It provides a client library to interact with Stream's API from your Python backend, handling feed creation, activity management (add, remove, retrieve), follow relationships, and user token generation for client-side integrations. The library supports both synchronous and asynchronous workflows via aiohttp, making it suitable for blocking or event-driven architectures.\n\nThe package depends on requests, pyjwt, pytz, and aiohttp to handle HTTP communication, JWT token generation, timezone operations, and async I/O. It's designed for server-side use; client-side integrations (web, iOS, Android) use separate SDKs. The library has been in active development since 2014 and is classified as production-stable.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is actively maintained, production-stable, has low install friction, carries no known vulnerabilities, and uses a permissive license. Install it if you are building a backend that needs to manage newsfeeds or activity streams via Stream's hosted service. If you are building client-side feed UI (web or mobile), use the appropriate client SDK instead."},"id":"stream-python","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/stream-python","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/stream-python.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/stream-python/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-10-01","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"stream-python","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Client for getstream.io.
