mypy-boto3-redshift

What it is and what it does

mypy-boto3-redshift is a type-stub package that adds static type information to boto3's Redshift client, enabling IDE autocomplete and type checking. It is generated from boto3 1.43.72 using mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and works with VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text, mypy, pyright, and other type-aware tools.

The package is designed to be installed alongside boto3 and provides explicit type annotations for Redshift clients, paginators, waiters, and service resources. It supports modern Python versions (3.9 through 3.14) and is classified as production-stable. Installation is straightforward via pip, either standalone or as part of the boto3-stubs bundle.

Use it for:

• Enable IDE autocomplete and type hints when writing boto3 Redshift client code in VSCode or PyCharm.
• Catch type errors in Redshift API calls during development using mypy or pyright before runtime.
• Document Redshift API method signatures and parameters through explicit type annotations in your codebase.
• Improve code maintainability by making Redshift client usage self-documenting through type stubs.

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 Redshift service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and other tools.

Yes. Install this if you use boto3 to interact with Redshift and want static type checking and IDE autocomplete. It has low install friction, active maintenance, no known vulnerabilities, and a permissive MIT license. The only gotcha is PyCharm performance with Literal overloads—if you experience slowness, the documentation recommends boto3-stubs-lite as an alternative.

Install

Installing mypy-boto3-redshift

Before you install

Low friction install with a single runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Active maintenance as of 2026-08-14 with recent commits.

License in practice

MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution with minimal obligations.

Quickstart

pip install mypy-boto3-redshift

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_redshift import RedshiftClient

client: RedshiftClient = Session().client("redshift")

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

Verify before relying

• Whether type stubs cover all Redshift API operations or if some remain untyped.
• Performance impact when used with PyCharm (documentation mentions potential slowness with Literal overloads).
