It lets you define data remapping logic as VRL programs and apply them to Python dictionaries through a Transform object. The package compiles to native code via Rust, providing performance benefits for data pipeline operations.\n\nThe typical workflow is to instantiate a Transform with a VRL program string, then call its remap() method on data dictionaries. VRL supports field manipulation, function calls (like upcase! and uuid_v7()), and conditional logic. The project is minimal and dormant\u2014last updated in May 2024\u2014with no runtime dependencies beyond Python itself.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are already using Vector and want to apply VRL transforms within Python code. The permissive license and zero runtime dependencies make it low-risk to add. However, the project's dormant status and lack of documentation beyond a single example mean you should verify that VRL's feature set meets your transformation needs and be prepared to work from the Vector VRL documentation directly."},"id":"pyvrl","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyvrl","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyvrl.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pyvrl/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-05-16","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pyvrl","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Exposes Vector VRL to Python"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":575818,"position":5935,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.0.2"}
