It abstracts away HTTP details and provides classes like ResourceManager, ApplicationMaster, HistoryServer, and NodeManager that map to YARN's core components.\n\nThe package supports optional authentication via SimpleAuth, Kerberos/SPNEGO (through requests_kerberos or gssapi), and proxy configuration. It is designed for Python 3.6 through 3.10 and has low install friction, depending only on requests. However, it is no longer actively maintained\u2014the last release was in November 2021 and the repository shows no commits since September 2022. Compatibility is explicitly tested only against Hadoop 3.2.1, 3.3.0, and 3.3.1; other versions may have API mismatches or missing functionality.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are working with Hadoop 3.2.1, 3.3.0, or 3.3.1 and need programmatic YARN API access from Python. The package is stable, has no known vulnerabilities, and low install friction. However, do not install if you require active maintenance, bug fixes, or compatibility with newer Hadoop versions\u2014the project is abandoned and has not been updated since 2022-09-26. Verify that your Hadoop version is explicitly supported before committing to it."},"id":"yarn-api-client","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/yarn-api-client","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/yarn-api-client.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/yarn-api-client/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-11-16","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"yarn-api-client","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Python client for Hadoop\u00ae YARN API"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":250373,"position":8633,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.0.3"}
