BEHAVIOUR CHANGES

• Headers forces keys to be lowercase (part of the HTTP/2 spec).
• Request validates arguments differently, may not throw exception where previously thrown (e.g. allows Stream<List<int>> as body).

New features:

• Request constructor now accepts:
  • form (url-encoded body and also sets content-type header)
  • json (json-encoded body and also sets content-type header)
  • cookies (sets cookie header)

1.1.0

• Updated sources: removed new keyword.
• Request.timeout for limiting the timeout at the lowest level of the network, other framework-related operations do not count against it.

1.0.4

• Request.change to override url, headers or body. addHeader to extend current headers.

1.0.3

• CloseClientFn in UpdatingClient.

1.0.2

• Class-level invalidateOnError and forceCloseOnError for UpdatingClient.
• TrackingClient.toString() forwards to delegate client.

1.0.1

• Automatic Content-Length header when body is specified (in ConsoleClient).

1.0.0+1

• Fix: cleanup of past clients in UpdatingClient.

1.0.0

BREAKING CHANGES

• Request.body is used instead of bodyStream and bodyBytes.
• Stream<List<int>> inputs are no longer supported, use restartable FutureOr<Stream<List<int>>> StreamFn() instead.
• Single Response constructor, body become an untyped holder (use bodyAsStream if migrating uses).

Other updates

• Explicit expiration, and optional on-exception expiration in UpdatingClient.
• Support form-encoded values as request body.
• Support File with Request.body on ConsoleClient.
• Support native request types with Request.body and Response.body on BrowserClient.

0.6.0

• Support close({bool force}) on the API (and on console).
• Support Response.done to indicate when the underlying input stream has been read and completed.
• TrackingClient to keep track of ongoing and completed request count (with content read support).
• UpdatingClient to automatically recreate client resources (or rotate proxies) after some use.

  • preparation to support the Fetch API (e.g. in service workers)
