  • v2.4.1 Changes

    September 09, 2014
    • ๐Ÿ”’ Now has a "security" package extras set, $ pip install requests[security]
    • Requests will now use Certifi if it is available.
    • Capture and re-raise urllib3 ProtocolError
    • ๐Ÿ›  Bugfix for responses that attempt to redirect to themselves forever (wtf?).
  • v2.4.0 Changes

    August 29, 2014

    Behavioral Changes

    • Connection: keep-alive header is now sent automatically.

    ๐Ÿ‘Œ Improvements

    • โฑ Support for connect timeouts! Timeout now accepts a tuple (connect, read) which is used to set individual connect and read timeouts.
    • Allow copying of PreparedRequests without headers/cookies.
    • โšก๏ธ Updated bundled urllib3 version.
    • ๐Ÿ”จ Refactored settings loading from environment -- new Session.merge_environment_settings.
    • Handle socket errors in iter_content.
  • v2.3.0 Changes

    May 16, 2014

    API Changes

    • New Response property is_redirect, which is true when the library could have processed this response as a redirection (whether or not it actually did).
    • โฑ The timeout parameter now affects requests with both stream=True and stream=False equally.
    • The change in v2.0.0 to mandate explicit proxy schemes has been reverted. Proxy schemes now default to http://.
    • The CaseInsensitiveDict used for HTTP headers now behaves like a normal dictionary when references as string or viewed in the interpreter.

    ๐Ÿ›  Bugfixes

    • No longer expose Authorization or Proxy-Authorization headers on redirect. Fix CVE-2014-1829 and CVE-2014-1830 respectively.
    • Authorization is re-evaluated each redirect.
    • On redirect, pass url as native strings.
    • Fall-back to autodetected encoding for JSON when Unicode detection fails.

    • Correctly honor decode_unicode even if it wasn't used earlier in the same response.
    • ๐Ÿ‘ Stop advertising compress as a supported Content-Encoding.
    • The Response.history parameter is now always a list.
    • ๐Ÿ›  Many, many urllib3 bugfixes.

    • Avoid crashing when attempting to get authentication credentials from ~/.netrc when running as a user without a home directory.
    • Use the correct pool size for pools of connections to proxies.
    • Fix iteration of CookieJar objects.

  • v2.1.0 Changes

    • Cookies set on individual Requests through a Session (e.g. via Session.get()) are no longer persisted to the Session.
    • Clean up connections when we hit problems during chunked upload, rather than leaking them.
    • Return connections to the pool when a chunked upload is successful, rather than leaking it.
    • Match the HTTPbis recommendation for HTTP 301 redirects.
    • Prevent hanging when using streaming uploads and Digest Auth when a 401 is received.
    • Values of headers set by Requests are now always the native string type.

  • v2.0.0 Changes

    September 24, 2013

    API Changes:

    • Keys in the Headers dictionary are now native strings on all Python versions, i.e. bytestrings on Python 2, unicode on Python 3.
    • Proxy URLs now must have an explicit scheme. A MissingSchema exception will be raised if they don't.
    • Timeouts now apply to read time if Stream=False.
    • RequestException is now a subclass of IOError, not RuntimeError.
    • Added new method to PreparedRequest objects: PreparedRequest.copy().
    • โšก๏ธ Added new method to Session objects: Session.update_request(). This method updates a Request object with the data (e.g. cookies) stored on the Session.
    • Added new method to Session objects: Session.prepare_request(). This method updates and prepares a Request object, and returns the corresponding PreparedRequest object.
    • Added new method to HTTPAdapter objects: HTTPAdapter.proxy_headers(). This should not be called directly, but improves the subclass interface.
    • httplib.IncompleteRead exceptions caused by incorrect chunked encoding will now raise a Requests ChunkedEncodingError instead.
    • Invalid percent-escape sequences now cause a Requests InvalidURL exception to be raised.
    • HTTP 208 no longer uses reason phrase "im_used". Correctly uses "already_reported".
    • HTTP 226 reason added ("im_used").
