FAQPage Schema
How do I detect type errors in Python code?▼

Type checking detects type errors by analyzing Python code for inconsistencies between variable assignments, function arguments, and return values. Run `uvx ty check` in your project root to scan for type mismatches and receive detailed error reports.

Can I integrate type checking into my CI pipeline?▼

Yes, ty integrates into CI pipelines with multiple output formats and explicit exit codes. Use `uvx ty check` in your CI workflow; configure behavior via ty.toml for project-level options like Python version targeting and file exclusions.

What's the fastest way to run type checking locally during development?▼

ty provides fast type checking with minimal configuration overhead. Run `uvx ty check` in watch mode or target specific directories to get quick feedback on type errors without slowing your development loop.

Does ty support excluding files and targeting specific Python versions?▼

Yes, ty.toml configuration supports file exclusions and Python-version targeting. Define these project-level options in ty.toml to customize which files are checked and which Python version semantics ty applies.

How do I configure type checking for my Python project?▼

Configure type checking by creating a ty.toml file in your project root. This file lets you set project-level options including file patterns to exclude, Python version targets, and other type-checking behavior tailored to your codebase.
