pygerrit2
Client library for interacting with Gerrit's REST API
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you need to interact with Gerrit's REST API from Python and can accept dormant maintenance. The library is stable, has no dependencies, and carries no known vulnerabilities. However, verify compatibility with your Gerrit version and Python release before adopting, and be prepared to maintain a fork if upstream does not respond to issues.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- High install friction with no runtime dependencies.
- The package is dormant—last release was 2021-06-03, over 1898 days ago, and the last commit was 2023-11-29.
- While the repository is not archived, the lack of recent activity suggests limited ongoing maintenance.

What it is and what it does
Pygerrit2 is a Python client library that wraps Gerrit Code Review's REST API, allowing developers to programmatically query and interact with Gerrit instances. It provides a straightforward interface for common operations like retrieving projects, changes, and reviews without having to construct raw HTTP requests.
The library has no runtime dependencies, making it lightweight to install. However, it is in a dormant maintenance state—the last release was in June 2021, and while the repository received a commit in late 2023, there has been no active development for several years. It is classified as Production/Stable and supports Python 3.6 through 3.8, though actual compatibility with newer Python versions is unclear.
Use it for
- Automate code review workflows by querying Gerrit changes and their status programmatically.
- Build CI/CD integration tools that interact with Gerrit to fetch change metadata or post reviews.
- Generate reports on Gerrit projects, changes, and review metrics for analysis.
- Create custom tooling to manage Gerrit repositories and automate administrative tasks.
