It was built to fill a gap where existing Statsd clients either lacked tag support or were tightly coupled to specific vendors. The library aims to be generic and work across different Statsd implementations, each of which may use different tag formats.\n\nThe package has no runtime dependencies and supports Python 3.6 and later. It is currently in Beta and marked as a work-in-progress, meaning some features may still be under development or not fully documented. The repository is not actively maintained (last release was in June 2023), though the code remains available and the repository is not archived.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need generic Statsd client with tag support and can accept a dormant package. The library has no dependencies, works with Python 3.6 and later, and carries no known vulnerabilities. However, be aware it is in Beta, marked WIP, and has not been updated since June 2023\u2014suitable for stable use cases but not for projects requiring active maintenance or frequent feature updates."},"id":"statsd-python","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/statsd-python","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/statsd-python.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/statsd-python/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-06-13","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"statsd-python","python_support":"supports_current","summary":null},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":394516,"position":6991,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.6.1"}
