error: Name "capsule" is not defined

[mdorier]

I have a pybind11-based library that uses capsules (pybind11::capsule). When I try to use the stubs generated by pybind11-stubgen with mypy, I'm getting a lot of errors like the following:

stubs/_pymargo-stubs/__init__.pyi:318: error: Name "capsule" is not defined

This can be fixed by manually adding the "capsule" class to init.pyi, but it would be better if pybind11-stubgen could do it by itself.

Hi, thanks for the report.

PyCapsule does not provide any python interface to interact with, therefore it would be perfectly fine to annotate it as Any

_my_capsule: typing.Any  # PyCapsule()

... or even remove it from the stubs altogether (since you can't do much with it from python).

I'm inclined to implement the first option.
