Typing stubs for pyinstaller
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you use pyinstaller in code that you type-check. Install it alongside pyinstaller to enable type checkers to validate your build scripts. It has no runtime cost and no dependencies. If you don't use type checking or don't use pyinstaller, it provides no value.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.10 or later
- Low friction installation as a pure stub package with no runtime dependencies.
- Actively maintained with releases tracking pyinstaller versions closely.

What it is and what it does
types-pyinstaller is a type stub package that provides type annotations for pyinstaller's public API. It allows type checkers like mypy, pyright, and others to understand and validate code that calls pyinstaller functions and classes. The stubs are generated from the typeshed project, a centralized repository of type information for popular packages.
This is a partial stub package, meaning it covers commonly used parts of pyinstaller but may not have complete annotations for every function or class. It requires Python 3.10 or later and has no runtime dependencies—it only affects type checking, not code execution. When installed alongside pyinstaller, it enables IDEs and type checkers to catch type-related bugs before runtime.
Use it for
- Enable type checkers to validate scripts that import and use pyinstaller APIs
- Get IDE autocomplete and type hints for pyinstaller functions in editors with type support
- Validate that build automation code correctly calls pyinstaller's public methods
- Catch type mismatches in pyinstaller configuration during development
- Integrate pyinstaller type checking into CI/CD pipelines that enforce type safety
