Announcing RBS support for AWS SDK for Ruby V3

RBS is a language to describe the structure of Ruby programs. We are happy to announce that AWS SDK for Ruby V3 now supports RBS type signatures! RBS support is released in aws-sdk-core version 3.191.0 and in every service gem (such as aws-sdk-s3) that depends on this version of core. RBS signatures are currently code generated from the API models for the API client, errors, resource models, types/structures, and waiters.

Example Usage: Using RBS with RubyMine

RubyMine supports RBS natively when the rbs gem is installed and the version is >= 3.4. This allows you to get type hints for incompatible types in your IDE when using AWS SDK for Ruby V3.

Incompatible types are shown when creating a new Client.

Hovering over Client operations displays the expected types that the API defines.

For more information about RBS support in RubyMine, please visit their documentation.
