pyetimeoffice is a Python integration library for ETimeOffice biometric attendance systems and APIs.

It helps developers integrate ETimeOffice attendance devices and punch data into Django HRMS platforms, ERP systems, employee management software, and custom Python applications.

The library provides a simple interface for downloading attendance punch records, handling API responses, normalizing dates and times, and working with attendance data programmatically using HTTP Basic authentication.
