It depends only on requests and provides a simple object-oriented interface to query account information and control Rachio devices. The package is classified as Production/Stable and has been available since 2017, but has not received updates since early 2024, so it is no longer actively maintained.\n\nTypical usage involves instantiating a Rachio client with an API token and then calling methods on objects like person to retrieve account data or control irrigation schedules. The library is straightforward to install and has minimal dependencies, making it suitable for home automation or integration projects that need to interact with Rachio hardware.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you actively use Rachio hardware and need a Python API client. The package is stable, has no known vulnerabilities, and installs cleanly with minimal dependencies. However, be aware that it is dormant\u2014no updates since 2024-01-03\u2014so if Rachio's API has changed significantly or you encounter bugs, you will need to maintain a fork or seek an alternative. For new projects, verify that the API coverage still matches your needs."},"id":"rachiopy","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/rachiopy","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/rachiopy.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/rachiopy/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-01-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"RachioPy","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"A Python module for the Rachio API."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":75402,"position":14719,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.0"}
