22 root 1.90
23 root 1.95 - the sessionid parameter was documented as session in random

33 root 1.90 - further improve relative redirection code.
34     - comment out code that tried to detect possible bugs with persistent

36     working fine :)
37 root 1.89 - do not call on_body callback on a response that AE::HTTP will recurse
38     on internally (reported by Антон Онуфриев and Ruslan Zakirov).
39    
40 root 1.88 2.23 Sun Aug 28 11:30:33 CEST 2016
41     - relative redirects used the proxy schema instead of the request
42     url schema to generate the new url, which is wrong (analyzed by Felix
43     Ostmann).
44     - fix download example (reported by Felix Ostmann).
45    
46 root 1.86 2.22 Thu May 14 04:04:03 CEST 2015

57     - correctly keep body when redirecting POSTs, instead of
58     deleting them.
59    
60 root 1.80 2.2 Mon Jun 9 01:31:46 CEST 2014
61 root 1.79 - connection header was malformed (patch by Raphael Geissert).
62 root 1.77 - add lots of known idempotent methods from httpbis.
63 root 1.80 - implement relative location headers (rfc 7231), with fallback on URI.

65     - recommend URI.
66 root 1.77
67 root 1.76 2.15 Wed Nov 14 23:22:07 CET 2012
68     - use the recurse parameter to also limit the number of retries to be
69     done, avodiing endless loops with broken servers, as reported
70     by Carl Chambers.
71 root 1.74
72 root 1.75 2.14 Sun Apr 22 14:57:51 CEST 2012

83     have been reported by Carl Chambers).
84    
85 root 1.71 2.11 Tue May 10 14:33:28 CEST 2011
86     - the keepalive session cache wouldn't take port and scheme into account
87     when reusing connection - potentially causing information leaks
88     (reported by Nick Kostirya).
89     - bump AnyEvent dependency version (reported by Richard Harris).
90    
91 root 1.69 2.1 Thu Feb 24 13:11:51 CET 2011
92     - the keepalive and persistent parameters were actually named
93     differently in the code - they now work as documented.

95 root 1.70 the request timeout is near or below the persistent connection
96 root 1.69 timeout (testcase by Cindy Wang).
97     - destroying the guard would have no effect when a request was
98     recursing or being retired.
99    
100 root 1.68 2.04 Sat Feb 19 07:45:24 CET 2011
101     - "proxy => undef" now overrides any global proxy when specified.
102 root 1.66 - require scheme in urls, also use a stricter match to match urls,

105 root 1.66
106 root 1.65 2.03 Tue Jan 18 18:49:35 CET 2011

115 root 1.62
116 root 1.59 2.0 Tue Jan 4 09:16:56 CET 2011
117 root 1.48 - hopefully fully upgraded to HTTP/1.1.
118 root 1.59 - support HTTP/1.1 persistent and HTTP/1.0 keep-alive connections.
119     - drop https-proxy-connection support. seems unused and ill-specified.
120 root 1.60 - use more differentiated 59x status codes.
121     - properly use url (not proxy) hostname to verify server certificate.
122 root 1.48 - much improved cookie implementation:
123 root 1.53 - properly implement cookie expiry (for new cookies).
124     - new function to expire cookies and sessions: cookie_jar_expire.
125 root 1.48 - add special exception to parse broken expires= keys in
126     set-cookie headers.
127 root 1.49 - do not quote cookie values when not strictly necessary, to
128     improve compatibility with broken servers.
129 root 1.50 - accept and send lots of invalid cookie values exactly as
130     they were received - this should not impact valid values.
131 root 1.48 - lowercase cookie parameter names for improved compatibility.
132 root 1.60 - support the max-age cookie parameter, overrides expires.
133 root 1.53 - support cookie dates (and a few others) in parse_date.

142 root 1.45 - bugfix: after headers were received, if any error occured the wrong
143     (server-sent) Status and Reason fields would be passed to the callback.
144     - when an error occurs during transfer, preserve status/reason.
145 root 1.41 - add socks4a connect example.

147 root 1.42 - new format_date and parse_date functions.

150 root 1.37
151 root 1.39 1.46 Mon Sep 6 08:29:34 CEST 2010
152 root 1.38 - some (broken) servers differentiate between empty search parts
153     and nonexistant search parts, work around this (problem
154     analyzed by Sergey Zasenko).
155     - possibly increase robustness by always setting an on_error
156 root 1.39 callback on the AnyEvent::Handle object (especially in case
157     of user errors, such as nehative timeouts).
158     - we now always follow 301/302/303 redirects and mutate POST to GET.
159     - we now always follow 307 redirects, even for POST.
160     - header-less responses are not parsed correctly (at a negative
161     speed penatly :).

169 root 1.30
170 root 1.35 1.44 Sat Dec 5 16:36:20 CET 2009
171     - do not generate content-length on get requests (if the body is empty),
172     as there are even more broken servers out there.
173 root 1.34 - allow set_proxy to clear the proxy again.
174     - set_proxy will now croak on invalid urls.
175 root 1.35 - support overriding the Host-header (requested by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa).

182 root 1.30 (requested by Mr Guest).
183     - allow proxy scheme to be missing, as documented
184     (reported by Mr Guest).

189     - correctly parse completely headerless responses (e.g. by gatling).

191    
192 root 1.28 1.4 Tue Jul 7 02:14:53 CEST 2009
193 root 1.25 - http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on
194     tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks.
195 root 1.28 - fix a bug where a connection error is wrongly reported
196     as EINPROGRESS.
197 root 1.26 - new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle.
198     - redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not
199     the body dowload was successful or not.
200 root 1.27 - include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break
201     when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...).
202 root 1.26 - pass the empty string, not undef, when there is no body but
203     no error occured.
204     - allow passing of tls_ctx, predefine two https security profiles.

214    
215 root 1.22 1.11 Fri Nov 21 09:18:11 CET 2008
216     - work around a perl core bug not properly refcounting function arguments,
217     causing "200 OK" with random body results (reported by Дмитрий Шалашов).
218    
219 root 1.21 1.1 Thu Oct 30 04:46:27 CET 2008
220 root 1.18 - work around different behaviour of AnyEvent::Handle in TLS mode.
221 root 1.17 - cleanup cookie implementation, many examples and comments were
222     provided by Дмитрий Шалашов.
223     - document the return values of http_* functions better.
224 root 1.19 - separate multiple header values by "," not "\x00" (this does not
225     break correctly written users of the old API).
226     - improve Set-Cookie: parsing.
227     - add experimental https-over-http-proxy support.
228     - downgrade https-over-https proxy to https-over-http.

241    
242 root 1.13 1.03 Thu Jul 3 03:47:58 CEST 2008
243 root 1.10 - fix http_post, which was totally broken (patch by Pedro Melo).
244 root 1.13 - do not recurse on POST requests, as per HTTP/1.[01] (this might
245     change as the recommendation isn't followed by anybody else).
246     - implement preliminary support for 303/307 redirects.
247 root 1.10
248 root 1.9 1.02 Thu Jun 12 13:50:08 CEST 2008
