- :pr:`1715`: Fixed issue in cpstats where the
data/
endpoint would fail with encoding errors on Python 3. - :pr:`1821`: Simplify the passthrough of parameters to
CPWebCase.getPage
to cheroot. CherryPy now requires cheroot 8.2.1 or later.
- :pr:`1806`: Support handling multiple exceptions when processing hooks as reported in :issue:`1770`.
- File-based sessions no longer attempt to remove the lock files when releasing locks, instead deferring to the default behavior of zc.lockfile. Fixes :issue:`1391` and :issue:`1779`.

- :issue:`1722`: Pinned the
tempora
dependency against version 1.13 to avoid pulling in namespace packages.
- :issue:`1716` via :pr:`1717`: Fixed handling of url-encoded parameters in digest authentication handling, correcting regression in v14.2.0.

- :issue:`1688` via :commit:`38ad1da`: Removed
basic_auth
anddigest_auth
tools and thehttpauth
module, which have been officially deprecated earlier in v14.0.0. - Removed deprecated properties:
cherrypy._cpreqbody.Entity.type
deprecated in favor of :py:attr:`cherrypy._cpreqbody.Entity.content_type`cherrypy._cprequest.Request.body_params
deprecated in favor of :py:attr:`cherrypy._cprequest.RequestBody.params`

:cr-pr:`37`: Add support for peercreds lookup over UNIX domain socket. This enables app to automatically identify "who's on the other end of the wire".
This is how you enable it:
server.peercreds: True server.peercreds_resolve: True
The first option will put remote numeric data to WSGI env vars: app's PID, user's id and group.
Second option will resolve that into user and group names.
To prevent expensive syscalls, data is cached on per connection basis.
- :issue:`1700`: Improve windows pywin32 dependency declaration via conditional extras.
- :issue:`1688`: Officially deprecated
basic_auth
anddigest_auth
tools and thehttpauth
module, triggering DeprecationWarnings if they're used. Applications should instead adapt to use the more recentauth_basic
andauth_digest
tools. This deprecated functionality will be removed in a subsequent release soon. - Removed
DeprecatedTool
and the long-deprecated and disabledtidy
andnsgmls
tools. See the rationale for this change.
:issue:`1231` via :pr:`1654`: CaseInsensitiveDict now re-uses the generalized functionality from
jaraco.collections
to provide a more complete interface for a CaseInsensitiveDict and HeaderMap.Users are encouraged to use the implementation from jaraco.collections except when dealing with headers in CherryPy.
- :pr:`1671`: Restore support for installing CherryPy into environments hostile to namespace packages, broken since the 11.1.0 release.
- :issue:`1666`: Drop support for Python 3.3.
- :issue:`1665`: In request processing, when an invalid cookie is received, render the actual error message reported rather than guessing (sometimes incorrectly) what error occurred.
- Fixed issues importing :py:mod:`cherrypy.test.webtest` (by creating a module and importing classes from :py:mod:`cheroot`) and added a corresponding :py:class:`DeprecationWarning`.
Drop support for Python 3.1 and 3.2.
:issue:`1625`: Removed response timeout and timeout monitor and related exceptions, as it not possible to interrupt a request. Servers that wish to exit a request prematurely are recommended to monitor
response.time
and raise an exception or otherwise act accordingly.Servers that previously disabled timeouts by invoking
cherrypy.engine.timeout_monitor.unsubscribe()
will now crash. For forward-compatibility with this release on older versions of CherryPy, disable timeouts using the config option:'engine.timeout_monitor.on': False,
Or test for the presence of the timeout_monitor attribute:
with contextlib2.suppress(AttributeError): cherrypy.engine.timeout_monitor.unsubscribe()
Additionally, the
TimeoutError
exception has been removed, as it's no longer called anywhere. If your application benefits from this Exception, please comment in the linked ticket describing the use case, and we'll help devise a solution or bring the exception back.
- Bump to cheroot 5.9.0.
cherrypy.test.webtest
module is now merged with thecheroot.test.webtest
module. The CherryPy name is retained for now for compatibility and will be removed eventually.
cherrypy.engine.subscribe
now may be called without a callback, in which case it returns a decorator expecting the callback.- :pr:`1656`: Images are now compressed using lossless compression and consume less space.
- :pr:`1611`: Expose default status logic for a redirect as
HTTPRedirect.default_status
. - :pr:`1615`:
HTTPRedirect.status
is now an instance property and derived from the value inargs
. Although it was previously possible to set the property on an instance, and this change prevents that possibilty, CherryPy never relied on that behavior and we presume no applications depend on that interface. - :issue:`1627`: Fixed issue in proxy tool where more than one port would
appear in the
request.base
and thus incherrypy.url
. - :pr:`1645`: Added new log format markers:
i
holds a per-request UUID4z
outputs UTC time in format of RFC 3339cherrypy._cprequest.Request.unique_id.uuid4
now has lazily invocable UUID4
- :issue:`1646`: Improve http status conversion helper.
- :pr:`1638`: Always use backslash for path separator when processing paths in staticdir.
- :issue:`1190`: Fix gzip, caching, and staticdir tools integration. Makes cache of gzipped content valid.
- Requires cheroot 5.8.3 or later.
- Also, many improvements around continuous integration and code quality checks.
This release contained an unintentional regression in environments that are hostile to namespace packages, such as Pex, Celery, and py2exe. See :pr:`1671` for details.
- :issue:`1607`: Dropped support for Python 2.6.
- :issue:`1595`: Fixed over-eager normalization of paths in cherrypy.url.
- Remove unintended dependency on
graphviz
in Python 2.6.

