mypy-boto3-controltower

What it is and what it does

This package is a type stub library that adds static type information to boto3's ControlTower service client. It is generated from boto3 1.43.0 and works with mypy, pyright, VSCode Pylance, PyCharm, Emacs, and Sublime Text to provide IDE autocomplete and type checking for ControlTower API calls.

The stubs enable developers to catch type errors before runtime and get inline documentation and parameter hints while writing AWS ControlTower code. It is a development-only dependency—the stubs themselves do not execute code, only guide type checkers and editors. Installation is straightforward via pip, and it integrates transparently with existing boto3 code without requiring explicit type annotations.

Use it for:

• Enable IDE autocomplete and parameter hints when writing boto3 ControlTower client code in VSCode or PyCharm.
• Catch type mismatches in ControlTower API calls during static analysis with mypy or pyright before deployment.
• Provide explicit type annotations for ControlTowerClient, paginators, and service resources in large AWS automation projects.
• Support Pylint and other linters by offering type information for ControlTower operations via TYPE_CHECKING guards.

Worth the install?

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

Provides type stubs and IDE autocomplete support for AWS ControlTower service calls via boto3, enabling static type checking in mypy, pyright, and editor environments.

Yes. Install if you use boto3 ControlTower in a Python project and want IDE autocomplete and static type checking. Low friction (one lightweight dependency), actively maintained, MIT-licensed, and no known vulnerabilities. Only skip if you have no type-checking tooling or do not use ControlTower.

Installing mypy-boto3-controltower

Before you install

Low install friction with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Actively maintained with recent releases; last commit 2026-06-22.

License in practice

MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution in both open-source and proprietary projects.

Quickstart

pip install mypy-boto3-controltower

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_controltower import ControlTowerClient

client: ControlTowerClient = Session().client("controltower")

Requires Python 3.9 or later; boto3 must be installed separately in your environment.

Verify before relying

• Whether the package works correctly with all listed Python versions (3.9–3.14) in practice.
• Performance impact on PyCharm; documentation mentions potential slowness with Literal overloads.
