Python Deprecation Dates

A Python library to fetch and display Python version deprecation dates using data from the endoflife.date API.

Features:

• Fetch Python version end-of-life dates
• Get the latest Python version
• Support for custom request settings, including proxies and headers

Installation:

Install the library using pip:

pip install python-deprecation-dates

Usage:

from python_deprecation_dates import PythonEOLAPI

Create an API client

api_client = PythonEOLAPI()

Get all deprecation dates

deprecation_dates = api_client.get_deprecation_dates()
print(deprecation_dates)

Get the latest Python version

latest_version = api_client.get_latest_version()
print(f"The latest Python version is: {latest_version}")

Setting Proxies:

You can configure proxies using the request_settings parameter:

from python_deprecation_dates import PythonEOLAPI

# Define proxy settings
request_settings = {
    "proxies": {
        "http": "http://proxy.example.com:8080",
        "https": "http://proxy.example.com:8080"
    }
}

# Create an API client with proxy settings
api_client = PythonEOLAPI(request_settings=request_settings)

# Fetch deprecation dates through the proxy
deprecation_dates = api_client.get_deprecation_dates()
print(deprecation_dates)

Custom Headers:

Add custom headers for requests:

from python_deprecation_dates import PythonEOLAPI

# Define request settings with headers
request_settings = {
    "headers": {
        "User-Agent": "python-deprecation-dates/1.0"
    }
}

# Create an API client with custom headers
api_client = PythonEOLAPI(request_settings=request_settings)

# Fetch deprecation dates with custom headers
deprecation_dates = api_client.get_deprecation_dates()
print(deprecation_dates)
