Typing stubs for gevent
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you use gevent and run static type checking. It's low-friction, actively maintained, permissively licensed, and tested against multiple type checkers. Install it in your development dependencies alongside gevent to catch type errors early. Not necessary if you don't use a type checker or don't use gevent.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.10 or later.
- Type stubs are only useful when used alongside a type checker like mypy, pyright, or similar.
- Low friction install with only two type-stub dependencies (types-greenlet, types-psutil).

What it is and what it does
types-gevent is a type stub package that bridges gevent and Python's static type-checking ecosystem. It provides type annotations for gevent's concurrency APIs—greenlets, pools, events, locks, and other primitives—so that tools like mypy, pyright, and other type checkers can validate code that uses gevent without runtime errors. The stubs are maintained as part of the typeshed project and are tested against multiple type checkers (mypy 2.3.0, pyright 1.1.411, and others) to ensure accuracy.
You install it alongside gevent in your development environment; it doesn't affect runtime behavior. It depends on two other type stub packages (types-greenlet and types-psutil) to provide complete type information for gevent's dependencies. The package tracks gevent 26.8.* versions and requires Python 3.10 or later.
Use it for
- Enable mypy or pyright to catch type errors in gevent-based concurrent code before runtime
- Document gevent API contracts in IDE autocompletion and hover tooltips
- Validate greenlet spawning and synchronization primitives in large async codebases
- Integrate gevent type checking into CI/CD pipelines without modifying gevent itself
