MyPy Cannot Find Library Stubs for Specific Python Version
See original GitHub issueDisclaimer: This is not an issue per se, but a general question. I posted it to StackOverflow first, but there was no response, so I’m reposting it here in the hopes of finding answers.
I’m following the tutorial on type checking with mypy here.
When I run a nox session to run mypy against the code, the Python 3.7 check complains about mypy not being able to find stubs for some libraries (e.g. click) whereas the checks for Python 3.8 finish successfully. And until I ignored requests, that was part of errors in 3.7 too. Why does this happen?

This is strange, I get the same set of errors as before:
requestsfor 3.7 and 3.8, andclickandclick.testingfor 3.7 only, after deleting.mypy_cache. I think I will set this aside this issue for the moment and explore in detail once I complete the tutorials. I will close this issue.Thanks so much for taking time in helping me out with this issue, and thank you also for creating this series of helpful blog posts.
Apparently mypy’s cache can mask import errors that would otherwise occur.
.mypy_cacheI haven’t had time to look further into this. But if you experience this again, try removing
.mypy_cache.
