pyobjc-framework-SharedWithYou

What it is and what it does

pyobjc-framework-sharedwithyou is a thin wrapper layer that exposes Apple's macOS SharedWithYou framework to Python developers through PyObjC. It allows Python code running on macOS to interact with shared content and collaboration features provided by the operating system, bridging the gap between Objective-C APIs and Python.

The package does not include its own documentation; instead, it relies on Apple's official framework documentation and PyObjC's general translation guidelines. It is a production-stable binding maintained as part of the larger PyObjC project, with wheels pre-built for multiple Python versions (3.10 through 3.15) on macOS. Installation requires both pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-SharedWithYouCore as runtime dependencies.

Use it for:

• Build macOS applications in Python that need to access shared content or collaboration features exposed by the OS
• Integrate Python code with macOS system frameworks for document sharing and collaborative workflows
• Develop cross-framework macOS tools that combine PyObjC bindings for multiple Apple frameworks

Worth the install?

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

Provides Python bindings for macOS's SharedWithYou framework, enabling access to shared content and collaboration features through PyObjC.

Yes, if you are developing on macOS and need to access the SharedWithYou framework from Python. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and carries a permissive MIT license. Install friction is moderate due to platform specificity, but wheels are pre-built for all supported Python versions. Not applicable on non-macOS systems.

Install

pyobjc-framework-sharedwithyou on PyPI

pip install pyobjc-framework-sharedwithyou

uv add pyobjc-framework-sharedwithyou

poetry add pyobjc-framework-sharedwithyou

Installing pyobjc-framework-SharedWithYou

Before you install

Medium install friction due to platform-specific wheels (macOS only, multiple Python versions). Active maintenance with a recent release (3 days old) and steady repository activity. Requires pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-SharedWithYouCore as runtime dependencies.

License in practice

MIT license permits commercial and private use with minimal restrictions, making it straightforward for most projects.

Quickstart

pip install pyobjc-framework-sharedwithyou

import SharedWithYou
# Access SharedWithYou framework classes and methods

macOS only; requires Python 3.10 or later and a compatible macOS system with the SharedWithYou framework available

Verify before relying

• Whether the framework requires specific macOS versions beyond the wheel metadata (e.g., minimum macOS 10.9 or 10.13 depending on Python version)
• Whether additional system frameworks or libraries must be present on the macOS system for the bindings to function
