v2.3.1-0

Pre-release version - See current changelog at https://github.com/JCMais/node-libcurl/blob/24f91ac78e3c069b22f6ab48627fca59c1ceb3f3/CHANGELOG.md#unreleased

v2.3.0

Probably the last release that curly is considered experimental.

Breaking Change

• curly (and curly.<method>) is now able to automatically parse the response body based on the content-type header of the response. #240
  Default parsers for application/json (calls JSON.parse) and text/* (converts the raw Buffer to a string with utf8 encoding) were added. This means that for responses without a matching content-type the raw Buffer will be returned. This is different from the previous behavior where a string would always be returned.
  The default parsers can be overwritten by setting curly.defaultResponseBodyParsers to an object with the format:

  {
    'content-type': (data: Buffer, headers: HeaderInfo[]) => any
  }
  

  Where content-type can be one of these:

  • the exact content-type.
  • a pattern using * to match specific parts of the content-type, like text/*.
  • a catch-all pattern: just *.

  You can also override the parsers using the following options:

  • curlyResponseBodyParsers object that will be merged with defaultResponseBodyParsers.
  • curlyResponseBodyParser a parser that will be used for all responses.

  It's also possible to set curlyResponseBodyParser to false and the data returned will always be the raw Buffer.

  Of course, it is still possible to use your own writeFunction (libcurl CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION option) to set your own write callback and not rely on this default handling of the response.

As curly is marked as experimental, this allows us to do a breaking change in a minor version bump. This release should make the curly API more stable and provide a better developer experience, however, the API remains experimental.

Fixed

• Some curly.<method> calls not working correctly, to be more specific, all calls that were not get, post and head.
• Errors thrown by the internal Curl instance used by curly not being re-thrown correctly.
• Progress callbacks were not allowing to use default libcurl progress meter (by returning CurlProgressFunc.Continue).

Added

• Calling curly.create(options) will now return a new curly object that will use the passed options as defaults. #247
• TypeScript: curly (and curly.<method>) now accepts a generic type parameter which will be the type of the data returned. By default, this is set to any.
• Added new options to the curly API:
  • curlyBaseUrl: string, if set, their value will always be added as the prefix for the URL.
  • curlyLowerCaseHeaders: boolean, if set to true, headers will be returned in lower case. Defaults to false. #240
• Added new methods and CurlFeature allowing the use of streams to upload and download data without having to set WRITEFUNCTION and/or READFUNCTION manually. #237
  • Curl.setUploadStream
  • Curl.setStreamProgress
  • Curl.setStreamResponseHighWaterMark
  • CurlFeature.StreamResponse
    New options were also added to the curly API:
  • curlyProgressCallback
  • curlyStreamResponse
  • curlyStreamResponseHighWaterMark
  • curlyStreamUpload
    These new features related to streams are only reliable when using a libcurl version >= 7.69.1.
• Support libcurl info CURLINFO_CERTINFO. Can be retrieved using getInfo("CERTINFO"). Thanks to @Sergey-Mityukov for most of the work on this.
• Support libcurl info CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_METHOD. Requires libcurl >= 7.72.0.
• Support libcurl info CURLINFO_PROXY_ERROR. Use CurlPx for constants. Requires libcurl >= 7.73.0.
• Support libcurl option CURLOPT_SSL_EC_CURVES. Requires libcurl >= 7.73.0.
• Added prebuilt binaries for Electron v10.1
• The libcurl version being used by prebuilt binaries is now 7.73.0 and it's not built with c-ares.

Changed

• curly now has 100% code coverage.

Removed

• Removed prebuilt binaries for: Electron v3, Electron v4, Nwjs v0.42, and Nwjs v0.43
