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

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 877.2K/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package provides type stub annotations for the aiobotocore SNS service (version 3.9.0), enabling static type checkers and IDEs to understand the structure and signatures of SNS client calls. It was generated by mypy-boto3-builder and works with mypy, pyright, VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, and Sublime Text. The stubs include type hints for clients, paginators, service resources, waiters, and type definitions, allowing developers to catch type errors at development time and get IDE autocomplete without writing explicit annotations.

The package is designed as a development-only dependency—it contains no runtime code, only type information. It requires Python 3.9 or later and depends only on typing-extensions. Installation is straightforward via pip, and it integrates transparently with aiobotocore once installed; developers write aiobotocore code as usual and gain type safety and IDE support automatically.

Use it for:

- Enable mypy or pyright type checking on aiobotocore SNS code to catch type errors before runtime.
- Get IDE autocomplete and inline documentation for SNS client methods and parameters in VSCode or PyCharm.
- Annotate SNS client types explicitly in codebases that use TYPE_CHECKING to avoid production dependencies.
- Validate paginator and waiter usage with full type information for SNS operations.
- Support type-safe async SNS operations in large teams where static analysis is part of the CI/CD pipeline.

## Worth the install?

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

Provides type stubs and IDE autocomplete support for aiobotocore SNS 3.9.0, enabling static type checking in mypy, pyright, and code editors.

Yes. This is a lightweight, actively maintained type stub package with no known vulnerabilities, permissive licensing, and low install friction. Install it if you use aiobotocore SNS and want type checking or IDE support; it's a standard practice in typed Python projects. Note: PyCharm users may experience performance issues with the full variant and should consider types-aiobotocore-lite instead.

## Install

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

## Installing types-aiobotocore-sns

Before you install: Low install friction with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Actively maintained with a recent release (12 days old) and no known vulnerabilities.

License in practice: MIT license permits free use, modification, and distribution with minimal restrictions—suitable for both open-source and commercial projects.

Quickstart:

pip install types-aiobotocore-sns

from aiobotocore.session import get_session
from types_aiobotocore_sns import SNSClient

session = get_session()
async with session.create_client("sns") as client:
    client: SNSClient  # type checking and IDE completion now work

Requires aiobotocore 3.9.0 to be installed separately; type checking requires mypy, pyright, or a compatible IDE.

Verify before relying:

- Performance impact when used with PyCharm (fact sheet notes potential slowness with Literal overloads, suggests lite variant as workaround).
- Whether the lite variant (types-aiobotocore-lite) is a better default for most users given the PyCharm caveats mentioned.
