[BUG] Events import failed after updating to v2.6

[julianogv]

What is the bug?

I have a project with a folder named events and after updating the opensearch-py from 2.5 to 2.6, where the service time metrics was added, I'm receiving the error below because python tries to import the Events from my project's home directory and not from the Events lib. As events is a common name for folders and it might cause some trouble with other people too, do you have any suggestion for fixing this issue without renaming my project's folder to another name?

 File "/home/[redacted]/venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/opensearchpy/metrics/metrics_events.py", line 13, in <module>
    from events import Events
ImportError: cannot import name 'Events' from 'events'

How can one reproduce the bug?

Add a folder events to your project and them call from opensearchpy import OpenSearch

What is your host/environment?

python3.11 + ubuntu 20 + opensearch 2.6
