It abstracts HTTP communication through a clean Python interface, handling authentication, request formatting, and response parsing. The library depends on requests for HTTP calls, retrying for resilient network operations, python-dotenv for credential management, and six for Python 2/3 compatibility (legacy support).\n\nTypically used by teams running distributed web scraping operations who need to automate job submission, monitor execution, retrieve results, or integrate scraping workflows into larger data pipelines. The library is production-stable, actively maintained, and supports modern Python implementations including CPython and PyPy.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you use Scrapinghub for web scraping. The library is production-stable, actively maintained, has low install friction, permissive licensing, and no known vulnerabilities. It is the official client for Scrapinghub API integration in Python and is well-suited for teams automating scraping workflows. Not relevant if you do not use Scrapinghub's platform."},"id":"scrapinghub","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/scrapinghub","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/scrapinghub.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/scrapinghub/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-12","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"scrapinghub","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Client interface for Scrapinghub API"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":142117,"position":11225,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.9.0"}
