v9.0.0...v9.1.0

v9.0.0

Got version 9 is a massive release! Many new awesome features and we have pretty much fixed all the open issues regarding Got bugs on the issue tracker.

Got is a human-friendly and powerful HTTP request library for Node.js

Breaking changes

• Requires Node.js 8.
  You might ask, why not follow the Node.js LTS cycle and target Node.js 6. In short, async/await and WHATWG URL, which enabled us to simplify the codebase and reduce the dependency-tree considerably. Got v8 is a stable release, and you can continue using that if you need to support Node.js 6.
• The retry functionality was rewritten to improve its reliability and to support retrying on HTTP status codes. Previously, it only retried on some network failures. 98b5664
  The option was renamed from retries to retry and it now accepts either a number of retries or an object with the ability to specify the number of retries, HTTP status codes and methods to retry on, and a function to decide how to retry. See the docs for more.
  Migration:
  - { retries: 4 } → { retry: 4 }
  - { retries: () => { … } } → { retry: { retries: () => { … } } }
• Renamed the .canceled property to .isCanceled. 00fdeea
• Dropped support for the body option being an Array when form: true. dfe5b1c
  The built-in new URLSearchParams() API doesn't support this either and it's a weird use-case. If you need support for this, just don't set form: true and handle stringifying yourself.
• Got throws an error if .pipe() was called after the response has been emitted.
  This makes us sure you receive whole response in case flowing mode is on (#223).

Improvements

• Fewer dependencies and smaller install size!
  • Got v9:
  • Got v8:
  • Request (latest):
• The timeout option was rewritten to be more reliable and flexible. You can now set a timeout for every phase of the request if you want, or just for the whole request. That's up to you. da4f236
• Added got.extend() which lets you easily create instances of Got with some options overridden. bc41a49
• Added got.create() which is a more advanced and powerful version of got.extend(). With this API, you can create your own niche-specific instance of Got, for example, an HTTP-client for GitHub. bc41a49
• Added a beforeRequest hook. 107756f
• Added request and response events to the Promise API. e86aad7
• The content-length header is now also automatically set if the body option is set to a fs.createReadStream instance. 6e7a455
• You can now remove the default user-agent header by passing in 'user-agent': null as a header. e473a26
• The body option can now be any kind of object, not just a plain object. 7a49ce7

Bug fixes

• Fixed a problem with the cache not working when using the query option. 07a91cc
• Less unhandled errors (Hopefully none!). f621184
• Headers are now correctly proxied when you pipe got.stream(). 83bc44c
• Lots of more bug fixes.

Other

• 100% code coverage! Doing this caught a couple of bugs, so definitely worth doing even if 100% doesn't mean bug-free.
• The codebase was significantly refactored for better readability and maintainability. b54b680
