mypy-boto3-health

What it is and what it does

This package is a stub-only type annotation library for boto3's AWS Health service. It provides complete type hints for the HealthClient, paginators, and type definitions, enabling static type checkers like mypy and pyright to validate boto3 code, and allowing IDEs to offer accurate autocompletion without requiring explicit type annotations in your code.

The stubs are generated from boto3 1.43.0 using mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and work with VSCode (via Pylance), PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text, and other tools that support Python type checking. Installation is straightforward—either install the standalone package or use boto3-stubs[health] for a bundled approach. The package has no production runtime cost since it's stubs-only and can be confined to development dependencies using TYPE_CHECKING guards.

Use it for:

• Enable IDE autocompletion and type checking for boto3 Health API calls in VSCode with Pylance or PyCharm.
• Validate AWS Health service code with mypy or pyright before deployment to catch type errors early.
• Provide explicit type annotations for HealthClient, paginators, and service resources in large codebases.
• Use in development environments while keeping the package out of production via TYPE_CHECKING conditional imports.
• Integrate with LSP-based editors (Emacs, Sublime Text) for real-time type feedback on Health service operations.

Worth the install?

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

Provides type annotations and IDE autocompletion for boto3's AWS Health service client, compatible with mypy, pyright, VSCode, PyCharm, and other development tools.

Yes. Install this if you use boto3's Health service and want type safety and IDE autocompletion. Low friction, actively maintained, MIT-licensed, no known vulnerabilities, and widely downloaded. The only caveat is PyCharm performance with full stubs—consider the lite variant if you experience slowness.

Install

mypy-boto3-health on PyPI

pip install mypy-boto3-health

uv add mypy-boto3-health

poetry add mypy-boto3-health

Installing mypy-boto3-health

Before you install

Low friction installation with a single runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Actively maintained with recent commits and stable production status.

License in practice

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

Quickstart

pip install mypy-boto3-health

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_health import HealthClient

client: HealthClient = Session().client("health")
# Type checking and IDE autocompletion now work

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

Verify before relying

• Whether PyCharm performance issues mentioned in the description (PY-40997) remain unresolved in current versions.
• Whether the lite variant is recommended as a default over full stubs for typical Health service usage.
