Joe Gregorioed72cba2012-08-28 12:19:28 -0400160.7.5
17 Keys are lowercase in a Response object, regardless of how Response object is constructed.
18 Add control so that Authorization: headers aren't forwarded on a 3xx response by default.
19 Set the reason correctly when running on App Engine. Patch from Alain Vongsouvanh. Reviewed in http://codereview.appspot.com/6422051/
20 Fix proxy socks for SSL connections. Fixes issue #199.
21 You can now set httplib2.RETRIES to the number of retries before a request
22 is considered to fail It is set to a default of 2 to mimic the traditional
23 behavior of httplib2.
24
25 The following issues have been addressed:
26
27 223 HEAD requests fail calling the close() method of ResponseDict instance.
28 222 Can't disable cert validation in appengine
29 204 Credentials can leak in HTTP redirects

Joe Gregoriob850bd02012-03-02 08:37:22 -0800350.7.3
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -040036 ProxyInfo objects now can construct themselves from environment
37 variables commonly-used in Unix environments. By default, the Http
38 class will construct a ProxyInfo instance based on these environment
39 variables. To achieve the previous behavior, where environment
40 variables are ignored, pass proxy_info=None to Http().
41
42 The following issues have been addressed:
43
44 Issue 159: automatic detection of proxy configuration.
Joe Gregoriob850bd02012-03-02 08:37:22 -080045 Issue 179: Allow unicode in proxy hostname.
46 Issue 194: Added support for setuptools.
47 Fixes for HTTP CONNECT proxies.

Joe Gregoriob2cfdf62011-06-16 10:11:13 -0400490.7.1
50 Fix failure to install cacerts.txt for 2.x installs.
51
Joe Gregoriob0c82ca2011-06-13 15:13:11 -0400520.7.0
53 The two major changes in this release are SSL Certificate
54 checking and App Engine support. By default the certificates
55 of an HTTPS connection are checked, but that can be disabled
56 via disable_ssl_certificate_validation. The second change
57 is that on App Engine there is a new connection object
58 that utilizes the urlfetch capabilities on App Engine, including
59 setting timeouts and validating certificates.
60
61 The following issues have been addressed:
62
63 Fixes issue 72. Always lowercase authorization header.
64 Fix issue 47. Redirects that become a GET should not have a body.
65 Fixes issue 19. Set Content-location on redirected HEAD requests
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -040066 Fixes issue 139. Redirect with a GET on 302 regardless of the originating method.
67 Fixes issue 138. Handle unicode in headers when writing and retrieving cache entries. Who says headers have to be ASCII!
Joe Gregoriob0c82ca2011-06-13 15:13:11 -040068 Add certificate validation. Work initially started by Christoph Kern.
69 Set a version number. Fixes issue # 135.
70 Sync to latest version of socks.py
71 Add gzip to the user-agent, in case we are making a request to an app engine project: http://code.google.com/appengine/kb/general.html#compression
72 Uses a custom httplib shim on App Engine to wrap urlfetch, as opposed
73 Add default support for optimistic concurrency on PATCH requests
74 Fixes issue 126. IPv6 under various conditions would fail.
75 Fixes issue 131. Handle socket.timeout's that occur during send.
76 proxy support: degrade gracefully when socket.socket is unavailable

81 The following issues have been addressed:
82
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -040083 #51 - Failure to handle server legitimately closing connection before request body is fully sent
84 #77 - Duplicated caching test
Joe Gregoriof3116552009-12-28 13:02:42 -050085 #65 - Transform _normalize_headers into a method of Http class
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -040086 #45 - Vary header
87 #73 - All files in Mercurial are executable
88 #81 - Have a useful .hgignore
89 #78 - Add release tags to the Mercurial repository
90 #67 - HEAD requests cause next request to be retried
Joe Gregoriof3116552009-12-28 13:02:42 -050091
92 Mostly bug fixes, the big enhancement is the addition of proper Vary: header
93 handling. Thanks to Chris Dent for that change.
94
95 The other big change is the build process for distributions so that both python2 and python3
96 are included in the same .tar.gz/.zip file.
97
Joe Gregorio66611ff2009-07-19 01:32:17 -0400980.5.0
99
100 Added Python 3 support
101
102 Fixed the following bugs:
103

