Installation

# install only `mypy_boto3.s3` for S3 service annotations
pip install mypy-boto3[s3]

# or install multiple services
pip install mypy-boto3[s3][ec2]

# or install S3 service with docs
pip install mypy-boto3[s3-with-docs]

# or install all services
pip install mypy-boto3[all]

# or even install all boto3 services annotations
# WARNING: this will eat ~70 MB of space
pip install mypy-boto3[all-with-docs]

Usage

• Install mypy and optionally enable it in your IDE

• Install boto3

• Use mypy-boto3 to annotate your code to discover errors

  import boto3
  
  from mypy_boto3.s3 import Client, ServiceResource
  
  client: Client = boto3.client("s3")
  
  # IDE autocomplete suggests function name and arguments here
  client.create_bucket(Bucket="bucket")
  
  # (mypy) error: Missing positional argument "Key" in call to "get_object" of "Client"
  client.get_object(Bucket="bucket")
  
  # (mypy) error: Argument "Key" to "get_object" of "Client" has incompatible type "None"; expected "str"
  client.get_object(Bucket="bucket", Key=None)
  
  # explicitly set type to S3 ServiceResource
  resource: ServiceResource = boto3.Session(region_name="us-west-1").resource("s3")
  
  # IDE autocomplete suggests function name and arguments here
  bucket = resource.Bucket("bucket")
  
  # (mypy) error: Unexpected keyword argument "key" for "upload_file" of "Bucket"
  bucket.upload_file(Filename="my.txt", key="my-txt")
  

How it works

There is also a package mypy-boto3-builder that builds interface files from boto3 documentation.

Differences from boto3-type-annotations

• Fully type annotated
• mypy compatibility
• Generated types for return values and arguments
• Added ServiceResource sub-collections
• Support service-specific sub-modules (in progress)
• CLI interface for builder
• Modules documentation

What's next

• Add TypedDict types for arguments and return types to check keys and values
• Allow installation of sub-modules
• Always include docs and support them in generated documentation

Thank you

• Guys behind boto3-type-annotations, this package is based on top of their work
• black developers for awesome formatting tool
• mypy for doing all dirty work for us
