Changelog
### 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:
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`:
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:
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)).
