# types-click-spinner — Typing stubs for click-spinner

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 86.9K/mo

## What it is and what it does

types-click-spinner is a type stub package that bridges the gap between the click-spinner library and Python type checkers. It provides type information for click-spinner 0.1.11, allowing mypy, pyright, and other type checkers to understand and validate code that uses click-spinner for creating terminal spinner animations. The package is maintained as part of the typeshed project and is tested against current versions of major type checkers.

This package is primarily useful if you are working with an older version of click-spinner (0.1.11 or earlier) and want static type checking. The description explicitly notes that click-spinner 0.2.0 and later versions include their own type annotations, making this stub package redundant for newer versions. Installation is straightforward with no runtime dependencies, and it requires Python 3.10 or later.

Use it for:

- Add type checking to legacy projects using click-spinner 0.1.11 without upgrading the spinner library.
- Enable IDE autocomplete and type hints for click-spinner in codebases locked to older versions.
- Validate spinner usage in CI/CD pipelines using mypy or pyright on Python 3.10+.

## Worth the install?

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

Provides type stubs for the click-spinner package, enabling type checkers like mypy and pyright to validate code that uses click-spinner for terminal spinner animations.

Yes, but only if you are using click-spinner 0.1.11 or earlier and need type checking support. If you can upgrade to click-spinner 0.2.0 or later, uninstall this package—the library now includes native type annotations. For legacy codebases on older click-spinner versions, the low friction and permissive license make it a safe choice.

## Install

pip install types-click-spinner
uv add types-click-spinner
poetry add types-click-spinner

## Installing types-click-spinner

Before you install: Low install friction with no runtime dependencies. Actively maintained as part of the typeshed project, with recent releases tracking the underlying click-spinner package.

License in practice: Licensed under Apache-2.0 (permissive), allowing free use, modification, and distribution with minimal restrictions.

Quickstart:

pip install types-click-spinner

# Then use with a type checker in your project that imports click-spinner
# mypy or pyright will now provide type information for click-spinner

Requires Python 3.10 or later. Note: click-spinner 0.2.0+ includes its own type annotations, making this package unnecessary for newer versions.

Verify before relying:

- Whether click-spinner 0.1.11 is still actively used given that click-spinner 0.2.0+ includes native type annotations.
