mypy types

[CoJeAndy]

Hi, would it be possible to add method annotations ass string literals to get type annotations with mypy? I was using types-redis but it doesn't support some new functionality from the >=5.0.0.

If this is not possible could you please give me explanation what it would break? Thanks

from json import JSONDecoder, JSONEncoder

from typing import TYPE_CHECKING  

if TYPE_CHECKING:  
    from .json import JSON


class RedisModuleCommands:
    """This class contains the wrapper functions to bring supported redis
    modules into the command namespace.
    """

    def json(self, encoder=JSONEncoder(), decoder=JSONDecoder()) -> "JSON":
        """Access the json namespace, providing support for redis json."""

        from .json import JSON

        jj = JSON(client=self, encoder=encoder, decoder=decoder)
        return jj

Hi @CoJeAndy, that sounds like a great addition! I can make the change sometime next week, but if you have time, feel free to contribute by opening a PR. 🙂
