Fixed the following bugs:
7
#12 - Cache-Control: only-if-cached incorrectly does request if item not in cache
8
#39 - Deprecation warnings in Python 2.6
9
#54 - Http.request fails accesing Google account via http proxy
10
#56 - Block on response.read() for HEAD requests.
11
#57 - Timeout ignore for Python 2.6
12
#58 - Fixed parsing of Cache-Control: header to make it more robust
14
Also fixed a deprecation warning that appeared between Python 3.0 and 3.1.
18
Added support for proxies if the Socksipy module is installed.
20
Fixed bug with some HEAD responses having content-length set to
23
Fixed most except's to catch a specific exception.
25
Added 'connection_type' parameter to Http.request().
27
The default for 'force_exception_to_status_code' was changed to False. Defaulting
28
to True was causing quite a bit of confusion.
32
Calling Http.request() with a relative URI, as opposed to an absolute URI,
33
will now throw a specific exception.
35
Http() now has an additional optional parameter for the socket timeout.
37
Exceptions can now be forced into responses. That is, instead of
38
throwing an exception, a good httlib2.Response object is returned
39
that describe the error with an appropriate status code.
41
Many improvements to the file cache:
43
1. The names in the cache are now much less
44
opaque, which should help with debugging.
46
2. The disk cache is now Apache mod_asis compatible.
48
3. A Content-Location: header is supplied and stored in the
49
cache which points to the original requested URI.
51
User supplied If-* headers now override httplib2 supplied
54
IRIs are now fully supported. Note that they MUST be passed in
57
Http.add_credentials() now takes an optional domain to restrict
58
the credentials to being only used on that domain.
60
Added Http.add_certificate() which allows setting
61
a key and cert for SSL connnections.
63
Many other bugs fixed.
67
Added support for Google Auth.
69
Added experimental support for HMACDigest.
71
Added support for a pluggable caching system. Now supports
72
the old system of using the file system and now memcached.
74
Added httplib2.debuglevel which turns on debugging.
76
Change Response._previous to Response.previous.
78
Addded Http.follow_all_redirects which forces
79
httplib2 to follow all redirects, as opposed to
80
following only the safe redirects. This makes the
81
GData protocol easier to use.
83
All known bugs fixed to date.
87
Fixed several bugs raised by James Antill:
88
1. HEAD didn't get an Accept: header added like GET.
89
2. HEAD requests did not use the cache.
90
3. GET requests with Range: headers would erroneously return a full cached response.
91
4. Subsequent requests to resources that had timed out would raise an exception.
92
And one feature request for 'method' to default to GET.
94
Xavier Verges Farrero supplied what I needed to make the
95
library work with Python 2.3.
97
I added distutils based setup.py.
