# getdaft — getdaft is now daft

License: unclear · Maintenance: aging · Downloads: 190.7K/mo

## What it is and what it does

getdaft is a deprecated package that has been renamed to daft. The package itself contains no active functionality—it exists only to inform users that they should install daft instead. The fact sheet indicates the package is inactive and has not been maintained for over a year.

If you encounter getdaft in a dependency list or documentation, you should replace it with daft. Installing getdaft will not provide the dataframe functionality or any other features; it is a shell pointing users to the correct package name.

Use it for:

- Migrating legacy code that references getdaft to use the renamed daft package instead
- Resolving dependency conflicts when getdaft appears in old requirements files
- Understanding that getdaft is no longer maintained and daft is the active successor

## Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts above — verify before relying.

This package is a deprecated redirect to the renamed `daft` package and should not be installed directly.

No. Do not install getdaft. This package is inactive and deprecated. Install daft instead, which is the active renamed successor. Using getdaft will not provide any functionality and leaves you on an unmaintained package.

## Install

pip install getdaft
uv add getdaft
poetry add getdaft
