mypy-boto3-account

What it is and what it does

mypy-boto3-account is a type-stub package that adds complete type annotations to boto3's Account service. It is generated automatically from boto3's service definitions and enables static type checkers like mypy and pyright, as well as IDE code completion in VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, and Sublime Text, to understand boto3 Account client calls without requiring explicit type hints in your code.

The package is designed as a companion to boto3 itself—it does not provide runtime functionality, only type information. It includes annotations for the Account client, paginators, and service-specific type literals. Installation is straightforward via pip, and it integrates transparently with standard Python development workflows. The package supports Python 3.9 through 3.14 and has no heavy dependencies beyond typing-extensions.

Use it for:

• Enable IDE autocompletion and type checking for boto3 Account API calls in VSCode with Pylance or PyCharm.
• Catch Account service API misuse at development time using mypy or pyright before running code.
• Document Account client method signatures and return types in your codebase without manual annotations.
• Improve code maintainability by letting type checkers verify Account API usage across a large project.
• Use boto3 Account service with full IDE support in Emacs or Sublime Text via LSP and pyright.

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Provides type annotations and IDE autocompletion for the boto3 Account service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and compatible editors.

Yes, if you use boto3's Account service and want static type checking or IDE autocompletion. Installation is frictionless, maintenance is active, and the MIT license carries no restrictions. The only consideration is PyCharm users should be aware of potential performance issues with Literal overloads; the documentation recommends boto3-stubs-lite as an alternative in that case.

Install

mypy-boto3-account on PyPI

pip install mypy-boto3-account

uv add mypy-boto3-account

Installing mypy-boto3-account

Before you install

Low friction installation with only typing-extensions as a runtime dependency. Actively maintained with recent releases; last commit on 2026-06-22 and a release 18 days ago.

License in practice

MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution with minimal restrictions, making it safe for both open-source and commercial projects.

Quickstart

pip install mypy-boto3-account

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_account import AccountClient

client: AccountClient = Session().client("account")

Requires boto3 1.43.57 to be installed separately; requires Python 3.9 or later.

Verify before relying

• Whether the package works with boto3 versions other than 1.43.57, or if it requires exact version matching.
• Performance impact in PyCharm; documentation mentions potential slowness with Literal overloads (issue PY-40997).
