PEP 561 type stubs for yara-python 4.5.5

yara-python-stubs

PEP 561 type stubs for yara-python 4.5.5.

yara-python is distributed as a C extension and ships without type information. This package provides the corresponding .pyi files so that mypy, pyright, pylance, and other static analyzers can resolve the yara module's API: classes (Rules, Rule, Match, StringMatch, StringMatchInstance), module-level functions (compile, load, set_config), constants (CALLBACK_*, YARA_VERSION, ...) and exceptions (Error, SyntaxError, TimeoutError, WarningError).

Installation

pip install yara-python-stubs

The stubs are picked up automatically by any PEP 561-compliant type checker once installed in the same environment as yara-python. No imports or configuration changes are required in your code.

To install both the runtime library and these stubs together:

pip install "yara-python-stubs[runtime]"

Usage

import yara

rules: yara.Rules = yara.compile(
    source='rule example { strings: $a = "foo" condition: $a }'
)

matches: list[yara.Match] = rules.match(data=b"foobar")
for match in matches:
    print(match.rule, match.tags, match.meta)
    for string in match.strings:
        for instance in string.instances:
            print(instance.offset, instance.matched_data)

Versioning

Versions track upstream yara-python (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH) plus an extra component (.N) for revisions of the stubs themselves. 4.5.5 corresponds to yara-python 4.5.5.
