_type_checking

This module contains type aliases that should only be used when type checking as it would otherwise introduce a runtime dependency on typing_extensions for older python versions which is not desirable.

This was made mainly to accommodate sphinx-autodoc-typehints which cannot recognize type aliases from imported files if the type aliases are defined inside if TYPE_CHECKING:. So instead of placing the type aliases in normal modules inside TYPE_CHECKING guards they are in this file which should only be imported inside TYPE_CHECKING guards.

Internal use only

Things inside this module are not for use outside of RDFLib and this module is not part the the RDFLib public API.
