It wraps Python's standard datetime and UUID facilities rather than exposing raw millisecond values or strings, making it natural to use in Pythonic code. The main use case is creating sortable, time-ordered identifiers suitable for database primary keys or distributed systems where you want both uniqueness and temporal ordering.\n\nThe package explicitly avoids the older abandoned `uuid7` package on PyPI, which implemented a draft RFC with incorrect timestamps. Since Python's standard library has no UUIDv7 support yet, this fills that gap for developers who need RFC 9562-compliant UUIDs with timestamp extraction. It has no runtime dependencies beyond the standard library.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need RFC 9562-compliant UUIDv7 generation with Python datetime integration and no external dependencies. The package is new (first release 2025-07-03) and marked aging, so verify that maintenance will continue before adopting it in production systems. It explicitly solves the problem of the older, broken `uuid7` package on PyPI, so check that you're not accidentally installing the wrong one."},"id":"uuid7-standard","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/uuid7-standard","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/uuid7-standard.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/uuid7-standard/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-07-04","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"uuid7-standard","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"UUIDv7 with the final standard.
