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

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 101.2K/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package is a type-stub library that adds static type information to aiobotocore's Rekognition service bindings. It is generated automatically from aiobotocore's API definitions and works with Python type checkers (mypy, pyright) and IDEs (VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text) to provide inline documentation, autocompletion, and type validation as you write async code against AWS Rekognition.

The package is designed to be installed alongside aiobotocore and requires only typing-extensions as a runtime dependency. It supports Python 3.9 through 3.14 and is maintained in sync with aiobotocore releases. The type stubs cover client creation, paginators, waiters, and service-specific type definitions, though PyCharm users may experience performance issues with the full variant and should consider the lite version instead.

Use it for:

- Enable IDE autocompletion and type checking when writing async code that calls AWS Rekognition APIs via aiobotocore.
- Catch type errors in Rekognition client calls before runtime using mypy or pyright in CI/CD pipelines.
- Document Rekognition API parameters and return types inline in your editor without external API reference lookups.
- Reduce debugging time by catching incorrect method signatures or argument types at development time.
- Use with TYPE_CHECKING guards to get type hints in development without adding a production dependency.

## Worth the install?

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

Provides type annotations and IDE autocompletion support for aiobotocore's Rekognition service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and other tools.

Yes. Install this if you use aiobotocore with Rekognition and want type checking and IDE support. The package is lightweight, actively maintained, permissively licensed, and has no security vulnerabilities. The only caveat is PyCharm users may experience performance issues with the full stubs and should use the lite variant instead.

## Install

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

## Installing types-aiobotocore-rekognition

Before you install: Low install friction with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Actively maintained with a recent release; the package is generated automatically and kept in sync with aiobotocore 3.9.0.

License in practice: MIT license permits use in both open-source and proprietary projects with minimal restrictions; attribution is required but the permissive terms pose no practical barrier to adoption.

Quickstart:

# Install
python -m pip install types-aiobotocore-rekognition

# Use in your code
from aiobotocore.session import get_session
from types_aiobotocore_rekognition import RekognitionClient

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

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

Verify before relying:

- Whether the package works correctly with aiobotocore versions other than 3.9.0
- Performance impact on PyCharm when using full type stubs versus the lite variant
- Completeness of type coverage for all Rekognition API operations and edge cases
