Python idiomatic clients for Google Cloud Platform services.
The development status classifier on PyPI indicates the current stability of a package.
GA (general availability) indicates that the client library for a particular service is stable, and that the code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible ways unless either absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or with an extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests against GA libraries are addressed with the highest priority.
GA libraries have development status classifier Development Status :: 5 - Production/Stable.
Note
Sub-components of GA libraries explicitly marked as beta in the
import path (e.g. google.cloud.language_v1beta2) should be considered
to be beta.
Stable indicates that the code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible ways unless either absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or with an extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests against stable libraries are addressed with the highest priority.
Stable libraries have development status classifier Development Status :: 5 - Production/Stable.
Note
Sub-components of stable libraries explicitly marked as beta in the
import path (e.g. google.cloud.language_v1beta2) should be considered
to be beta.
Preview indicates that the client library for a particular service is still a work-in-progress and is more likely to get backwards-incompatible updates.
Preview libraries have development status classifier of
Development Status :: 3 - Alpha or Development Status :: 4 - Beta.
Beta indicates that the client library for a particular service is mostly stable and is being prepared for release. Issues and requests against beta libraries are addressed with a higher priority.
Beta libraries have development status classifier Development Status :: 4 - Beta.
Alpha indicates that the client library for a particular service is still a work-in-progress and is more likely to get backwards-incompatible updates.
Alpha libraries have development status classifier Development Status :: 3 - Alpha.
