Flask-Redis changelog

Changelog History

• v0.4.0 Changes

  May 29, 2019

  • Reorganized the module and rewrote everything other than the library code, mainly packaging and CI. There are no user-facing changes in behavior.

• v0.3.0 Changes

  July 18, 2016

  • Backwards incompatible: The FlaskRedis.init_app method no longer takes
    a strict parameter. Pass this flag when creating your FlaskRedis
    instance, instead.
  • Backwards incompatible: The extension will now be registered under the
    0️⃣ (lowercased) config prefix of the instance. The default config prefix is
    'REDIS', so unless you change that, you can still access the extension via
    app.extensions['redis'] as before.
  • Backwards incompatible: The default class has been changed to
    redis.StrictRedis. You can switch back to the old redis.Redis class by
    specifying strict=False in the FlaskRedis kwargs.
  • 👍 You can now pass all supported Redis keyword arguments (such as
    decode_responses) to FlaskRedis and they will be correctly passed over
    to the redis-py instance. Thanks, @giyyapan!
  • Usage like redis_store['key'] = value, redis_store['key'], and
    👍 del redis_store['key'] is now supported. Thanks, @ariscn!

• v0.2.0 Changes

  April 15, 2015

  • 🗄 Made 0.1.0's deprecation warned changes final

• v0.1.0 Changes

  April 14, 2015

  • 🗄 Deprecation: Renamed flask_redis.Redis to flask_redis.FlaskRedis. Using the old name still works, but emits a deprecation warning, as it will be removed from the next version
  • 🗄 Deprecation: Setting a REDIS_DATABASE (or equivalent) now emits a deprecation warning as it will be removed in the version in favor of including the database number in REDIS_URL (or equivalent)
  • Added a FlaskRedis.from_custom_provider(provider) class method for using any redis provider class that supports instantiation with a from_url class method
  • ➕ Added a strict parameter to FlaskRedis which expects a boolean value and allows choosing between using redis.StrictRedis and redis.Redis as the defualt provider.
  • Made FlaskRedis register as a Flask extension through Flask's extension API
  • ✅ Rewrote test suite in py.test
  • Got rid of the hacky attribute copying mechanism in favor of using the __getattr__ magic method to pass calls to the underlying client
