urllib3 2.3.0

🚀 urllib3 is fundraising for HTTP/2 support

urllib3 is raising ~$40,000 USD to release HTTP/2 support and ensure long-term sustainable maintenance of the project after a sharp decline in financial support for 2023. If your company or organization uses Python and would benefit from HTTP/2 support in Requests, pip, cloud SDKs, and thousands of other projects please consider contributing financially to ensure HTTP/2 support is developed sustainably and maintained for the long-haul.

Thank you for your support.

Features

• Added HTTPResponse.shutdown() to stop any ongoing or future reads for a specific response. It calls shutdown(SHUT_RD) on the underlying socket. This feature was sponsored by LaunchDarkly. (https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2868)
• Added support for JavaScript Promise Integration on Emscripten. This enables more efficient WebAssembly requests and streaming, and makes it possible to use in Node.js if you launch it as node --experimental-wasm-stack-switching. (https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3400)
• Added the proxy_is_tunneling property to HTTPConnection and HTTPSConnection. (https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3285)
• Added pickling support to NewConnectionError and NameResolutionError. (https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3480)

Bugfixes

• Fixed an issue in debug logs where the HTTP version was rendering as "HTTP/11" instead of "HTTP/1.1". (https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3489)

Deprecations and Removals

• Removed support for Python 3.8. (https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3492)
