bpyutils

What it is and what it does

bpyutils is a general-purpose utility library that bundles common Python helper functions and tools into a single package. It offers both a Python API (via import) and a command-line interface for accessing its utilities. The package has no runtime dependencies, making installation lightweight and straightforward.

The library was designed to support Python 2.7 and Python 3.4 through 3.10, and classifiers indicate production-stable status. However, the package has been abandoned for over three years with no new releases or maintenance, so it will not evolve to support newer Python versions or address any issues that may arise.

Use it for:

• Quick access to a pre-built set of common utilities without adding multiple dependencies to a project.
• Command-line scripting when you need standard utility functions available from the shell.
• Legacy Python projects still running on Python 2.7 or early Python 3 versions that need a stable utility baseline.

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Provides a collection of common Python utilities accessible both as an importable module and a command-line tool.

No. While the package installs cleanly and carries a permissive license, its abandonment for 1430 days means it will not receive bug fixes, security updates, or compatibility improvements. For new projects, prefer actively maintained utility libraries; for legacy systems already using it, evaluate whether its utilities can be replaced or whether sticking with it poses acceptable risk.

Install

bpyutils on PyPI

pip install bpyutils

uv add bpyutils

poetry add bpyutils

Installing bpyutils

Before you install

Installation is frictionless with no runtime dependencies. However, the package is abandoned—last release was 1430 days ago—so it will not receive updates or maintenance.

License in practice

MIT License (permissive) means you can use, modify, and distribute this package freely with minimal restrictions.

Quickstart

pip install bpyutils

import bpyutils

# Or use the command-line interface:
# bpyutils --version

• Whether the package remains functional with modern Python versions despite being abandoned.
