31.1 3TODO: provide lwp_request function that takes an lwp http requets and returns a http response.
4TODO: http://efl20.com/wp-register.php refresh-header, instead of location
5TODO: download example
6
7 - hopefully fully upgraded to HTTP/1.1.
8 - use more differentiated status 59x codes.
9 - ignore leading zeroes in http version.
10 - much improved cookie implementation:
11 - properly implement cookie expiry (for new cookies).
12 - new function to expire cookies and sessions: cookie_jar_expire.
13 - add special exception to parse broken expires= keys in
14 set-cookie headers.
15 - do not quote cookie values when not strictly necessary, to
16 improve compatibility with broken servers.
17 - accept and send lots of invalid cookie values exactly as
18 they were received - this should not impact valid values.
19 - lowercase cookie parameter names for improved compatibility.
20 - support the max-age cookie parameter, used if expires is missing.
21 - support cookie dates (and a few others) in parse_date.
22 - suppoer value-less parameters (e.g. secure, httponly).
23
241.5 Fri Dec 31 04:47:08 CET 2010
25 - bugfix: after headers were received, if any error occured the wrong
26 (server-sent) Status and Reason fields would be passed to the callback.
27 - when an error occurs during transfer, preserve status/reason.
28 - add socks4a connect example.
29 - new "tcp_connect" parameter.
30 - new format_date and parse_date functions.
31 - diagnose unexpected eof as such when the length is known.
32 - add 205 to the responses without body.
33
341.46 Mon Sep 6 08:29:34 CEST 2010
35 - some (broken) servers differentiate between empty search parts
36 and nonexistant search parts, work around this (problem
37 analyzed by Sergey Zasenko).
38 - possibly increase robustness by always setting an on_error
39 callback on the AnyEvent::Handle object (especially in case
40 of user errors, such as nehative timeouts).
41 - we now always follow 301/302/303 redirects and mutate POST to GET.
42 - we now always follow 307 redirects, even for POST.
43 - header-less responses are not parsed correctly (at a negative
44 speed penatly :).
45
461.45 Wed Jun 16 21:15:26 CEST 2010
47 - fix a bug where the handle would go away directly after a successful
48 connect (analyzed and patch by Maxim Dounin).
49 - due to popular demand, introduce the Redirect pseudo response header.
50 - document URL pseudo-header better.
51 - explain how to implement DNS caching.
52
531.44 Sat Dec 5 16:36:20 CET 2009
54 - do not generate content-length on get requests (if the body is empty),
55 as there are even more broken servers out there.
56 - allow set_proxy to clear the proxy again.
57 - set_proxy will now croak on invalid urls.
58 - support overriding the Host-header (requested by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa).
59
601.43 Fri Aug 14 17:02:02 CEST 2009
61 - provide on_prepare callback on common request.
62
631.42 Wed Aug 5 18:43:01 CEST 2009
64 - allow suppression of auto-supplied header fieds by specifying undef
65 (requested by Mr Guest).
66 - allow proxy scheme to be missing, as documented
67 (reported by Mr Guest).
68 - do not follow redirects if we do not have a location header
69 (requested by Mr Guest).
70
711.41 Sat Jul 25 03:27:05 CEST 2009
72 - correctly parse completely headerless responses (e.g. by gatling).
73 (analysed by Robin Redeker).
74
751.4 Tue Jul 7 02:14:53 CEST 2009
76 - http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on
77 tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks.
78 - fix a bug where a connection error is wrongly reported
79 as EINPROGRESS.
80 - new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle.
81 - redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not
82 the body dowload was successful or not.
83 - include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break
84 when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...).
85 - pass the empty string, not undef, when there is no body but
86 no error occured.
87 - allow passing of tls_ctx, predefine two https security profiles.
88 - ucfirst all error messages generated internally.
89 - include "U" token in User-Agent.
90 - document $AnyEvent::HTTP::MAX_PER_HOST.
91 - allow empty field names in response headers (microsoft hits. microsoft
92 hits. microsoft hits. you die).
93
941.12 Thu Jun 11 14:45:18 CEST 2009
95 - $scheme wasn't optional in the proxy specification (reported by
96 Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
97
981.11 Fri Nov 21 09:18:11 CET 2008
99 - work around a perl core bug not properly refcounting function arguments,
100 causing "200 OK" with random body results (reported by Дмитрий Шалашов).
101
1021.1 Thu Oct 30 04:46:27 CET 2008
103 - work around different behaviour of AnyEvent::Handle in TLS mode.
104 - cleanup cookie implementation, many examples and comments were
105 provided by Дмитрий Шалашов.
106 - document the return values of http_* functions better.
107 - separate multiple header values by "," not "\x00" (this does not
108 break correctly written users of the old API).
109 - improve Set-Cookie: parsing.
110 - add experimental https-over-http-proxy support.
111 - downgrade https-over-https proxy to https-over-http.
112 - ignore spurious CR characters in headers, they show up
113 in the weirdest of places.
114 - ucfirst the request headers, for a slightly less weird look.
115 - work around (some) memleaks in perl regarding qr.
116
1171.05 Mon Sep 29 15:49:58 CEST 2008
118 - fix a regex when parsing cookie domains
119 (patch by Дмитрий Шалашов).
120
1211.04 Thu Jul 24 08:00:46 CEST 2008
122 - parse reason-less http status responses.
123 - parse more forms of broken location headers.
124
1251.03 Thu Jul 3 03:47:58 CEST 2008
126 - fix http_post, which was totally broken (patch by Pedro Melo).
127 - do not recurse on POST requests, as per HTTP/1.[01] (this might
128 change as the recommendation isn't followed by anybody else).
129 - implement preliminary support for 303/307 redirects.
130
1311.02 Thu Jun 12 13:50:08 CEST 2008
132 - make the request URL available in the callback of http_request.
133 - export http_post, http_head.
