installation

pip install auto-type-annotate

usage

this tool is intented to help you automatically add annotations while gradually typing a code base!

there's a few pre-requisites you'll need to do in order to use the tool successfully

first you'll need to make your codebase pass mypy with the following settings enabled:

• check_untyped_defs = true: this is needed to analyze types in functions we'd like to automatically type
• local_partial_types = true: this is a setting forced by dmypy -- which we'll be using to generate typing suggestions

you can check whether you're "ready" to use this by running the following:

dmypy stop
dmypy run

it should look something like:

$ dmypy stop
Daemon stopped
$ dmypy run
Daemon started
Success: no issues found in 6839 source files

once that passes -- and dmypy is still running: use the tool on whatever files you'd like to improve!

for instance after:

auto-type-annotate \
    --application-directories .:src \
    src/sentry/api/authentication.py

why not pyannotate?
