Which is the ETCD3 officially recommended python client?

[hqsh]

I have use some ETCD3 clients in python. The best one of these is https://github.com/kragniz/python-etcd3.

But all of these have a lot of bugs or the projects are not maintained now.

So, I wonder which is the ETCD3 officially recommended python client?

Thank you!

That's the main client for Etcdv3 to my knowledge.

They maintain a list of clients here: https://etcd.io/docs/v3.5/integrations/#python

@davissp14 thanks! Closing as question is answered.

Packages that are not maintained anymore, should not be officially supported as a preferred packages.

@Machoney Can you recommend an actively maintained alternatives? I haven't had any luck finding one.

Personally, I stick to its http API (and websockets for watching). UNFORTUNATELY.
