Bug fixes

  • Fixed multipart reading when stream buffer splits the boundary over several read() calls – by @Dreamsorcerer.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8653.

  • Fixed aiohttp.TCPConnector doing blocking I/O in the event loop to create the SSLContext – by @bdraco.

    The blocking I/O would only happen once per verify mode. However, it could cause the event loop to block for a long time if the SSLContext creation is slow, which is more likely during startup when the disk cache is not yet present.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8672.

Miscellaneous internal changes

  • Improved performance of receive() and receive() when there is no timeout. – by @bdraco.

    The timeout context manager is now avoided when there is no timeout as it accounted for up to 50% of the time spent in the receive() and receive() methods.

  • Improved performance of starting request handlers with Python 3.12+ – by @bdraco.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8661.

  • Fixed connecting to npipe://, tcp://, and unix:// urls – by @bdraco.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8632.

  • Fixed WebSocket ping tasks being prematurely garbage collected – by @bdraco.

    There was a small risk that WebSocket ping tasks would be prematurely garbage collected because the event loop only holds a weak reference to the task. The garbage collection risk has been fixed by holding a strong reference to the task. Additionally, the task is now scheduled eagerly with Python 3.12+ to increase the chance it can be completed immediately and avoid having to hold any references to the task.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8641.

  • Fixed incorrectly following symlinks for compressed file variants – by @steverep.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8652.

  • Minor improvements to various type annotations – by @Dreamsorcerer.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8634.


3.10.1 (2024-08-03)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed WebSocket server heartbeat timeout logic to terminate receive() and return ServerTimeoutError – by @arcivanov.

    When a WebSocket pong message was not received, the receive() operation did not terminate. This change causes _pong_not_received to feed the reader an error message, causing pending receive() to terminate and return the error message. The error message contains the exception ServerTimeoutError.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8540.

  • Fixed url dispatcher index not matching when a variable is preceded by a fixed string after a slash – by @bdraco.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8566.

Removals and backward incompatible breaking changes


3.10.0 (2024-07-30)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed server response headers for Content-Type and Content-Encoding for static compressed files – by @steverep.

    Server will now respond with a Content-Type appropriate for the compressed file (e.g. "application/gzip"), and omit the Content-Encoding header. Users should expect that most clients will no longer decompress such responses by default.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #4462.

  • Fixed duplicate cookie expiration calls in the CookieJar implementation

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #7784.

  • Adjusted FileResponse to check file existence and access when preparing the response – by @steverep.

    The FileResponse class was modified to respond with

    403 Forbidden or 404 Not Found as appropriate. Previously, it would cause a server error if the path did not exist or could not be accessed. Checks for existence, non-regular files, and permissions were expected to be done in the route handler. For static routes, this now permits a compressed file to exist without its uncompressed variant and still be served. In addition, this changes the response status for files without read permission to 403, and for non-regular files from 404 to 403 for consistency.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8182.

  • Fixed AsyncResolver to match ThreadedResolver behavior – by @bdraco.

    On system with IPv6 support, the AsyncResolver would not fallback to providing A records when AAAA records were not available. Additionally, unlike the ThreadedResolver, the AsyncResolver did not handle link-local addresses correctly.

    This change makes the behavior consistent with the ThreadedResolver.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8270.

  • Fixed ws_connect not respecting receive_timeout` on WS(S) connection. – by @arcivanov.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8444.

  • Removed blocking I/O in the event loop for static resources and refactored exception handling – by @steverep.

    File system calls when handling requests for static routes were moved to a separate thread to potentially improve performance. Exception handling was tightened in order to only return 403 Forbidden or 404 Not Found responses for expected scenarios; 500 Internal Server Error would be returned for any unknown errors.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #8507.

Features

  • Added a Request.wait_for_disconnection() method, as means of allowing request handlers to be notified of premature client disconnections.

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #2492.

  • Added 5 new exceptions: InvalidUrlClientError, RedirectClientError, NonHttpUrlClientError, InvalidUrlRedirectClientError, NonHttpUrlRedirectClientError

    InvalidUrlRedirectClientError, NonHttpUrlRedirectClientError are raised instead of ValueError or InvalidURL when the redirect URL is invalid. Classes InvalidUrlClientError, RedirectClientError, NonHttpUrlClientError are base for them.

    The InvalidURL now exposes a description property with the text explanation of the error details.

  • Added a feature to retry closed connections automatically for idempotent methods. – by @Dreamsorcerer

    Related issues and pull requests on GitHub: #7297.

  • Implemented filter_cookies() with domain-matching and path-matching on the keys, instead of testing every single cookie. This may break existing cookies that have been saved with CookieJar.save(). Cookies can be migrated with this script:

    import pickle
    with file_path.open("rb") as f:
        cookies = pickle.load(f)
    
    morsels = [(name, m) for c in cookies.values() for name, m in c.items()]
    cookies.clear()
    for name, m in morsels:
        cookies[(m["domain"], m["path"].rstrip("/"))][name] = m
    
    with file_path.open("wb") as f:
        pickle.dump(cookies, f, pickle.HIGHEST_PROTOCOL)

Bugfixes

  • Increased the upper boundary of the multidict dependency to allow for the version 6 – by @hugovk.

