Changelog

1.11

We’ve just uploaded mypy 1.11 to the Python Package Index ([PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/mypy/)). Mypy is a static type checker for Python. This release includes new features, performance improvements and bug fixes. You can install it as follows:

 python3 -m pip install -U mypy

You can read the full documentation for this release on [Read the Docs](http://mypy.readthedocs.io).

Support Python 3.12 Syntax for Generics (PEP 695)

Mypy now supports the new type parameter syntax introduced in Python 3.12 ([PEP 695](https://peps.python.org/pep-0695/)).
This feature is still experimental and must be enabled with the `--enable-incomplete-feature=NewGenericSyntax` flag, or with `enable_incomplete_feature = NewGenericSyntax` in the mypy configuration file.
We plan to enable this by default in the next mypy feature release.

This example demonstrates the new syntax:

python
Generic function
def f[T](x: T) -> T: ...

reveal_type(f(1))   Revealed type is 'int'

Generic class
class C[T]:
 def __init__(self, x: T) -> None:
    self.x = x

c = C('a')
reveal_type(c.x)   Revealed type is 'str'

Type alias
type A[T] = C[list[T]]


This feature was contributed by Jukka Lehtosalo.


Support for `functools.partial`

Mypy now type checks uses of `functools.partial`. Previously mypy would accept arbitrary arguments.

This example will now produce an error:

python
from functools import partial

def f(a: int, b: str) -> None: ...

g = partial(f, 1)

Argument has incompatible type "int"; expected "str"
g(11)


This feature was contributed by Shantanu (PR [16939](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16939)).


Stricter Checks for Untyped Overrides

Past mypy versions didn't check if untyped methods were compatible with overridden methods. This would result in false negatives. Now mypy performs these checks when using `--check-untyped-defs`.

For example, this now generates an error if using `--check-untyped-defs`:

python
class Base:
 def f(self, x: int = 0) -> None: ...

class Derived(Base):
  Signature incompatible with "Base"
 def f(self): ...


This feature was contributed by Steven Troxler (PR [17276](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/17276)).


Type Inference Improvements

The new polymorphic inference algorithm introduced in mypy 1.5 is now used in more situations. This improves type inference involving generic higher-order functions, in particular.

This feature was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [17348](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/17348)).

Mypy now uses unions of tuple item types in certain contexts to enable more precise inferred types. Example:

python
for x in (1, 'x'):
  Previously inferred as 'object'
 reveal_type(x)   Revealed type is 'int | str'


This was also contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [17408](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/17408)).


Improvements to Detection of Overlapping Overloads

The details of how mypy checks if two `overload` signatures are unsafely overlapping were overhauled. This both fixes some false positives, and allows mypy to detect additional unsafe signatures.

This feature was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [17392](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/17392)).


Better Support for Type Hints in Expressions

Mypy now allows more expressions that evaluate to valid type annotations in all expression contexts. The inferred types of these expressions are also sometimes more precise. Previously they were often `object`.

This example uses a union type that includes a callable type as an expression, and it no longer generates an error:

python
from typing import Callable

print(Callable[[], int] | None)   No error


This feature was contributed by Jukka Lehtosalo (PR [17404](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/17404)).

1.10

We’ve just uploaded mypy 1.10 to the Python Package Index ([PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/mypy/)). Mypy is a static type checker for Python. This release includes new features, performance improvements and bug fixes. You can install it as follows:

 python3 -m pip install -U mypy

You can read the full documentation for this release on [Read the Docs](http://mypy.readthedocs.io).

Support TypeIs (PEP 742)

Mypy now supports `TypeIs` ([PEP 742](https://peps.python.org/pep-0742/)), which allows
functions to narrow the type of a value, similar to `isinstance()`. Unlike `TypeGuard`,
`TypeIs` can narrow in both the `if` and `else` branches of an if statement:

python
from typing_extensions import TypeIs

def is_str(s: object) -> TypeIs[str]:
 return isinstance(s, str)

def f(o: str | int) -> None:
 if is_str(o):
      Type of o is 'str'
     ...
 else:
      Type of o is 'int'
     ...


`TypeIs` will be added to the `typing` module in Python 3.13, but it
can be used on earlier Python versions by importing it from
`typing_extensions`.

This feature was contributed by Jelle Zijlstra (PR [16898](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16898)).

