Version 0.24.0

0.24.0 (6th April, 2023)

Changed

• The logging behaviour has been change to be more in-line with other standard Python logging usages. We no longer have a custom TRACE log level, and we no longer use the HTTPX_LOG_LEVEL environment variable to auto-configure logging. We now have a significant amount of DEBUG logging available at the network level. Full documentation is available at https://www.python-httpx.org/logging/ (#2547, encode/httpcore#648)
• The Response.iter_lines() method now matches the stdlib behaviour and does not include the newline characters. It also resolves a performance issue. (#2423)
• Query parameter encoding switches from using + for spaces and %2F for forward slash, to instead using %20 for spaces and treating forward slash as a safe, unescaped character. This differs from requests, but is in line with browser behavior in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox. Both options are RFC valid. (#2543)
• NetRC authentication is no longer automatically handled, but is instead supported by an explicit httpx.NetRCAuth() authentication class. See the documentation at https://www.python-httpx.org/advanced/#netrc-support (#2525)

Removed

• The rfc3986 dependancy has been removed. (#2252)

Version 0.23.3

0.23.3 (4th Jan, 2023)

Fixed

• Version 0.23.2 accidentally included stricter type checking on query parameters. This shouldn've have been included in a minor version bump, and is now reverted. (#2523, #2539)

Version 0.23.2

0.23.2 (2nd Jan, 2023)

Added

• Support digest auth nonce counting to avoid multiple auth requests. (#2463)

Fixed

• Multipart file uploads where the file length cannot be determine now use chunked transfer encoding, rather than loading the entire file into memory in order to determine the Content-Length. (#2382)
• Raise TypeError if content is passed a dict-instance. (#2495)
• Partially revert the API breaking change in 0.23.1, which removed RawURL. We continue to expose a url.raw property which is now a plain named-tuple. This API is still expected to be deprecated, but we will do so with a major version bump. (#2481)

Version 0.23.1

0.23.1

Added

• Support for Python 3.11. (#2420)
• Allow setting an explicit multipart boundary in Content-Type header. (#2278)
• Allow tuple or list for multipart values, not just list. (#2355)
• Allow str content for multipart upload files. (#2400)
• Support connection upgrades. See https://www.encode.io/httpcore/extensions/#upgrade-requests

Fixed

• Don't drop empty query parameters. (#2354)

Removed

• Drop .read/.aread from SyncByteStream/AsyncByteStream (#2407)
• Drop RawURL. (#2241)

Version 0.23.0

0.23.0 (23rd May, 2022)

Changed

• Drop support for Python 3.6. (#2097)
• Use utf-8 as the default character set, instead of falling back to charset-normalizer for auto-detection. To enable automatic character set detection, see the documentation. (#2165)

Fixed

• Fix URL.copy_with for some oddly formed URL cases. (#2185)
• Digest authentication should use case-insensitive comparison for determining which algorithm is being used. (#2204)
• Fix console markup escaping in command line client. (#1866)
• When files are used in multipart upload, ensure we always seek to the start of the file. (#2065)
• Ensure that iter_bytes never yields zero-length chunks. (#2068)
• Preserve Authorization header for redirects that are to the same origin, but are an http-to-https upgrade. (#2074)
• When responses have binary output, don't print the output to the console in the command line client. Use output like <16086 bytes of binary data> instead. (#2076)
• Fix display of --proxies argument in the command line client help. (#2125)
• Close responses when task cancellations occur during stream reading. (#2156)
• Fix type error on accessing .request on HTTPError exceptions. (#2158)

Version 0.22.0

0.22.0 (26th January, 2022)

Added

• Support for the SOCKS5 proxy protocol via the socksio package. (#2034)
• Support for custom headers in multipart/form-data requests (#1936)

Fixed

• Don't perform unreliable close/warning on __del__ with unclosed clients. (#2026)
• Fix Headers.update(...) to correctly handle repeated headers (#2038)

Version 0.21.3

0.21.3 (6th January, 2022)

Fixed

• Fix streaming uploads using SyncByteStream or AsyncByteStream. Regression in 0.21.2. (#2016)

Version 0.21.2

0.21.2 (5th January, 2022)

• HTTP/2 support for tunnelled proxy cases. (#2009)

Version 0.21.1

0.21.1 (16th November, 2021)

Fixed

• The response.url property is now correctly annotated as URL, instead of Optional[URL]. (#1940)

Version 0.21.0

0.21.0 (15th November, 2021)

The 0.21.0 release integrates against a newly redesigned httpcore backend.

Both packages ought to automatically update to the required versions, but if you are
seeing any issues, you should ensure that you have httpx==0.21.* and httpcore==0.14.* installed.

Added

• The command-line client will now display connection information when -v/--verbose is used.
• The command-line client will now display server certificate information when -v/--verbose is used.
• The command-line client is now able to properly detect if the outgoing request
  should be formatted as HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2, based on the result of the HTTP/2 negotiation.
