# mypy-boto3-storagegateway — Type annotations for boto3 StorageGateway 1.43.0 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 251.6K/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package is a type-stub library that adds static type annotations for boto3's StorageGateway service. It is generated from boto3 1.43.0 using mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and works with IDEs (VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text) and type checkers (mypy, pyright) to provide code completion and catch type errors at development time rather than runtime.

The package contains no runtime logic—it is purely type information. You install it alongside boto3 in your development environment, and your type checker or IDE automatically uses it to understand StorageGateway client methods, paginators, and type definitions. It supports explicit type annotations for clients, paginators, and service-specific types, and can be safely excluded from production deployments using TYPE_CHECKING guards.

Use it for:

- Enable IDE autocomplete and inline documentation for StorageGateway API calls in VSCode or PyCharm.
- Catch StorageGateway API misuse (wrong argument types, missing required fields) before runtime using mypy or pyright.
- Write self-documenting code by annotating StorageGatewayClient types in function signatures and variable declarations.
- Integrate StorageGateway type checking into CI/CD pipelines using mypy or pyright without adding runtime dependencies.

## Worth the install?

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

Provides type annotations and IDE autocomplete support for boto3's StorageGateway service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and other tools.

Yes. Install this if you use boto3's StorageGateway service and want static type checking and IDE support. It has minimal install friction (one lightweight dependency), is actively maintained, carries no security vulnerabilities, and is licensed permissively. The only caveat is PyCharm users should monitor performance; if slow, switch to the lite variant or use mypy/pyright instead.

## Install

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

## Installing mypy-boto3-storagegateway

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

License in practice: MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution in both open-source and proprietary projects.

Quickstart:

pip install mypy-boto3-storagegateway

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_storagegateway import StorageGatewayClient

client: StorageGatewayClient = Session().client("storagegateway")

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

Verify before relying:

- Whether PyCharm performance issues mentioned in the docs (issue PY-40997) affect your specific use case or have been resolved.
- Whether the lite variant (boto3-stubs-lite) would be more suitable for your IDE if you experience performance degradation.
