types-pyaudio

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

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Provides type hints for the pyaudio library, enabling static type checkers like mypy and pyright to validate code that uses pyaudio.

Yes, if you use pyaudio and want static type checking. Installation is frictionless, the package is actively maintained, and it's licensed permissively. Install it as a dev dependency alongside pyaudio to enable type safety in your audio code.

Install

types-pyaudio on PyPI

pip install types-pyaudio

uv add types-pyaudio

poetry add types-pyaudio

Installing types-pyaudio

Before you install

Low friction installation with no runtime dependencies. Actively maintained as part of the typeshed project with recent releases.

License in practice

Apache-2.0 permissive license allows use in most projects without significant restrictions.

Quickstart

pip install types-pyaudio

# In your code, import pyaudio normally
import pyaudio

# Type checkers will now understand pyaudio's types
audio = pyaudio.PyAudio()

Requires Python 3.10 or later

Verify before relying

• Whether these stubs cover all pyaudio 0.2.* versions or only specific patch releases
• Whether the stubs are automatically updated when pyaudio itself changes
