mypy-boto3-rds
Type annotations for boto3 RDS 1.43.62 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes. This is a low-friction, actively maintained type stub for a widely-used AWS service. Install it if you use boto3 RDS and want IDE autocompletion or static type checking. The single dependency and permissive license make it safe to add. Note that PyCharm users may experience slowness and should consider boto3-stubs-lite as an alternative.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.9 or later; boto3 must be installed separately in your environment.
- Low friction: single runtime dependency (typing-extensions) and a wheel distribution.
- Active maintenance with recent releases (14 days since last update) and a stable repository.

What it is and what it does
This package is a type stub library that adds static type information to boto3's RDS service client. It was generated from boto3 1.43.62 using mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and works with VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text, mypy, pyright, and other type-aware tools. When installed, it enables IDE code completion and catches type errors at development time without requiring explicit type annotations in your code.
The package depends only on typing-extensions and installs as a wheel. It supports Python 3.9 through 3.14 and is actively maintained. The stubs cover RDS client operations, paginators, and waiters. For production code, you can use TYPE_CHECKING guards to avoid a runtime dependency, though the documentation notes a workaround is needed for pylint compatibility.
Use it for
- Enable IDE autocomplete and type checking for boto3 RDS calls in VSCode with Pylance or PyCharm.
- Catch type errors in RDS client code using mypy or pyright before deployment.
- Document RDS API usage with explicit type hints for RDSClient, paginators, and waiters.
- Reduce development friction when working with boto3 RDS by getting immediate feedback on method signatures.
- Use in a TYPE_CHECKING block to provide types during development without adding a runtime dependency.
