It wraps common file and directory operations\u2014such as temporary file creation, directory scanning, and file comparison\u2014into a reusable API designed for test automation. The package depends only on six for Python 2/3 compatibility, making it lightweight to install.\n\nThe package is abandoned: its last release was over 1401 days ago, and there are no active maintenance signals. It was part of the mozbase project, a suite of testing tools used internally by Mozilla. If you are working with legacy Mozilla test code or maintaining an older test suite that already depends on mozfile, it will install cleanly, but you should not adopt it for new projects. No known security vulnerabilities are recorded.","worth_installing":"No, unless you are maintaining legacy Mozilla test code. The package is abandoned with no recent updates and should not be adopted for new projects. If existing code already requires it, installation is low-friction, but consider migrating to actively maintained alternatives for new test infrastructure."},"id":"mozfile","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/mozfile","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/mozfile.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/mozfile/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2022-10-13","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"copyleft","name":"mozfile","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Library of file utilities for use in Mozilla testing"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":486608,"position":6390,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.0.0"}
