Typeshed

I've reached out in the typeshed repo. Let's see if it's something they'd consider.

Hi snallapa, thanks for your interest! I had originally thought I would try to submit back to typeshed, but IIRC I read somewhere that they weren't adding more third party stuff any more and that stub packages like this were the way forward. I can't remember where I read that though, and my memory may not serve me correctly as it was some time ago now.

I'd be happy to try to submit if there was a chance it would be accepted.

I think they are taking PR for third party libraries now! I actually just added types for a library python/typeshed#3845 and they are usually pretty quick to respond. Hopefully, I did not misread any of their information or misunderstand something but lmk if I did. It would be great to have this included in typeshed

[shabbyrobe]

That's good to know! One of my concerns is that there doesn't appear to be any testing of the stubs in typeshed. The typed-django folks reached out to me to suggest I use their mypy testing plugin and it worked really well, I intended to use it more and more as I add updates. I'm slightly worried moving this to typeshed would mean that I have to remove that testing, which would make updating the stubs riskier. What are your thoughts?

[snallapa]

That is not something I really considered! I think it might be worth adding an issue on typeshed and talking to them about it as they can probably add their thoughts or maybe already have a solution?

Interested in being a part of this too. It looks like typeshed would expose these stubs to a lot more users!

I think it’d be worthwhile moving this to Typeshed Stubs , unless Google is willing to integrate it into the official Python grpc packages.

so that it is automatically included in mypy

Note that typeshed stubs for third party packages are not automatically included with mypy (at least, not in the last couple years). However, it is true that typeshed stubs are relatively more discoverable.

I've opened the PR: python/typeshed#11204
