It abstracts away token lifecycle management\u2014you configure it with an OAuth endpoint and token scopes, then call tokens.get() to retrieve a valid token. The library handles expiration transparently, fetching a new token on the next call after expiry.\n\nIt supports three modes: fetching tokens from an OAuth 2.0 endpoint (the default), reading pre-generated tokens from files on disk, or injecting tokens via environment variables for local testing. This makes it useful for applications that need to authenticate with multiple OAuth-protected services without manually managing token refresh logic.","worth_installing":"No, unless maintaining legacy Python 2.7 or 3.4\u20133.5 code. The package is abandoned (last release 2017-01-04, last commit 2019-03-19) and targets end-of-life Python versions. For new projects, use a modern OAuth library or your framework's built-in token handling. For existing deployments, evaluate whether migration is feasible."},"id":"stups-tokens","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/stups-tokens","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/stups-tokens.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/stups-tokens/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2017-01-04","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"stups-tokens","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Python library to manage OAuth access tokens"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":144229,"position":11158,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.19"}