CPWSGIServer.version
now reported asCherryPy/x.y.z Cheroot/x.y.z
. Bump to cheroot 5.2.0. - The codebase is now PEP 8 complaint, flake8 linter is enabled in TravisCI by default.
- Max line restriction is now set to 120 for flake8 linter.
- PEP 257 linter runs as separate allowed failure job in Travis CI.
- A few bugs related to undeclared variables have been fixed.
pre-commit
testing goes faster due to enabled caching.
- :issue:`1342`: Fix AssertionError on shutdown.
- Bump to cheroot 5.1.0.
- :issue:`794`: Prefer setting max-age for session cookie expiration, moving MSIE hack into a function documenting its purpose.
:issue:`1332`: CherryPy now uses portend for checking and waiting on ports for startup and teardown checks. The following names are no longer present:
- cherrypy._cpserver.client_host
- cherrypy._cpserver.check_port
- cherrypy._cpserver.wait_for_free_port
- cherrypy._cpserver.wait_for_occupied_port
- cherrypy.process.servers.check_port
- cherrypy.process.servers.wait_for_free_port
- cherrypy.process.servers.wait_for_occupied_port
Use this functionality from the portend package directly.
- :issue:`1481`: Move functionality from cherrypy.wsgiserver to the cheroot 5.0 project.
- :issue:`1537`: Restore dependency on pywin32 for Python 3.6.
:pr:`1547`: Replaced
cherryd
distutils script with a setuptools console entry point.When running CherryPy in daemon mode, the forked process no longer changes directory to
/
. If that behavior is something on which your application relied and should rely, please file a ticket with the project.
- :pr:`1528`: Allow a timeout of 0 to server.
- :issue:`645`: Setting a bind port of 0 will bind to an ephemeral port.
- :issue:`1538` and :issue:`1090`: Removed cruft from the setup script and instead rely on include_package_data to ensure the relevant files are included in the package. Note, this change does cause LICENSE.md no longer to be included in the installed package.
- The pyOpenSSL support is now included on Python 3 builds, removing the last disparity between Python 2 and Python 3 in the CherryPy package. This change is one small step in consideration of :issue:`1399`. This change also fixes RPM builds, as reported in :issue:`1149`.
- :issue:`1532`: Also release wheels for Python 2, enabling offline installation.
- :issue:`1537`: Disable dependency on pypiwin32 on Python 3.6 until a viable build of pypiwin32 can be made on that Python version.
- Consolidated some documentation and include the more concise readme in the package long description, as found on PyPI.
- :issue:`1463`: CherryPy tests are now run under pytest and invoked using tox.
- :issue:`1530`: Fix the issue with TypeError being swallowed by decorated handlers.
- :issue:`1497`: Handle errors thrown by
ssl_module: 'builtin'
when client opens connection to HTTPS port using HTTP. - :issue:`1350`: Fix regression introduced in v6.1.0 where environment construction for WSGIGateway_u0 was passing one parameter and not two.
- Other miscellaneous fixes.
- :issue:`1473`:
HTTPError
now also works as a context manager. - :issue:`1487`: The sessions tool now accepts a
storage_class
parameter, which supersedes the new deprecatedstorage_type
parameter. Thestorage_class
should be the actual Session subclass to be used. - Releases now use
setuptools_scm
to track the release versions. Therefore, releases can be cut by simply tagging a commit in the repo. Versions numbers are now stored in exactly one place.
- :issue:`1489` via :pr:`1493`: Additionally reject anything else that's not bytes.
- :issue:`1492`: systemd socket activation.
- :issue:`1483`: Remove Deprecated constructs:
cherrypy.lib.http
module.unrepr
,modules
, andattributes
incherrypy.lib
.
- :pr:`1476`: Drop support for python-memcached<1.58
- :issue:`1401`: Handle NoSSLErrors.
- :issue:`1489`: In
wsgiserver.WSGIGateway.respond
, the application must now yield bytes and not text, as the spec requires. If text is received, it will now raise a ValueError instead of silently encoding using ISO-8859-1. - Removed unicode filename from the package, working around :gh:`pypa/pip#3894 <pypa/pip/issues/3894>` and :gh:`pypa/setuptools#704 <pypa/setuptools/issues/704>`.
:pr:`1458`: Implement systemd's socket activation mechanism for CherryPy servers, based on work sponsored by Endless Computers.
Socket Activation allows one to setup a system so that systemd will sit on a port and start services 'on demand' (a little bit like inetd and xinetd used to do).
Removed the long-deprecated backward compatibility for legacy config keys in the engine. Use the config for the namespaced-plugins instead:
- autoreload_on -> autoreload.on
- autoreload_frequency -> autoreload.frequency
- autoreload_match -> autoreload.match
- reload_files -> autoreload.files
- deadlock_poll_frequency -> timeout_monitor.frequency
- :issue:`1460`: Fix KeyError in Bus.publish when signal handlers set in config.
:issue:`1441`: Added tool to automatically convert request params based on type annotations (primarily in Python 3). For example:
@cherrypy.tools.params() def resource(self, limit: int): assert isinstance(limit, int)
- Issue :issue:`1411`: Fix issue where autoreload fails when
the host interpreter for CherryPy was launched using
python -m
.
- Combined wsgiserver2 and wsgiserver3 modules into a
single module,
cherrypy.wsgiserver
.
- Issue :pr:`1445`: Correct additional typos.
- Issue :issue:`1444`: Correct typos in
@cherrypy.expose
decorators.
- Setuptools is now required to build CherryPy. Pure distutils installs are no longer supported. This change allows CherryPy to depend on other packages and re-use code from them. It's still possible to install pre-built CherryPy packages (wheels) using pip without Setuptools.
- six is now a requirement and subsequent requirements will be declared in the project metadata.
- :issue:`1440`: Back out changes from :pr:`1432` attempting to
fix redirects with Unicode URLs, as it also had the
unintended consequence of causing the 'Location'
to be
bytes
on Python 3. cherrypy.expose
now works on classes.cherrypy.config
decorator is now used throughout the code internally.
@cherrypy.expose
now will also set the exposed attribute on a class.- Rewrote all tutorials and internal usage to prefer
the decorator usage of
expose
rather than setting the attribute explicitly. - Removed test-specific code from tutorials.
- :issue:`1397`: Fix for filenames with semicolons and quote characters in filenames found in headers.
- :issue:`1311`: Added decorator for registering tools.
- :issue:`1194`: Use simpler encoding rules for SCRIPT_NAME
and PATH_INFO environment variables in CherryPy Tree
allowing non-latin characters to pass even when
wsgi.version
is notu.0
. - :issue:`1352`: Ensure that multipart fields are decoded even when cached in a file.
cherrypy.test.webtest.WebCase
now honors a 'WEBTEST_INTERACTIVE' environment variable to disable interactive tests (still enabled by default). Set to '0' or 'false' or 'False' to disable interactive tests.- :issue:`1408`: Fix AttributeError when listiterator was accessed
using the
next
attribute. - :issue:`748`: Removed
cherrypy.lib.sessions.PostgresqlSession

