# types-aiobotocore-rds — Type annotations for aiobotocore RDS 3.9.0 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 1.6M/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package provides type stubs for aiobotocore's RDS (Relational Database Service) module, generated by mypy-boto3-builder. It enables static type checking and IDE code completion when working with async AWS RDS clients, paginators, and waiters. The stubs are compatible with mypy, pyright, VSCode Pylance, PyCharm, Emacs, and Sublime Text.

The package is a stub-only distribution (no runtime code) that sits alongside aiobotocore to enhance the development experience. It supports Python 3.9 through 3.14 and is marked as Production/Stable. Installation is straightforward via pip, with a single runtime dependency on typing-extensions. The documentation notes that PyCharm users may experience performance issues with the full type stubs and recommends the lite variant as an alternative.

Use it for:

- Enable IDE autocompletion and type hints when writing async RDS code with aiobotocore in VSCode with Pylance.
- Run mypy or pyright type checking on aiobotocore RDS client calls to catch type errors before runtime.
- Get code completion and parameter hints for RDSClient methods, paginators, and waiters in PyCharm or other IDEs.
- Use explicit type annotations for RDSClient, paginators, and waiters in production code with TYPE_CHECKING guards.
- Integrate type checking into CI/CD pipelines for async AWS RDS applications using mypy or pyright.

## Worth the install?

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

Provides type stubs and IDE autocompletion for aiobotocore's RDS service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and IDE code completion.

Yes. This is a lightweight, actively maintained stub package with no security vulnerabilities, permissive MIT licensing, and minimal install friction. Install it if you use aiobotocore for RDS and want IDE support or static type checking—it adds no runtime overhead. PyCharm users should be aware of potential performance issues with the full stubs and may prefer the lite variant.

## Install

pip install types-aiobotocore-rds
uv add types-aiobotocore-rds
poetry add types-aiobotocore-rds

## Installing types-aiobotocore-rds

Before you install: Low install friction with a single lightweight 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 with minimal restrictions, making it safe for both open-source and commercial projects.

Quickstart:

pip install types-aiobotocore-rds

from aiobotocore.session import get_session
from types_aiobotocore_rds import RDSClient

session = get_session()
async with session.create_client("rds") as client:
    client: RDSClient
    # Type checking and IDE completion now work

Requires aiobotocore 3.9.0 to be installed separately; Python 3.9 or later.

Verify before relying:

- Performance impact on PyCharm when using full type stubs (documentation mentions potential slowness with Literal overloads).
- Whether the lite variant (types-aiobotocore-lite) is recommended for specific IDE/checker combinations.