Support TypeVar Defaults (PEP 696)

[PEP 696](https://peps.python.org/pep-0696/) adds support for type parameter defaults.
Example:

python
from typing import Generic
from typing_extensions import TypeVar

T = TypeVar("T", default=int)

class C(Generic[T]):
...

x: C = ...
y: C[str] = ...
reveal_type(x)   C[int], because of the default
reveal_type(y)   C[str]


TypeVar defaults will be added to the `typing` module in Python 3.13, but they
can be used with earlier Python releases by importing `TypeVar` from
`typing_extensions`.

This feature was contributed by Marc Mueller (PR [16878](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16878)
and PR [16925](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16925)).

Support TypeAliasType (PEP 695)
As part of the initial steps towards implementing [PEP 695](https://peps.python.org/pep-0695/), mypy now supports `TypeAliasType`.
`TypeAliasType` provides a backport of the new `type` statement in Python 3.12.

python
type ListOrSet[T] = list[T] | set[T]


is equivalent to:

python
T = TypeVar("T")
ListOrSet = TypeAliasType("ListOrSet", list[T] | set[T], type_params=(T,))


Example of use in mypy:

python
from typing_extensions import TypeAliasType, TypeVar

NewUnionType = TypeAliasType("NewUnionType", int | str)
x: NewUnionType = 42
y: NewUnionType = 'a'
z: NewUnionType = object()   error: Incompatible types in assignment (expression has type "object", variable has type "int | str")  [assignment]

T = TypeVar("T")
ListOrSet = TypeAliasType("ListOrSet", list[T] | set[T], type_params=(T,))
a: ListOrSet[int] = [1, 2]
b: ListOrSet[str] = {'a', 'b'}
c: ListOrSet[str] = 'test'   error: Incompatible types in assignment (expression has type "str", variable has type "list[str] | set[str]")  [assignment]


`TypeAliasType` was added to the `typing` module in Python 3.12, but it can be used with earlier Python releases by importing from `typing_extensions`.

This feature was contributed by Ali Hamdan (PR [16926](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16926), PR [17038](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/17038) and PR [17053](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/17053))

Detect Additional Unsafe Uses of super()

Mypy will reject unsafe uses of `super()` more consistently, when the target has a
trivial (empty) body. Example:

python
class Proto(Protocol):
 def method(self) -> int: ...

class Sub(Proto):
 def method(self) -> int:
     return super().meth()   Error (unsafe)


This feature was contributed by Shantanu (PR [16756](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16756)).

Typeshed Updates

Please see [git log](https://github.com/python/typeshed/commits/main?after=6dda799d8ad1d89e0f8aad7ac41d2d34bd838ace+0&branch=main&path=stdlib) for full list of standard library typeshed stub changes.

1.9

We’ve just uploaded mypy 1.9 to the Python Package Index ([PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/mypy/)). Mypy is a static type checker for Python. This release includes new features, performance improvements and bug fixes. You can install it as follows:

 python3 -m pip install -U mypy

You can read the full documentation for this release on [Read the Docs](http://mypy.readthedocs.io).

Breaking Changes

Because the version of typeshed we use in mypy 1.9 doesn't support 3.7, neither does mypy 1.9. (Jared Hance, PR [16883](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16883))

We are planning to enable
[local partial types](https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/command_line.html#cmdoption-mypy-local-partial-types) (enabled via the
`--local-partial-types` flag) later this year by default. This change
was announced years ago, but now it's finally happening. This is a
major backward-incompatible change, so we'll probably include it as
part of the upcoming mypy 2.0 release. This makes daemon and
non-daemon mypy runs have the same behavior by default.

Local partial types can also be enabled in the mypy config file:

local_partial_types = True


We are looking at providing a tool to make it easier to migrate
projects to use `--local-partial-types`, but it's not yet clear whether
this is practical. The migration usually involves adding some
explicit type annotations to module-level and class-level variables.

Basic Support for Type Parameter Defaults (PEP 696)

This release contains new experimental support for type parameter
defaults ([PEP 696](https://peps.python.org/pep-0696)). Please try it
out! This feature was contributed by Marc Mueller.

Since this feature will be officially introduced in the next Python
feature release (3.13), you will need to import `TypeVar`, `ParamSpec`
or `TypeVarTuple` from `typing_extensions` to use defaults for now.

