NOTE: This release deprecates some syntax and features. In particular httpc:connect now requires a single table argument, and the proxy_request and proxy_response helpers are deprecated. Please review the documentation for details.
-
New improved connection syntax and logic. These changes make SSL + proxy connection reuse safer, and so the new syntax is strongly recommended over the older, now deprecated syntax. Thanks @Tieske for this major contribution.
-
Documentation largely rewritten and tidied up.
-
request_urinow supports ipv6 literals. -
Content-Lengthcalculation now handles a wider variety of Lua types. -
Transfer-Encodingwill always override (and remove)Content-Lengthas per the spec, to help prevent request smuggling. -
Various other bug fixes and improvements.
