Instead of manually writing plugin manifests, you define your plugin logic in Python using a declarative, hook-based approach, and Spaceforge automatically generates the required manifest configuration. The framework depends on PyYAML for configuration parsing, click for CLI support, pydantic for data validation, Jinja2 for template rendering, and mergedeep for configuration merging.\n\nThe package targets infrastructure and DevOps teams who want to extend Spacelift's capabilities without wrestling with manifest syntax. It's currently in Alpha status, having been released in August 2025, and supports Python 3.10 and later. The project is actively maintained with recent commits, though it remains relatively new and has not yet accumulated significant community adoption or a large user base.","worth_installing":"Yes, with conditions. Install if you are actively building Spacelift plugins and prefer Python-first development over manifest authoring. The low install friction, permissive license, and active maintenance make it a reasonable choice. However, the Alpha status and limited real-world adoption mean you should verify that the framework's hook types and capabilities match your plugin requirements before committing to it in production."},"id":"spaceforge","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/spaceforge","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/spaceforge.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/spaceforge/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-02","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"spaceforge","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A Python framework for building Spacelift plugins"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":103568,"position":12796,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.8.0"}
