httpx 1.4.0 has been released. ``` HTTPX.get("https://gitlab.com/honeyryderchuck/httpx <https://gitlab.com/honeyryderchuck/httpx>") ``` HTTPX is an HTTP client library for the Ruby programming language. Among its features, it supports: * HTTP/2 and HTTP/1.x protocol versions * Concurrent requests by default * Simple and chainable API * Proxy Support (HTTP(S), CONNECT tunnel, Socks4/4a/5) * Simple Timeout System * Lightweight by default (require what you need) And also: * Compression (gzip, deflate, brotli) * Streaming Requests * Authentication (Basic Auth, Digest Auth, AWS Sigv4) * Expect 100-continue * Multipart Requests * Cookies * HTTP/2 Server Push * H2C Upgrade * Automatic follow redirects * International Domain Names * GRPC * Circuit breaker * WebDAV * SSRF Filter * Datadog integration * Faraday integration * Webmock integration * Sentry integration Here are the updates since the last release: # 1.4.0 ## Features ### `:content_digest` plugin The `:content_digest` can be used to calculate the digest of request payloads and set them in the `"content-digest"` header; it can also validate the integrity of responses which declare the same `"content-digest"` header. More info under https://honeyryderchuck.gitlab.io/httpx/wiki/Content-Digest ## Per-session connection pools This architectural changes moves away from per-thread shared connection pools, and into per-session (also thread-safe) connection pools. Unlike before, this enables connections from a session to be reused across threads, as well as limiting the number of connections that can be open on a given origin peer. This fixes long-standing issues, such as reusing connections under a fiber scheduler loop (such as the one from the gem `async`). A new `:pool_options` option is introduced, which can be passed an hash with the following sub-options: * `:max_connections_per_origin`: maximum number of connections a pool allows (unbounded by default, for backwards compatibility). * `:pool_timeout`: the number of seconds a session will wait for a connection to be checked out (default: 5) More info under https://honeyryderchuck.gitlab.io/httpx/wiki/Connection-Pools ## Improvements * `:aws_sigv4` plugin: improved digest calculation on compressed request bodies by buffering content to a tempfile. * `HTTPX::Response#json` will parse payload from extended json MIME types (like `application/ld+json`, `application/hal+json`, ...). ## Bugfixes * `:aws_sigv4` plugin: do not try to rewind a request body which yields chunks. * fixed request encoding when `:json` param is passed, and the `oj` gem is used (by using the `:compat` flag). * native resolver: on message truncation, bubble up tcp handshake errors as resolve errors. * allow `HTTPX::Response#json` to accept extended JSON mime types (such as responses with `content-type: application/ld+json`) ## Chore * default options are now fully frozen (in case anyone relies on overriding them). ### `:xml` plugin XML encoding/decoding (via `:xml` request param, and `HTTPX::Response#xml`) is now available via the `:xml` plugin. Using `HTTPX::Response#xml` without the plugin will issue a deprecation warning. # 1.3.4 ## Bugfixes * webmock adapter: fix tempfile usage in multipart requests. * fix: fallback to binary encoding when parsing incoming invalid charset in HTTP "content-type" header. # 1.3.3 ## Bugfixes * fixing a regression introduced in 1.3.2 associated with the webmock adapter, which expects matchable request bodies to be strings # 1.3.2 ## Bugfixes * Prevent `NoMethodError` in an edge case when the `:proxy` plugin is autoloaded via env vars and webmock adapter are used in tandem, and a real request fails. * raise invalid uri error if passed request uri does not contain the host part (ex: `"https:/get"`) # 1.3.1 ## Improvements * `:request_timeout` will be applied to all HTTP interactions until the final responses returned to the caller. That includes: * all redirect requests/responses (when using the `:follow_redirects` plugin) * all retried requests/responses (when using the `:retries` plugin) * intermediate requests (such as "100-continue") * faraday adapter: allow further plugins of internal session (ex: `builder.adapter(:httpx) { |sess| sess.plugin(:follow_redirects) }...`) ## Bugfixes * fix connection leak on proxy auth failed (407) handling * fix busy loop on deferred requests for the duration interval * do not further enqueue deferred requests if they have terminated meanwhile. * fix busy loop caused by coalescing connections when one of them is on the DNS resolution phase still. * faraday adapter: on parallel mode, skip calling `on_complete` when not defined.
