It allows type checkers like mypy and pyright to understand and validate the types of pysftp's API, catching type errors in code that uses pysftp before runtime. The package is generated from and maintained as part of the typeshed project, the standard repository of type stubs for the Python ecosystem.\n\nThe package targets pysftp version 0.2.* and has been tested with mypy 2.1.0 and pyright 1.1.410. It depends on types-paramiko for type information about paramiko, which pysftp itself uses. Installation is straightforward and adds no runtime overhead\u2014it only affects static analysis. However, the description explicitly notes that types-pysftp is unmaintained and will not receive updates; fixes should be contributed to typeshed directly.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you use pysftp and run static type checking with mypy or pyright. Install it alongside pysftp to enable type validation. Be aware that the package is unmaintained and targets only pysftp 0.2.*; if you use a different version or need updated stubs, contribute fixes to typeshed directly rather than expecting updates here."},"id":"types-pysftp","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/types-pysftp","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/types-pysftp.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/types-pysftp/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-06-13","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"types-pysftp","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Typing stubs for pysftp"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":126046,"position":11791,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.2.17.20260613"}
