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you own an Ecobee3 thermostat and need programmatic control. The low install friction, active maintenance, permissive license, and lack of known vulnerabilities make it a sound choice. Verify Python version compatibility and API credential requirements before integrating into production systems."},"id":"python-ecobee-api","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/python-ecobee-api","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/python-ecobee-api.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/python-ecobee-api/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-05-29","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"python-ecobee-api","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Python API for talking to Ecobee thermostats"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":81481,"position":14224,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.4.1"}
