w3lib release notes
===================

2.0.0 (to be released)
----------------------

Backwards incompatible changes:

- Python 2 is no longer supported; Python 3.6+ is required now (#168, #175).
- :func:`w3lib.url.safe_url_string` and :func:`w3lib.url.canonicalize_url`
no longer convert "%23" to "#" when it appears in URl path. This is a bug
fix. It's listed as a backwards incomatible change because in some
cases :func:`w3lib.url.canonicalize_url` output is going to change,
and so, if this output is used to generate URL fingerprints, fingerprints
might be incompatible with those created with the previous w3lib versions
(#141).

Deprecation removals (#169):

- ``w3lib.form`` module is removed.
- ``w3lib.html.remove_entities`` function is removed.
- ``w3lib.url.urljoin_rfc`` function is removed.

The following functions are deprecated, and will be removed in future releases
(#170):

- ``w3lib.util.str_to_unicode``
- ``w3lib.util.unicode_to_str``
- ``w3lib.util.to_native_str``

These functions are not documented as :func:..., because they're not in w3lib.rst auto-generated API docs, and I didn't want to add them there.


Other improvements and bug fixes:

- Type annotations are added (#172, #184).
- Added support for Python 3.9 and 3.10 (#168, #176).
- Fixed :func:`w3lib.html.get_meta_refresh` for ``<meta>`` tags where
``http-equiv`` is written after ``content`` (#179).
- Fixed :func:`w3lib.url.safe_url_string` for IDNA domains with ports (#174).
- :func:`w3lib.url.url_query_cleaner` no longer adds an unneeded ``#`` when
``keep_fragments=True`` is passed, and URL doesn't have a fragment (#159).
- Removed a workaround for ancient pathname2url bug (#142)
- CI is migrated to Github Actions (#166, #177); other CI improvements (#160, #182).
- Code is formatted using black (#173)

1.22.0 (2020-05-13)