    It used to be limited below version 7 in aiohttp v3.8.1 but was lowered in v3.8.2 via PR #6550 and never brought back, causing problems with dependency pins when upgrading. aiohttp v3.8.3 fixes that by recovering the original boundary of < 7. #6950


3.8.2 (2022-09-20, subsequently yanked on 2022-09-21)

Bugfixes

Improved Documentation

Deprecations and Removals

Misc


3.8.1 (2021-11-14)

Bugfixes

  • Fix the error in handling the return value of getaddrinfo. getaddrinfo will return an (int, bytes) tuple, if CPython could not handle the address family. It will cause an index out of range error in aiohttp. For example, if user compile CPython with –disable-ipv6 option, but his system enable the ipv6. #5901

  • Add ABNORMAL_CLOSURE and BAD_GATEWAY to WSCloseCode #5192

  • Fix cookies disappearing from HTTPExceptions. #5233

  • StaticResource prefixes no longer match URLs with a non-folder prefix. For example routes.static('/foo', '/foo') no longer matches the URL /foobar. Previously, this would attempt to load the file /foo/ar. #5250

  • Acquire the connection before running traces to prevent race condition. #5259

  • Add missing slots to `_RequestContextManager and _WSRequestContextManager #5329

  • Ensure sending a zero byte file does not throw an exception (round 2) #5380

  • Fixes failing tests when an environment variable <scheme>_proxy is set. #5554

  • Replace deprecated app handler design in tests/autobahn/server.py with call to web.run_app; replace deprecated aiohttp.ws_connect calls in tests/autobahn/client.py with aiohttp.ClienSession.ws_connect. #5606

  • Fixed test for HTTPUnauthorized that access the text argument. This is not used in any part of the code, so it’s removed now. #5657

  • Remove incorrect default from docs #5727

  • Remove external test dependency to http://httpbin.org #5840

  • Don’t cancel current task when entering a cancelled timer. #5853

  • Uses ThreadedChildWatcher under POSIX to allow setting up test loop in non-main thread. #5877

  • Fix the error in handling the return value of getaddrinfo. getaddrinfo will return an (int, bytes) tuple, if CPython could not handle the address family. It will cause a index out of range error in aiohttp. For example, if user compile CPython with –disable-ipv6 option but his system enable the ipv6. #5901

  • Removed the deprecated loop argument from the asyncio.sleep/gather calls #5905

  • Return None from request.if_modified_since, request.if_unmodified_since, request.if_range and response.last_modified when corresponding http date headers are invalid. #5925

  • Fix resetting SIGCHLD signals in Gunicorn aiohttp Worker to fix subprocesses that capture output having an incorrect returncode. #6130

3.7.4 (2021-02-25)

Bugfixes

  • (SECURITY BUG) Started preventing open redirects in the aiohttp.web.normalize_path_middleware middleware. For more details, see https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/security/advisories/GHSA-v6wp-4m6f-gcjg.

    Thanks to Beast Glatisant for finding the first instance of this issue and Jelmer Vernooij for reporting and tracking it down in aiohttp. #5497

  • Fix interpretation difference of the pure-Python and the Cython-based HTTP parsers construct a yarl.URL object for HTTP request-target.

    Before this fix, the Python parser would turn the URI’s absolute-path for //some-path into / while the Cython code preserved it as //some-path. Now, both do the latter. #5498

Bugfixes

  • Preserve MultipartWriter parts headers on write. Refactor the way how Payload.headers are handled. Payload instances now always have headers and Content-Type defined. Fix Payload Content-Disposition header reset after initial creation. #3035

3.1.0 (2018-03-21)

Welcome to aiohttp 3.1 release.

This is an incremental release, fully backward compatible with aiohttp 3.0.

But we have added several new features.

The most visible one is app.add_routes() (an alias for existing app.router.add_routes(). The addition is very important because all aiohttp docs now uses app.add_routes() call in code snippets. All your existing code still do register routes / resource without any warning but you’ve got the idea for a favorite way: noisy app.router.add_get() is replaced by app.add_routes().

The library does not make a preference between decorators:

routes = web.RouteTableDef()

@routes.get('/')
async def hello(request):
    return web.Response(text="Hello, world")

app.add_routes(routes)

and route tables as a list:

async def hello(request):
    return web.Response(text="Hello, world")

app.add_routes([web.get('/', hello)])

Both ways are equal, user may decide basing on own code taste.

Also we have a lot of minor features, bug fixes and documentation updates, see below.

Features

  • Relax JSON content-type checking in the ClientResponse.json() to allow “application/xxx+json” instead of strict “application/json”. (#2206)

  • Bump C HTTP parser to version 2.8 (#2730)

  • Accept a coroutine as an application factory in web.run_app and gunicorn worker. (#2739)

  • Implement application cleanup context (app.cleanup_ctx property). (#2747)

  • Make writer.write_headers a coroutine. (#2762)

  • Add tracking signals for getting request/response bodies. (#2767)

  • Deprecate ClientResponseError.code in favor of .status to keep similarity with response classes. (#2781)

  • Implement app.add_routes() method. (#2787)

  • Implement web.static() and RouteTableDef.static() API. (#2795)

  • Install a test event loop as default by asyncio.set_event_loop(). The change affects aiohttp test utils but backward compatibility is not broken for 99.99% of use cases. (#2804)

  • Refactor ClientResponse constructor: make logically required constructor arguments mandatory, drop _post_init() method. (#2820)

  • Use app.add_routes() in server docs everywhere (#2830)

  • Websockets refactoring, all websocket writer methods are converted into coroutines. (#2836)

  • Provide Content-Range header for Range requests (#2844)

Bugfixes

3.0.6 (2018-03-05)

  • Add _reuse_address and _reuse_port to web_runner.TCPSite.__slots__. (#2792)


3.0.5 (2018-02-27)

  • Fix InvalidStateError on processing a sequence of two RequestHandler.data_received calls on web server. (#2773)
