What it is and what it does
uc-micro-py is a Python port of the JavaScript uc.micro library, providing a lightweight Unicode data file subset designed specifically for linkify-it-py projects. It supplies essential Unicode character classifications without the overhead of full Unicode databases.
The package has no runtime dependencies of its own, making it a minimal addition to the dependency tree. It is actively maintained, supports Python 3.10–3.14, and is marked production-stable. According to its description, the package content is intended for linkify-it-py project needs.
Use it for
- Serving as a dependency for linkify-it-py to enable URL and email detection in text
- Reducing overall dependency size by supplying only necessary Unicode information rather than full datasets
- Supporting text processing pipelines that require reliable character classification across different encodings
