It handles both app-level and user-level OAuth authentication, automatically managing token refresh via callbacks. The library exposes the full Helix API surface through async generators and coroutines, supports real-time event subscriptions through EventSub (with pluggable transports), and includes a chat bot framework for joining channels, listening to messages, and responding to commands and subscription events.\n\nThe package is built on aiohttp for HTTP operations and python-dateutil for timestamp handling, making it suitable for long-running bots and event-driven applications. It targets Python 3.7+ and is classified as Production/Stable. Authentication setup is straightforward for app credentials, while user authentication can leverage a built-in browser-based OAuth flow or manual token management.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and a permissive license. It provides a complete, production-ready implementation of Twitch's modern APIs with good async/await ergonomics. Install it if you need to integrate Twitch API, EventSub, or chat functionality into a Python application."},"id":"twitchapi","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/twitchapi","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/twitchapi.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/twitchapi/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-05-23","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"twitchAPI","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"A Python 3.7+ implementation of the Twitch Helix API, EventSub and Chat"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":99284,"position":13030,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"4.5.0"}
