mypy-boto3-mq

What it is and what it does

This package is a type-stub library that adds static type information to boto3's MQ service client. It is generated automatically from boto3 metadata and enables IDEs and type checkers to understand the shape, parameters, and return types of MQ API calls, providing code completion and catching type errors before runtime.

The package works by providing type annotations compatible with mypy, pyright, VSCode Pylance, PyCharm, Emacs, and Sublime Text. It depends only on typing-extensions and is designed as a development-time dependency—you can use TYPE_CHECKING guards to avoid including it in production builds. The annotations cover client methods, paginators, and service-specific literals and type definitions.

Use it for:

• Enable IDE autocomplete and inline documentation when writing boto3 MQ code in VSCode or PyCharm.
• Run mypy or pyright type checking on boto3 MQ code to catch parameter and return-type errors before deployment.
• Provide explicit type hints for MQClient, paginators, and service types in a codebase using boto3.
• Reduce development friction when working with AWS MQ by catching API misuse at edit time rather than runtime.

Worth the install?

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

Provides type annotations and IDE autocomplete support for boto3's MQ (message queue) service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and other tools.

Yes, if you use boto3 to interact with AWS MQ and want static type checking or IDE support. Install friction is minimal, maintenance is active, and the MIT license imposes no restrictions. The package is a pure stub library with no runtime overhead when used with TYPE_CHECKING guards. Skip only if you do not use boto3 MQ or have no need for type checking.

Install

mypy-boto3-mq on PyPI

pip install mypy-boto3-mq

uv add mypy-boto3-mq

poetry add mypy-boto3-mq

Installing mypy-boto3-mq

Before you install

Low install friction; single lightweight dependency on typing-extensions. Active maintenance with recent releases; last commit 2026-06-22 and release 31 days ago indicate ongoing support.

License in practice

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

Quickstart

pip install mypy-boto3-mq

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_mq import MQClient

client: MQClient = Session().client("mq")

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

Verify before relying

• Whether PyCharm performance issue PY-40997 remains unresolved and affects current versions.
• Specific IDE versions and configurations where type checking has been validated.
