v0.9.2

Fixes

• Fix panic when Location header has UTF-8 characters.

v0.9.1

Fixes

• Fix large request bodies failing because of improper handling of backpressure.
• Remove body-related headers when redirect changes a POST into a GET.
• Reduce memory size of Response and Error signicantly.

v0.9.0

Features

• Upgrade to tokio 0.1.
• Upgrade to hyper 0.12.
• Upgrade to native-tls 0.2.
• Add ClientBuilder::danger_accept_invalid_certs(bool) to disable
  certificate verification.
• Add RequestBuilder::bearer_auth(token) to ease sending bearer tokens.
• Add headers() and headers_mut() to multipart::Part to allow sending
  extra headers for a specific part.
• Moved request::unstable::async to reqwest::async.

Fixes

• Fix panicking when passing a Url with a file:// scheme. Instead, an
  Error is returned.

Breaking Changes

• Changed ClientBuilder::danger_disable_hostname_verification()
  to ClientBuilder::danger_accept_invalid_hostnames(bool).

• Changed ClientBuilder to be a by-value builder instead of by-ref.

  For single chains of method calls, this shouldn't affect you. For code that
  conditionally uses the builder, this kind of change is needed:

  // Old
  let mut builder = ClientBuilder::new();
  if some_val {
      builder.gzip(false);
  }
  let client = builder.build()?;
  
  // New
  let mut builder = ClientBuilder::new();
  if some_val {
      builder = builder.gzip(false);
  }
  let client = builder.build()?;

• Changed RequestBuilder to be a by-value builder of by-ref.

  See the previous note about ClientBuilder for affected code and
  how to change it.

• Removed the unstable cargo-feature, and moved reqwest::unstable::async
  to reqwest::async.

• Changed multipart::Part::mime() to mime_str().

  // Old
  let part = multipart::Part::file(path)?
      .mime(mime::TEXT_PLAIN);
  
  // New
  let part = multipart::Part::file(path)?
      .mime_str("text/plain")?;

• The upgrade to hyper 0.12 means a temporary removal of the typed headers.

  The RequestBuilder has simple methods to set headers using strings, which
  can work in most places.

  // Old
  client
      .get("https://hyper.rs")
      .header(UserAgent::new("hallo"))
      .send()?;
  
  // New
  client
      .get("https://hyper.rs")
      .header("user-agent", "hallo")
      .send()?;

  To ease the transition, there is a hyper-011 cargo-feature that can be
  enabled.

  [dependencies]
  reqwest = { version = "0.9", features = ["hyper-011"] }

  And then usage:

  client
      .get("https://hyper.rs")
      .header_011(reqwest::hyper_011::header::UserAgent::new("hallo"))
      .send()?;

v0.8.7

Fixes

• Send an extra CRLF at the end of multipart requests, since some servers expect it.
• Removed internal dependency on tokio-proto, which removed unsafe small-vec
  dependency.

v0.8.6

Features

• Add RedirectAttempt::status to check status code that triggered redirect.
• Add RedirectPolicy::redirect method publicly, to allow composing policies.

v0.8.5

Features

• Try to auto-detect encoding in Response::text().
• Add Certificate::from_pem to load PEM encoded client certificates.
• Allow unsized types in query, form, and json.
• Add unstable::async::RequestBuilder::query, mirroring the stable builder method.

v0.8.4

Features

• Add RequestBuilder::query to easily adjust query parameters of requests.

v0.8.3

Features

• Upgrades internal log crate usage to v0.4

v0.8.2

Fixes

• Enable hyper's no_proto config, fixing several bugs in hyper.

v0.8.1

Features

• Add ClientBuilder::default_headers to set headers used for every request.
• Add async::ClientBuilder::dns_threads to set number of threads use for DNS.
• Add Response::text as shortcut to read the full body into a String.
• Add Response::copy_to as shortcut for std::io::copy.