This example adapted from the PEP defines a default for `BotT`:
python
from typing import Generic
from typing_extensions import TypeVar

class Bot: ...

BotT = TypeVar("BotT", bound=Bot, default=Bot)

class Context(Generic[BotT]):
 bot: BotT

class MyBot(Bot): ...

type is Bot (the default)
reveal_type(Context().bot)
type is MyBot
reveal_type(Context[MyBot]().bot)

1.7

We’ve just uploaded mypy 1.7 to the Python Package Index ([PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/mypy/)). Mypy is a static type checker for Python. This release includes new features, performance improvements and bug fixes. You can install it as follows:

 python3 -m pip install -U mypy

You can read the full documentation for this release on [Read the Docs](http://mypy.readthedocs.io).

Using TypedDict for `**kwargs` Typing

Mypy now has support for using `Unpack[...]` with a TypedDict type to annotate `**kwargs` arguments enabled by default. Example:

python
Or 'from typing_extensions import ...'
from typing import TypedDict, Unpack

class Person(TypedDict):
 name: str
 age: int

def foo(**kwargs: Unpack[Person]) -> None:
 ...

foo(name="x", age=1)   Ok
foo(name=1)   Error


The definition of `foo` above is equivalent to the one below, with keyword-only arguments `name` and `age`:

python
def foo(*, name: str, age: int) -> None:
 ...


Refer to [PEP 692](https://peps.python.org/pep-0692/) for more information. Note that unlike in the current version of the PEP, mypy always treats signatures with `Unpack[SomeTypedDict]` as equivalent to their expanded forms with explicit keyword arguments, and there aren't special type checking rules for TypedDict arguments.

This was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi back in 2022 (PR [13471](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/13471)).

TypeVarTuple Support Enabled (Experimental)

Mypy now has support for variadic generics (TypeVarTuple) enabled by default, as an experimental feature. Refer to [PEP 646](https://peps.python.org/pep-0646/) for the details.

TypeVarTuple was implemented by Jared Hance and Ivan Levkivskyi over several mypy releases, with help from Jukka Lehtosalo.

Changes included in this release:

* Fix handling of tuple type context with unpacks (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16444](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16444))
* Handle TypeVarTuples when checking overload constraints (robjhornby, PR [16428](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16428))
* Enable Unpack/TypeVarTuple support (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16354](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16354))
* Fix crash on unpack call special-casing (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16381](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16381))
* Some final touches for variadic types support (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16334](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16334))
* Support PEP-646 and PEP-692 in the same callable (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16294](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16294))
* Support new `*` syntax for variadic types (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16242](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16242))
* Correctly handle variadic instances with empty arguments (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16238](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16238))
* Correctly handle runtime type applications of variadic types (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16240](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16240))
* Support variadic tuple packing/unpacking (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16205](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16205))
* Better support for variadic calls and indexing (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16131](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16131))
* Subtyping and inference of user-defined variadic types (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [16076](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16076))
* Complete type analysis of variadic types (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [15991](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15991))

New Way of Installing Mypyc Dependencies

If you want to install package dependencies needed by mypyc (not just mypy), you should now install `mypy[mypyc]` instead of just `mypy`:


python3 -m pip install -U 'mypy[mypyc]'


Mypy has many more users than mypyc, so always installing mypyc dependencies would often bring unnecessary dependencies.

This change was contributed by Shantanu (PR [16229](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16229)).

New Rules for Re-exports

Mypy no longer considers an import such as `import a.b as b` as an explicit re-export. The old behavior was arguably inconsistent and surprising. This may impact some stub packages, such as older versions of `types-six`. You can change the import to `from a import b as b`, if treating the import as a re-export was intentional.

This change was contributed by Anders Kaseorg (PR [14086](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/14086)).

Improved Type Inference

The new type inference algorithm that was recently introduced to mypy (but was not enabled by default) is now enabled by default. It improves type inference of calls to generic callables where an argument is also a generic callable, in particular. You can use `--old-type-inference` to disable the new behavior.

The new algorithm can (rarely) produce different error messages, different error codes, or errors reported on different lines. This is more likely in cases where generic types were used incorrectly.

The new type inference algorithm was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi. PR [16345](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16345) enabled it by default.

