It provides both a programmatic API and command-line tools to parse ReqIF and ReqIFz (compressed) files into Python objects, unparse them back to XML, validate them against internal checks and the official OMG schema, format them with consistent indentation, and anonymize them for safe sharing. The library depends on jinja2, lxml, openpyxl, and xmlschema for XML handling and templating.\n\nTypical workflows include reading requirements from ReqIF files exported by commercial tools, transforming or filtering them programmatically, and writing them back out; validating ReqIF files for schema compliance; pretty-printing hand-written or poorly formatted ReqIF XML; and anonymizing sensitive requirement data before sending files to third parties for debugging. The library logs diagnostics through Python's standard logging module and supports progress callbacks for long-running parse and unparse operations on large files.","worth_installing":"Yes. The library is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries no known vulnerabilities, and uses a permissive Apache-2.0 license. It fills a clear niche for ReqIF handling in Python. Install it if you work with ReqIF files or need to integrate requirements data from tools that export this format."},"id":"reqif","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/reqif","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/reqif.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/reqif/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-11","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"reqif","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Python library for ReqIF format.
