Pamela: yet another Python wrapper for PAM
There seems to be a glut of Python wrappers for PAM that have since been abandoned.
This repo merges two separate efforts:

gnosek/python-pam

adds wrappers for a few more calls, e.g. opening sessions
raises PamError on failure instead of returning False, with informative error messages


simplepam

adds Python 3 support
resets credentials after authentication, apparently for kerberos users



Why?
Both projects appear to be abandoned, with no response to issues or pull requests in at least a year, and I need it for JupyterHub.
Use it
Install:
pip install pamela

Test:
python -m pamela -a `whoami`
