This repository contains external type annotations (see PEP 484) for the lxml package.
NOTE: It was superceded by the more complete and externally maintained types-lxml fork.
To use these stubs with mypy, you have to
install the lxml-stubs package.
pip install lxml-stubs
Contributions should follow the same style guidelines as typeshed.
These type annotations were initially included in typeshed, but lxml's annotations are still incomplete and have therefore been extracted from typeshed to avoid unintentional false positive results.
The code was extracted by Jelle Zijlstra from the original typeshed codebase
and moved to a separate repository using git filter-branch.
Numerous people have contributed to the lxml stubs; see the git history for details.