Narrowing Tuple Types Using len()

Mypy now can narrow tuple types using `len()` checks. Example:

python
def f(t: tuple[int, int] | tuple[int, int, int]) -> None:
 if len(t) == 2:
     a, b = t    Ok
 ...


This feature was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [16237](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16237)).

More Precise Tuple Lengths (Experimental)

Mypy supports experimental, more precise checking of tuple type lengths through `--enable-incomplete-feature=PreciseTupleTypes`. Refer to the [documentation](https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_line.html#enabling-incomplete-experimental-features) for more information.

More generally, we are planning to use `--enable-incomplete-feature` to introduce experimental features that would benefit from community feedback.

This feature was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [16237](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16237)).

Mypy Changelog

We now maintain a [changelog](https://github.com/python/mypy/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) in the mypy Git repository. It mirrors the contents of [mypy release blog posts](https://mypy-lang.blogspot.com/). We will continue to also publish release blog posts. In the future, release blog posts will be created based on the changelog near a release date.

This was contributed by Shantanu (PR [16280](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/16280)).

1.6

[Tuesday, 10 October 2023](https://mypy-lang.blogspot.com/2023/10/mypy-16-released.html)

We’ve just uploaded mypy 1.6 to the Python Package Index ([PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/mypy/)). Mypy is a static type checker for Python. This release includes new features, performance improvements and bug fixes. You can install it as follows:

 python3 -m pip install -U mypy

You can read the full documentation for this release on [Read the Docs](http://mypy.readthedocs.io).

Introduce Error Subcodes for Import Errors

Mypy now uses the error code import-untyped if an import targets an installed library that doesn’t support static type checking, and no stub files are available. Other invalid imports produce the import-not-found error code. They both are subcodes of the import error code, which was previously used for both kinds of import-related errors.

Use \--disable-error-code=import-untyped to only ignore import errors about installed libraries without stubs. This way mypy will still report errors about typos in import statements, for example.

If you use \--warn-unused-ignore or \--strict, mypy will complain if you use \ type: ignore\[import\] to ignore an import error. You are expected to use one of the more specific error codes instead. Otherwise, ignoring the import error code continues to silence both errors.

This feature was contributed by Shantanu (PR [15840](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15840), PR [14740](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/14740)).

Remove Support for Targeting Python 3.6 and Earlier

Running mypy with \--python-version 3.6, for example, is no longer supported. Python 3.6 hasn’t been properly supported by mypy for some time now, and this makes it explicit. This was contributed by Nikita Sobolev (PR [15668](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15668)).

Selective Filtering of \--disallow-untyped-calls Targets

Using \--disallow-untyped-calls could be annoying when using libraries with missing type information, as mypy would generate many errors about code that uses the library. Now you can use \--untyped-calls-exclude=acme, for example, to disable these errors about calls targeting functions defined in the acme package. Refer to the [documentation](https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_line.html#cmdoption-mypy-untyped-calls-exclude) for more information.

This feature was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [15845](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15845)).

Improved Type Inference between Callable Types

Mypy now does a better job inferring type variables inside arguments of callable types. For example, this code fragment now type checks correctly:

python
def f(c: Callable[[T, S], None]) -> Callable[[str, T, S], None]: ...
def g(*x: int) -> None: ...

reveal_type(f(g))   Callable[[str, int, int], None]


This was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [15910](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15910)).

Don’t Consider None and TypeVar to Overlap in Overloads

Mypy now doesn’t consider an overload item with an argument type None to overlap with a type variable:

python
overload
def f(x: None) -> None: ..
overload
def f(x: T) -> Foo[T]: ...
...


Previously mypy would generate an error about the definition of f above. This is slightly unsafe if the upper bound of T is object, since the value of the type variable could be None. We relaxed the rules a little, since this solves a common issue.

This feature was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [15846](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15846)).

Improvements to \--new-type-inference

The experimental new type inference algorithm (polymorphic inference) introduced as an opt-in feature in mypy 1.5 has several improvements:

*   Improve transitive closure computation during constraint solving (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [15754](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15754))
*   Add support for upper bounds and values with \--new-type-inference (Ivan Levkivskyi, PR [15813](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15813))

1.5

[Thursday, 10 August 2023](https://mypy-lang.blogspot.com/2023/08/mypy-15-released.html)

We’ve just uploaded mypy 1.5 to the Python Package Index ([PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/mypy/)). Mypy is a static type checker for Python. This release includes new features, deprecations and bug fixes. You can install it as follows:

 python3 -m pip install -U mypy

You can read the full documentation for this release on [Read the Docs](http://mypy.readthedocs.io).