110
Joe Gregorio891439e2009-07-28 10:52:36 -0400111 Also fixed a deprecation warning that appeared between Python 3.0 and 3.1.
Joe Gregorio66611ff2009-07-19 01:32:17 -0400112
joe.gregorio5fcc1992007-10-23 15:12:17 +00001130.4.0
jcgregorio14644372007-07-30 14:13:37 +0000114
joe.gregorio5fcc1992007-10-23 15:12:17 +0000115 Added support for proxies if the Socksipy module is installed.
116
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -0400117 Fixed bug with some HEAD responses having content-length set to
joe.gregorio5fcc1992007-10-23 15:12:17 +0000118 zero incorrectly.
119
120 Fixed most except's to catch a specific exception.
jcgregorio14644372007-07-30 14:13:37 +0000121
122 Added 'connection_type' parameter to Http.request().
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -0400123
joe.gregorio5fcc1992007-10-23 15:12:17 +0000124 The default for 'force_exception_to_status_code' was changed to False. Defaulting
125 to True was causing quite a bit of confusion.
jcgregorio14644372007-07-30 14:13:37 +0000126
127
jcgregorio463a8db2007-03-09 03:27:14 +00001280.3.0
129 Calling Http.request() with a relative URI, as opposed to an absolute URI,
130 will now throw a specific exception.
131
132 Http() now has an additional optional parameter for the socket timeout.
133
134 Exceptions can now be forced into responses. That is, instead of
135 throwing an exception, a good httlib2.Response object is returned
136 that describe the error with an appropriate status code.
137
138 Many improvements to the file cache:
139
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -0400140 1. The names in the cache are now much less
jcgregorio463a8db2007-03-09 03:27:14 +0000141 opaque, which should help with debugging.
142
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -0400143 2. The disk cache is now Apache mod_asis compatible.
144
jcgregorio463a8db2007-03-09 03:27:14 +0000145 3. A Content-Location: header is supplied and stored in the
146 cache which points to the original requested URI.
147
148 User supplied If-* headers now override httplib2 supplied
149 versions.
150
151 IRIs are now fully supported. Note that they MUST be passed in
152 as unicode objects.
153
154 Http.add_credentials() now takes an optional domain to restrict
155 the credentials to being only used on that domain.
156
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -0400157 Added Http.add_certificate() which allows setting
jcgregorio463a8db2007-03-09 03:27:14 +0000158 a key and cert for SSL connnections.
159
160 Many other bugs fixed.
161
162
jcgregorioa0713ab2006-07-01 05:21:34 +00001630.2.0
164 Added support for Google Auth.
jcgregorio2d66d4f2006-02-07 05:34:14 +0000165
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -0400166 Added experimental support for HMACDigest.
jcgregorioa0713ab2006-07-01 05:21:34 +0000167
jcgregorio92088922006-07-01 05:53:21 +0000168 Added support for a pluggable caching system. Now supports
169 the old system of using the file system and now memcached.
170
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -0400171 Added httplib2.debuglevel which turns on debugging.
jcgregorio2d66d4f2006-02-07 05:34:14 +0000172
jcgregorio92088922006-07-01 05:53:21 +0000173 Change Response._previous to Response.previous.
174
175 Addded Http.follow_all_redirects which forces
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -0400176 httplib2 to follow all redirects, as opposed to
jcgregorio92088922006-07-01 05:53:21 +0000177 following only the safe redirects. This makes the
178 GData protocol easier to use.
179
180 All known bugs fixed to date.
181
jcgregorio8421f272006-02-14 18:19:51 +00001820.1.1
jcgregorio2d66d4f2006-02-07 05:34:14 +0000183
jcgregorio4177ca12006-02-16 10:50:58 +0000184 Fixed several bugs raised by James Antill:
jcgregorio2d66d4f2006-02-07 05:34:14 +0000185 1. HEAD didn't get an Accept: header added like GET.
186 2. HEAD requests did not use the cache.
187 3. GET requests with Range: headers would erroneously return a full cached response.
jcgregorio8421f272006-02-14 18:19:51 +0000188 4. Subsequent requests to resources that had timed out would raise an exception.
jcgregorio2d66d4f2006-02-07 05:34:14 +0000189 And one feature request for 'method' to default to GET.
190
Jason R. Coombs43840892011-08-09 10:30:46 -0400191 Xavier Verges Farrero supplied what I needed to make the
jcgregorio4177ca12006-02-16 10:50:58 +0000192 library work with Python 2.3.
jcgregorio8421f272006-02-14 18:19:51 +0000193
jcgregorio1eed40f2006-02-15 18:56:46 +0000194 I added distutils based setup.py.
