It separates imports into three sections (standard library, third-party, first-party), places import statements before from imports, splits multi-item from imports into individual lines, and removes duplicates. The tool uses static analysis to understand import classification.\n\nIt integrates as a pre-commit hook or standalone CLI tool and supports options for Python version targeting (e.g., --py3-plus to remove obsolete __future__ imports), adding or removing specific imports, replacing imports with alternatives, and handling application-specific module paths. The single-import-per-line style allows multiple developers to modify imports without creating merge conflicts, even when editing the same module.","worth_installing":"Yes. Low install friction, permissive MIT license, active maintenance, no known vulnerabilities, and a focused tool that solves a real problem (merge conflicts from import changes). Use it if your team wants deterministic import ordering enforced automatically, especially via pre-commit hooks."},"id":"reorder-python-imports","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/reorder-python-imports","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/reorder-python-imports.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/reorder-python-imports/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-10","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"reorder-python-imports","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Tool for reordering python imports"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":147672,"position":11053,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.17.0"}
