API Notes

With pyfakefs 3.4, the public API has changed to be PEP-8 conform. The old API is deprecated, and will be removed in some future version of pyfakefs. You can suppress the deprecation warnings for legacy code with the following code:

from pyfakefs.deprecator import Deprecator

Deprecator.show_warnings = False

pyfakefs.fake_filesystem.FakeFileSystem:

CreateFile() -> create_file()

CreateDirectory() -> create_dir()

CreateLink() -> create_symlink()
