Breaking changes

  • Node.js v4 has reached it's end of life, so we no longer support it. It's v6+ or later. We recommend Node.js 10.
  • We now use ES6 in the browser code, too.
    • If you're using Browserify or Webpack to package code for Internet Explorer, you will also have to use Babel.
    • The pre-built node_modules/superagent.js is still ES5-compatible.
  • .end(…) returns undefined instead of the request. If you need the request object after calling .end() (and you probably don't), save it in a variable and call request.end(…). Consider not using .end() at all, and migrating to promises by calling .then() instead.
  • In Node, responses with unknown MIME type are buffered by default. To get old behavior, if you use custom unbuffered parsers, add .buffer(false) to requests or set superagent.buffer[yourMimeType] = false.
  • Invalid uses of .pipe() throw.

Minor changes

  • Throw if req.abort().end() is called
  • Throw if using unsupported mix of send and field
  • Reject .end() promise on all error events (Kornel Lesiński)
  • Set https.servername from the Host header (Kornel Lesiński)
  • Leave backticks unencoded in query strings where possible (Ethan Resnick)
  • Update node-mime to 2.x (Alexey Kucherenko)
  • Allow default buffer settings based on response-type (shrey)
  • response.buffered is more accurate.
