What it is and what it does
types-PyMySQL is a type stub package that provides type annotations for the PyMySQL database driver. It allows static type checkers like mypy, pyright, and ty to understand and validate code that uses PyMySQL, catching type errors before runtime. The package is maintained as part of the typeshed project and aims to cover PyMySQL version 1.2.*.
Type stubs are metadata-only packages with no runtime code—they exist purely to inform type checkers about the shape and types of an external library's API. Installing this package does not change how PyMySQL behaves; it only improves the development experience by enabling IDE autocomplete and static analysis of PyMySQL usage.
Use it for
- Enable mypy or pyright to type-check code that imports and uses PyMySQL without false positives.
- Get IDE autocomplete and inline type hints when writing PyMySQL database queries and connection code.
- Validate function signatures and return types in a codebase that depends on PyMySQL before deployment.