Drop Support for Python 3.7

Mypy no longer supports running with Python 3.7, which has reached end-of-life. This was contributed by Shantanu (PR [15566](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15566)).

Optional Check to Require Explicit override

If you enable the explicit-override error code, mypy will generate an error if a method override doesn’t use the typing.override decorator (as discussed in [PEP 698](https://peps.python.org/pep-0698/#strict-enforcement-per-project)). This way mypy will detect accidentally introduced overrides. Example:

python
mypy: enable-error-code="explicit-override"

from typing_extensions import override

class C:
 def foo(self) -> None: pass
 def bar(self) -> None: pass

class D(C):
  Error: Method "foo" is not using override but is
  overriding a method
 def foo(self) -> None:
     ...

 override
 def bar(self) -> None:   OK
     ...


You can enable the error code via \--enable-error-code=explicit-override on the mypy command line or enable\_error\_code = explicit-override in the mypy config file.

The override decorator will be available in typing in Python 3.12, but you can also use the backport from a recent version of `typing_extensions` on all supported Python versions.

This feature was contributed by Marc Mueller(PR [15512](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15512)).

More Flexible TypedDict Creation and Update

Mypy was previously overly strict when type checking TypedDict creation and update operations. Though these checks were often technically correct, they sometimes triggered for apparently valid code. These checks have now been relaxed by default. You can enable stricter checking by using the new \--extra-checks flag.

Construction using the `**` syntax is now more flexible:

python
from typing import TypedDict

class A(TypedDict):
 foo: int
 bar: int

class B(TypedDict):
 foo: int

a: A = {"foo": 1, "bar": 2}
b: B = {"foo": 3}
a2: A = { **a, **b}   OK (previously an error)


You can also call update() with a TypedDict argument that contains a subset of the keys in the updated TypedDict:
python
a.update(b)   OK (previously an error)


This feature was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [15425](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15425)).

Deprecated Flag: \--strict-concatenate

The behavior of \--strict-concatenate is now included in the new \--extra-checks flag, and the old flag is deprecated.

Optionally Show Links to Error Code Documentation

If you use \--show-error-code-links, mypy will add documentation links to (many) reported errors. The links are not shown for error messages that are sufficiently obvious, and they are shown once per error code only.

Example output:

a.py:1: error: Need type annotation for "foo" (hint: "x: List[<type>] = ...")  [var-annotated]
a.py:1: note: See https://mypy.rtfd.io/en/stable/_refs.html#code-var-annotated for more info

This was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [15449](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15449)).

Consistently Avoid Type Checking Unreachable Code

If a module top level has unreachable code, mypy won’t type check the unreachable statements. This is consistent with how functions behave. The behavior of \--warn-unreachable is also more consistent now.

This was contributed by Ilya Priven (PR [15386](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15386)).

Experimental Improved Type Inference for Generic Functions

You can use \--new-type-inference to opt into an experimental new type inference algorithm. It fixes issues when calling a generic functions with an argument that is also a generic function, in particular. This current implementation is still incomplete, but we encourage trying it out and reporting bugs if you encounter regressions. We are planning to enable the new algorithm by default in a future mypy release.

This feature was contributed by Ivan Levkivskyi (PR [15287](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15287)).

Partial Support for Python 3.12

Mypy and mypyc now support running on recent Python 3.12 development versions. Not all new Python 3.12 features are supported, and we don’t ship compiled wheels for Python 3.12 yet.

*   Fix ast warnings for Python 3.12 (Nikita Sobolev, PR [15558](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15558))
*   mypyc: Fix multiple inheritance with a protocol on Python 3.12 (Jukka Lehtosalo, PR [15572](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15572))
*   mypyc: Fix self-compilation on Python 3.12 (Jukka Lehtosalo, PR [15582](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/15582))
*   mypyc: Fix 3.12 issue with pickling of instances with \_\_dict\_\_ (Jukka Lehtosalo, PR [15574
