httpx v0.10.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-12-29 // over 4 years ago

  • 🚀 The 0.10.0 release makes some changes that will allow us to support both sync and async interfaces.

    In particular with streaming responses the response.read() method becomes response.aread(), and the response.close() method becomes response.aclose().

    If following redirects explicitly the response.next() method becomes response.anext().

    🛠 Fixed

    • End HTTP/2 streams immediately on no-body requests, rather than sending an empty body message. (Pull #682)
    • 👌 Improve typing for Response.request: switch from Optional[Request] to Request. (Pull #666)
    • Response.elapsed now reflects the entire download time. (Pull #687, #692)

    🔄 Changed

    • ➕ Added AsyncClient as a synonym for Client. (Pull #680)
    • Switch to response.aread() for conditionally reading streaming responses. (Pull #674)
    • Switch to response.aclose() and client.aclose() for explicit closing. (Pull #674, #675)
    • Switch to response.anext() for resolving the next redirect response. (Pull #676)

    ✂ Removed

    • ⚠ When using a client instance, the per-request usage of verify, cert, and trust_env have now escalated from raising a warning to raising an error. You should set these arguments on the client instead. (Pull #617)
    • ✂ Removed the undocumented request.read(), since end users should not require it.
