Python + mypy + mixin = has no attribute error

Question

I have Vscode + mypy error in the UI interface: "EngineMixin" has no attribute "engine" for the next Mixin class

class EngineMixin:
    def prepare_start(self):
        self.engine.start()

    def prepare_stop(self):
        self.engine.stop()

    def __str__(self):
        output = super().__str__()
        output += f'\n{self.__class__.__name__} characteristics. Engine [{self.engine}]' # noqa
        return output

In fact, this error is shown only in Vscode UI interface. When I run mypy in cli, there are no errors. In general, I understand why this error appears, but is there any way to supress it in vscode?

For mixins that refer to the class they're being mixed into, you can use a type stub to let mypy know that self.engine is expected to exist

class EngineMixin:

    # Like this
    engine: Engine

    def prepare_start(self):
        self.engine.start()

    def prepare_stop(self):
        self.engine.stop()

    def __str__(self):
        output = super().__str__()
        output += f'\n{self.__class__.__name__} characteristics. Engine [{self.engine}]' # noqa
        return output
