python-tripwire has been renamed to pytest-tripwire

This package is a deprecation shim. The project formerly published as python-tripwire is now published as pytest-tripwire.

The new name follows the standard pytest plugin convention (pytest-<name>) and reflects the project's identity as a pytest plugin.

Migrate

pip uninstall python-tripwire
pip install pytest-tripwire

Your imports do not change. The Python import name has always been tripwire:

import tripwire  # unchanged

Only the PyPI distribution name changed. python-tripwire was never an importable module name (Python disallows hyphens in import names), so no source code edits are required.

What this shim does

Installing python-tripwire now pulls in pytest-tripwire as a dependency. There is no Python code to ship — python-tripwire was only ever a PyPI distribution name. This shim will not receive further updates. New features, bug fixes, and security patches all land in pytest-tripwire.

Naming history

This project has been renamed twice:

1. bigfoot (original) — also published as a deprecation shim on PyPI
2. python-tripwire (transitional) — this package
3. pytest-tripwire (current) — the canonical name going forward

If you depend on bigfoot, see the bigfoot shim package, which now redirects to python-tripwire and transitively to pytest-tripwire.
