What it is and what it does
types-pyaudio is a type stub package that provides type annotations for the pyaudio library. It allows static type checkers to understand the types and signatures of pyaudio's API, catching type errors during development rather than at runtime. The package is maintained as part of the typeshed project and is tested against mypy 1.20.0 and pyright 1.1.408.
You install it alongside pyaudio to enable type checking in your IDE or CI pipeline. It has no runtime dependencies and requires Python 3.10 or later. The stubs aim to cover pyaudio 0.2.* versions, allowing you to write type-safe code that uses pyaudio's audio functions.
Use it for
- Enable mypy or pyright to type-check code that imports and uses pyaudio for audio operations
- Catch type errors in audio processing code before runtime in a CI/CD workflow
- Get IDE autocomplete and type hints when writing code that calls pyaudio functions
- Validate that audio device configuration code passes static type analysis
