It abstracts the HTTP calls needed to send transactional emails, manage templates, and track delivery through SparkPost's infrastructure. The library is lightweight, depending only on requests, and provides both a direct API client and a Django email backend for framework integration.\n\nThe package was last updated in November 2021 and has received no commits since May 2023, placing it in abandoned status. It targets Python 2.7 and Python 3.4+, though modern Python support is unspecified. If you are already using SparkPost and have an existing integration, this client will work; for new projects, you should verify whether SparkPost now maintains a newer client or recommends a different approach.","worth_installing":"Yes, but only if you are already committed to SparkPost and have an existing integration. The package is abandoned (last release November 2021, no commits since May 2023), so it carries maintenance risk. For new projects, contact SparkPost to confirm this is still the recommended client or whether they provide an actively maintained alternative. If you are locked into this library, the low install friction and lack of known vulnerabilities make it safe to use as-is."},"id":"sparkpost","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sparkpost","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sparkpost.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/sparkpost/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-11-09","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"sparkpost","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"SparkPost Python API client"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":197266,"position":9764,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.3.10"}
