  Registry metadata queried 2026-09-02 from pypi.org/pypi/<pkg>/json,
  registry.npmjs.org/<pkg> and rubygems.org/api/v1/gems/<pkg>.json, plus the Socrata
  developer site (dev.socrata.com/libraries) that data.americorps.gov's own API
  documentation link points at.

  note: >-
    AmeriCorps publishes NO first-party client library in any registry. Its GitHub
    organization (github.com/AmeriCorps) contains a single repository — `.github`, last
    pushed 2024-05-01 — and no code. The packages below are clients for the Socrata SODA
    platform that hosts data.americorps.gov; they are first-party to Socrata / Tyler Data &
    Insights (or, for sodapy, to an independent maintainer), NOT to AmeriCorps, so every
    entry is official:false and no `SDKs` pointer is wired into apis.yml.
    Currency matters here: three of the four have not shipped a release in four to nine
    years, which is the abandonment signal an integrator should weigh before adopting one.
packages:
  - name: sodapy
    language: Python
    registry: pypi
    url: https://pypi.org/project/sodapy/
    repository: https://github.com/xmunoz/sodapy
    official: false
    first_party_to: independent maintainer (xmunoz)
    version: 2.2.0
    published: '2022-08-31'
    covers:
      - AmeriCorps Datasets API
      - AmeriCorps Metadata API
      - AmeriCorps Catalog API
    note: >-
      The most widely used Python client for the SODA read API. Wraps /resource/{4x4} and
      SoQL parameters and accepts an X-App-Token. Not published by Socrata and not by
      AmeriCorps; last release 2022-08-31.
  - name: socrata-py
    language: Python
    registry: pypi
    url: https://pypi.org/project/socrata-py/

    first_party_to: Socrata / Tyler Data & Insights (platform vendor)
    version: 1.2.0
    published: '2026-06-18'
    covers: []
    note: >-
      Socrata's own Python SDK, but for the PUBLISHING API (creating and revising datasets),
      not the public read API AmeriCorps exposes. Listed for completeness; an AmeriCorps data
      consumer has no use for it without publisher credentials. The only entry here still
      under active release.

    registry: rubygems
    url: https://rubygems.org/gems/soda-ruby
