httpx v0.13.0.dev0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-04-30 // almost 4 years ago

  • 🚀 The 0.13.0.dev0 is a pre-release version. To install it, use pip install httpx --pre.

    🚀 This release switches to httpcore for all the internal networking, which means:

    • 🔀 We're using the same codebase for both our sync and async clients.
    • 🔀 HTTP/2 support is now available with the sync client.
    • We no longer have a urllib3 dependency for our sync client, although there is still an optional URLLib3Dispatcher class.

    🚀 It also means we've had to remove our UDS support, since maintaining that would have meant having to push back our work towards a 1.0 release, which isn't a trade-off we wanted to make.
