  PyPI and npm registry metadata endpoints, plus the Canvas Medical docs (docs.canvasmedical.com/sdk/canvas_cli/)
  and the github.com/canvas-medical organization.
note: >-
  Canvas Medical's first-party client story is Python-first: one actively released package (`canvas`)
  carries both the server-side plugin SDK and the `canvas` CLI. The JavaScript packages are the
  patient-facing embed widgets, and they have not been republished since 2022. `canvas-sdk` on PyPI is
  a Canvas LMS client by an unrelated author and is deliberately NOT listed here.
packages:
- language: python
  registry: pypi
  name: canvas
  url: https://pypi.org/project/canvas/
  install: pip install canvas
  alt_install: uv tool install canvas
  official: true
  version: 0.196.1
  published: '2026-08-13'
  summary: SDK to customize event-driven actions in your Canvas instance; also ships the `canvas` CLI.
  source_code: https://github.com/canvas-medical/canvas-plugins
  docs: https://docs.canvasmedical.com/sdk/
  note: >-
    The Canvas SDK and the Canvas CLI are the same distribution. Requires Python 3.11/3.12/3.13. The
    CLI self-checks PyPI for newer versions at most once every 12 hours (disable with
    CANVAS_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1). Released the day before this pass — the freshest first-party artifact
    Canvas ships.
- language: python
  registry: pypi
  name: canvas-cli
  url: https://pypi.org/project/canvas-cli/
  install: pip install canvas-cli
  official: true
  version: 1.3.4
  published: '2021-09-20'
  summary: A command-line tool for the Canvas Medical EMR system.
  status: superseded
  note: >-
    Legacy first-party CLI, last published 2021-09-20 and superseded by the `canvas` distribution.
    Recorded for provenance; not the CLI the current docs install.
- language: python
  registry: pypi
  name: fhirstarter
  url: https://pypi.org/project/fhirstarter/
  install: pip install fhirstarter
  official: true
  client: false
  version: 4.2.0
  published: '2026-07-31'
  summary: An ASGI FHIR API framework built on top of FastAPI and FHIR Resources.
  source_code: https://github.com/canvas-medical/fhirstarter
  note: >-
    First-party open source from the canvas-medical GitHub org, but a FHIR *server* framework — it is
    not a client library for the Canvas FHIR API. Listed for completeness, excluded from the SDK count.
- language: python
  registry: pypi
  name: pydian
  url: https://pypi.org/project/pydian/
  install: pip install pydian
  official: true
  client: false
  version: 0.4.3
  published: '2024-09-21'
  summary: Library for pythonic data interchange.
  source_code: https://github.com/canvas-medical/pydian
  note: First-party data-mapping utility, not a Canvas API client. Last released 2024-09-21.

  official: true
  version: 0.0.9
  published: '2022-02-24'
  source_code: https://github.com/canvas-medical/embed
  note: >-
    Patient self-scheduling embed widget. Last published 2022-02-24 at 0.0.9; the repository is still
    maintained, so the npm distribution trails the source.
- language: javascript

  official: true
  version: 0.0.9

  install: <script src="https://d1a32bn8n735rs.cloudfront.net/scheduler.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
  official: true
  version: null
  published: null
  note: >-
    CDN build of the scheduler embed, documented as "V1". The URL carries no version segment and no
    CDN metadata endpoint answers for a bare CloudFront object, so neither we nor a consumer can tell
    which build is being served — the distribution is unpinned. Checked, nothing to record.
- language: javascript
  registry: cdn
  name: appointments.js
  url: https://d16rsv1d4y8ohr.cloudfront.net/appointments.js
  install: <script src="https://d16rsv1d4y8ohr.cloudfront.net/appointments.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
  official: true
  version: null
  published: null
  note: >-
    CDN build of the appointments embed, documented as "V1". Unpinned URL, no CDN metadata endpoint —
    same finding as scheduler.js.
not_first_party:
- registry: pypi
  name: canvas-sdk
  url: https://pypi.org/project/canvas-sdk/
  reason: >-
    A read-only client for Canvas LMS (Instructure), by an unrelated author. The name collides with
    the Canvas Medical SDK; it is not a Canvas Medical package and is excluded.
