# mypy-boto3-pricing — Type annotations for boto3 Pricing 1.43.0 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 283.2K/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package is a type-stub library that adds complete type annotations for the AWS boto3 Pricing service. It is generated automatically using mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and works with mypy, pyright, VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text, and other type-aware editors and linters. When installed, it enables IDE code completion and static type checking on boto3 Pricing client calls without requiring explicit type annotations in your code.

The package contains type definitions for the PricingClient, paginators, and service-specific types. It is designed as a stub-only library (no runtime code), so it can be safely imported only during type checking using TYPE_CHECKING guards to avoid production dependencies. The single runtime dependency is typing-extensions, keeping install friction minimal.

Use it for:

- Enable IDE autocomplete and type hints when writing boto3 Pricing API calls in VSCode or PyCharm.
- Run mypy or pyright static type checking on code that uses boto3.client('pricing') to catch type errors before runtime.
- Provide explicit type annotations for PricingClient, paginators, and service responses in large codebases.
- Use with TYPE_CHECKING guards to get type support in development without adding a production dependency.

## Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts above — verify before relying.

Provides type annotations and IDE autocomplete support for the boto3 Pricing service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and compatible editors.

Yes, if you use boto3 Pricing service and want static type checking or IDE autocomplete. Install friction is minimal, maintenance is active, and the MIT license is permissive. PyCharm users should be aware of a known performance issue with Literal overloads (PyCharm issue PY-40997); consider boto3-stubs-lite as an alternative if you experience slowness.

## Install

pip install mypy-boto3-pricing
uv add mypy-boto3-pricing
poetry add mypy-boto3-pricing

## Installing mypy-boto3-pricing

Before you install: Low friction install with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Actively maintained as of 2026-06-22 with consistent releases.

License in practice: MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution with minimal legal constraints.

Quickstart:

pip install mypy-boto3-pricing

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_pricing import PricingClient

client: PricingClient = Session().client("pricing")

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

Verify before relying:

- Whether the package works with boto3 versions other than 1.43.0 or if it requires exact version matching.
- Performance impact in PyCharm relative to boto3-stubs-lite, since the description flags a known PyCharm performance issue.
