mypy-boto3-location provides type annotations for the boto3 LocationService, enhancing developer experience with type checking, autocomplete, and static analysis in IDEs like VSCode and PyCharm. It keeps pace with boto3 releases, automatically generating stubs with `mypy-boto3-builder`. The current version is 1.42.3.

LocationServiceClient
from mypy_boto3_location.client import LocationServiceClient
from mypy_boto3_location.client import LocationServiceClient

This example demonstrates how to initialize a type-hinted LocationService client and use it to list geofences. It includes an explicit type annotation for the client and the response type, enabling full static analysis and autocomplete.

import os import boto3 from typing import TYPE_CHECKING if TYPE_CHECKING: from mypy_boto3_location.client import LocationServiceClient from mypy_boto3_location.type_defs import ListGeofencesResponseTypeDef def get_location_client() -> LocationServiceClient: """Initializes and returns a typed LocationService client.""" # AWS credentials will be picked up from environment variables (e.g., AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY) # or ~/.aws/credentials. REGION_NAME is important for LocationService. region = os.environ.get('AWS_REGION', 'us-east-1') return boto3.client('location', region_name=region) def list_all_geofences(): """Lists all geofences using the LocationService client.""" client = get_location_client() try: response: ListGeofencesResponseTypeDef = client.list_geofences(CollectionName='my-geofence-collection') print(f"Geofences found: {len(response['Entries'])}") for entry in response['Entries']: print(f" - Geofence ID: {entry['GeofenceId']}") except client.exceptions.ResourceNotFoundException: print("Geofence collection 'my-geofence-collection' not found or empty.") except Exception as e: print(f"An error occurred: {e}") if __name__ == '__main__': # This quickstart requires an existing LocationService geofence collection. # Replace 'my-geofence-collection' with an actual collection name in your AWS account. list_all_geofences()
Debug
Known issues
breakingSupport for Python 3.8 was removed in `mypy-boto3-builder` version 8.12.0. Users on Python 3.8 or older should upgrade their Python version.
fix
Upgrade Python to 3.9 or newer.
affects: mypy-boto3-builder >=8.12.0
breakingTypeDef naming conventions changed in `mypy-boto3-builder` version 8.9.0. Some TypeDefs for packed method arguments use shorter names, and conflicting `Extra` postfixes were moved. This could break code explicitly importing or referencing these TypeDefs.
fix
Review and update explicit TypeDef imports and references according to the new naming conventions.
affects: mypy-boto3-builder >=8.9.0
gotchaPyCharm users might experience slow performance or high CPU usage due to `Literal` overloads. It is recommended to use `boto3-stubs-lite` or disable PyCharm's internal type checker and rely on `mypy` or `pyright` instead.
fix
Install `boto3-stubs-lite[location]` instead of `mypy-boto3-location` or `boto3-stubs[location]`, or configure PyCharm to use an external type checker.
affects: All versions with PyCharm < 2023.2
gotchaFor Pylint compatibility, if `mypy-boto3-location` is a `TYPE_CHECKING` dependency, Pylint might complain about undefined variables. A common fix is to set types to `object` in non-`TYPE_CHECKING` mode.
fix
Wrap type imports with `if TYPE_CHECKING:` and define fallback `object` assignments for runtime, as shown in the example import section.
affects: All versions
