# types-aiobotocore-wafv2 — Type annotations for aiobotocore WAFV2 3.9.0 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 233.8K/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package is a type stub library that adds static type information to aiobotocore's WAFV2 service. It was generated using mypy-boto3-builder and provides type annotations compatible with VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text, mypy, pyright, and other IDEs and type checkers. The stubs enable IDE autocompletion, catch type errors before runtime, and provide inline documentation for WAFV2 API calls.

The package depends only on typing-extensions and installs with minimal friction. It supports Python 3.9 through 3.14 and is classified as production-stable. Type annotations are optional—you can use aiobotocore normally and add explicit type hints where needed, or rely on the stubs for full IDE integration without modifying your code.

Use it for:

- Enable IDE autocompletion and type hints when working with aiobotocore WAFV2 in VSCode or PyCharm
- Run mypy or pyright type checking on async AWS WAF code to catch errors before deployment
- Document WAFV2 API parameters and return types for team members using static analysis
- Use TYPE_CHECKING guards to include type stubs in development without adding production dependencies
- Migrate from synchronous boto3 to async aiobotocore while maintaining type safety

## Worth the install?

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

Provides type annotations and IDE autocompletion support for aiobotocore's WAFV2 service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and other tools.

Yes. Install this if you use aiobotocore with WAFV2 and want IDE autocompletion or static type checking. The package is lightweight, actively maintained, has no security issues, and carries a permissive MIT license. The only caveat is PyCharm's known performance issue with Literal overloads (PY-40997)—if you use PyCharm, consider the lite variant or use mypy/pyright instead.

## Install

pip install types-aiobotocore-wafv2
uv add types-aiobotocore-wafv2
poetry add types-aiobotocore-wafv2

## Installing types-aiobotocore-wafv2

Before you install: Low friction install with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Package is actively maintained with recent releases and no known vulnerabilities.

License in practice: MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution with minimal obligations—safe for both open-source and commercial projects.

Quickstart:

# Install
python -m pip install types-aiobotocore-wafv2

# Use in code
from aiobotocore.session import get_session
from types_aiobotocore_wafv2 import WAFV2Client

session = get_session()
async with session.create_client("wafv2") as client:
    client: WAFV2Client
    # Type checking and IDE completion now work

Verify before relying:

- Whether PyCharm performance issues mentioned in the description (PY-40997) remain unresolved or have been addressed in recent versions
