# mypy-boto3-translate — Type annotations for boto3 Translate 1.43.0 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 317.0K/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package is a type stub library that adds static type information to boto3's Translate service client. It is generated automatically from boto3 1.43.0 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 autocomplete, parameter validation, and return-type inference for all Translate API calls without requiring explicit type annotations in your code.

The package contains type definitions for the TranslateClient, paginators, and service-specific data types. It is a stub-only package (no runtime code) with a single dependency on typing-extensions. Installation is straightforward via pip, though the documentation notes that PyCharm users may experience performance issues with the full boto3-stubs variant and recommends the boto3-stubs-lite alternative in such cases.

Use it for:

- Enable IDE autocomplete and type checking for boto3 Translate API calls in VSCode or other editors without manual type annotations.
- Catch type errors in Translate service calls during development using mypy or pyright before runtime.
- Provide explicit type hints for TranslateClient, paginators, and service responses in codebases that require strict type safety.
- Improve code maintainability by making Translate API parameter and return types visible to developers and linters.

## Worth the install?

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

Provides type annotations and IDE autocomplete support for AWS Translate service calls via boto3, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and other tools.

Yes, if you use boto3 Translate and want IDE autocomplete or static type checking. Install friction is minimal, maintenance is active, and the MIT license poses no restrictions. The only caveat: PyCharm users should monitor performance and consider boto3-stubs-lite if slowness occurs. No security vulnerabilities are known.

## Install

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

## Installing mypy-boto3-translate

Before you install: Low friction install with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Actively maintained with recent releases; repository shows 670 stars and last commit on 2026-06-22.

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

Quickstart:

pip install mypy-boto3-translate

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_translate import TranslateClient

client: TranslateClient = Session().client("translate")
# Type checking and IDE autocomplete now work on client calls

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

Verify before relying:

- Whether performance impact on PyCharm is acceptable for your codebase size (documentation notes potential slowness with Literal overloads).
- Whether boto3-stubs-lite variant would be more suitable for your IDE or RAM constraints.
