Dummy package for acryl-datahub
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No—install acryl-datahub directly instead. This package is a historical artifact that serves no purpose for end users. It exists only to prevent name squatting and redirect old install commands. If you need datahub functionality, use `pip install acryl-datahub`. If you already have this package, it will pull in acryl-datahub anyway, so there is no advantage to keeping it.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Installation is frictionless (pure Python wheel, single dependency on acryl-datahub), but the package itself is abandoned as of 1238 days ago.
- It functions only as a redirect; active development and maintenance happen in acryl-datahub.

What it is and what it does
datahub is a dummy package created by the acryl-datahub developers to occupy the PyPI name and prevent squatting. When installed, it pulls in acryl-datahub as its sole runtime dependency, ensuring that users who type `pip install datahub` end up with the correct package rather than a malicious or stale alternative.
This is not a functional tool itself—it is purely a namespace guard and convenience redirect. All actual data governance, metadata management, and API functionality lives in acryl-datahub. The package is abandoned (last release 2023-03-25) because it requires no maintenance; it exists only to route traffic to the real implementation.
Use it for
- Installing the correct datahub package when you search for 'datahub' on PyPI without knowing the real package name is acryl-datahub.
- Ensuring legacy scripts or documentation that reference `pip install datahub` continue to work without breaking.
- Protecting the datahub namespace from being claimed by a malicious or abandoned third party.
