What it is and what it does
boto3-stubs-full is a pre-generated type stub package that adds complete type annotations for boto3 version 1.43.71. It works by installing alongside boto3 and providing type information that IDEs, type checkers, and linters can read to offer code completion, inline documentation, and static type checking without requiring any changes to your actual boto3 code.
The package is generated automatically using mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and covers all available AWS services. It supports VSCode with Pylance, PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text, and command-line type checkers like mypy and pyright. The stubs are designed to be a drop-in installation—once installed, type checking and autocomplete work immediately without explicit type annotations in your code.
Use it for
- Enable IDE autocomplete and inline documentation for boto3 API calls in VSCode with Pylance.
- Run mypy or pyright type checking on boto3 code to catch type errors before runtime.
- Get IDE code completion for boto3 clients, resources, waiters, and paginators during development.
- Validate boto3 service method calls and return types in Emacs or Sublime Text.
- Maintain type safety in large AWS infrastructure projects using boto3.
