mypy-boto3-ivs-realtime

What it is and what it does

This package is a type-stub library generated by mypy-boto3-builder that adds precise type annotations to boto3's IVS Realtime service client. It enables IDEs and type checkers to provide accurate code completion, catch type errors at development time, and document the expected signatures of IVS Realtime API calls without requiring explicit type annotations in your code.

The package is designed as a development-time dependency—you install it in your environment to get IDE support and type checking, but it's not needed at runtime. It works with mypy, pyright, VSCode with Pylance, PyCharm, Emacs, and Sublime Text. The documentation notes that PyCharm may experience performance issues due to its handling of Literal type overloads, in which case the lighter boto3-stubs-lite variant is recommended.

Use it for:

• Enable IDE autocompletion and inline documentation for IVS Realtime API calls in VSCode or PyCharm
• Catch type errors in boto3 IVS Realtime code before runtime using mypy or pyright
• Document expected parameter types and return values for IVS Realtime client methods
• Support paginator and waiter type annotations for IVS Realtime operations
• Use TYPE_CHECKING guards to include type hints without adding production dependencies

Worth the install?

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

Provides type annotations and IDE autocompletion for the boto3 IVS Realtime service, compatible with mypy, pyright, VSCode, PyCharm, and other development tools.

Yes. Install this if you use boto3's IVS Realtime service and want IDE type support and static type checking. The single lightweight dependency, active maintenance, permissive MIT license, and zero known vulnerabilities make it a low-risk addition. PyCharm users should be aware of potential performance issues with Literal overloads and may prefer boto3-stubs-lite instead.

Installing mypy-boto3-ivs-realtime

Before you install

Low friction installation with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Actively maintained with recent releases; repository shows 670 stars and last commit on 2026-06-22.

License in practice

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

Quickstart

# Install
python -m pip install 'boto3-stubs[ivs-realtime]'

# Use in code
from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_ivs_realtime import IvsrealtimeClient

client: IvsrealtimeClient = Session().client("ivs-realtime")
# IDE now provides type checking and autocompletion

Requires Python 3.9 or later; boto3 must be installed separately as a runtime dependency (not included in this package).

Verify before relying

• Whether type coverage is complete for all IVS Realtime API operations in version 1.43.0
• Performance impact when used with PyCharm (documentation notes potential slowness with Literal overloads)
