It reads TOML configuration files into Python dictionaries and writes dictionaries back to TOML format. The library accepts both bytes (UTF-8 decoded) and unicode strings as input, making it straightforward to integrate into configuration-loading workflows.\n\nThe package is deprecated and no longer maintained. Its last release was in 2019, and the project's own documentation recommends using alternatives. While it remains functional for TOML 0.4.0 files and has no known vulnerabilities, new projects should consider more actively maintained options.","worth_installing":"No, unless you are maintaining legacy code already using pytoml. The project is explicitly deprecated and unmaintained since 2019. For new projects, use an actively maintained TOML parser instead. The package itself is stable and has no known vulnerabilities, but the lack of maintenance means no fixes for future TOML spec changes or Python compatibility issues."},"id":"pytoml","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytoml","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytoml.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pytoml/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2019-07-21","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pytoml","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"A parser for TOML-0.4.0"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":604635,"position":5803,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.21"}