test in Python 3.5 - Bugfix issue :issue:`1382` regarding the keyword arguments support for Python 3 on the config file.
- Bugfix issue :issue:`1406` for
test_2_KeyboardInterrupt
test in Python 3.5. by monkey patching the HTTPRequest given a bug on CPython that is affecting the testsuite (https://bugs.python.org/issue23377). - Add additional parameter
raise_subcls
to the tests helpers openURL andCPWebCase.getPage
to have finer control on which exceptions can be raised. - Add support for direct keywords on the calls (e.g.
foo=bar
) on the config file under Python 3. - Add additional validation to determine if the process is running
as a daemon on
cherrypy.process.plugins.SignalHandler
to allow the execution of the testsuite under CI tools.
- Bugfix for NameError following :issue:`94`.
- Removed deprecated support for
ssl_certificate
andssl_private_key
attributes and implicit construction of SSL adapter on Python 2 WSGI servers. - Default SSL Adapter on Python 2 is the builtin SSL adapter, matching Python 3 behavior.
- Pull request :issue:`94`: In proxy tool, defer to Host header for resolving the base if no base is supplied.
- Drop support for Python 2.5 and earlier.
- No longer build Windows installers by default.
- Pull Request :issue:`116`: Correct InternalServerError when null bytes in static file path. Now responds with 404 instead.
- Pull Request :issue:`96`: Pass
exc_info
to logger as keyword rather than formatting the error and injecting into the message.
- CherryPy daemon may now be invoked with
python -m cherrypy
in addition to thecherryd
script. - Issue :issue:`1298`: Fix SSL handling on CPython 2.7 with builtin SSL module and pyOpenSSL 0.14. This change will break PyPy for now.
