Treq

===================

Bugfixes
--------

- Correct a typo in the treq 20.4.0 package metadata that prevented upload to PyPI (`pypa/twine589 <https://github.com/pypa/twine/issues/589>`__)

===================

Features
--------

- Support for Python 3.8 and PyPy3: treq is now tested with these interpreters. (`271 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/271>`__)


Bugfixes
--------

- `treq.client.HTTPClient.request()` and its aliases no longer raise `UnicodeEncodeError` when passed a Unicode *url* and non-empty *params*.
Now the URL and query parameters are concatenated as documented. (`264 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/264>`__)
- In treq 20.3.0 the *params* argument didn't accept parameter names or values that contain the characters ``&`` or `.
Now these characters are properly escaped. (`282 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/282>`__)


Improved Documentation
----------------------

- The treq documentation has been revised to emphasize use of `treq.client.HTTPClient` over the module-level convenience functions in the `treq` module. (`276 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/276>`__)

===================

Features
--------

- Python 3.7 support. (`228 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/228>`__)


Bugfixes
--------

- `treq.testing.RequestTraversalAgent` now passes its memory reactor to the `twisted.web.server.Site` it creates, preventing the ``Site`` from polluting the global reactor. (`225 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/225>`__)
- `treq.testing` no longer generates deprecation warnings about ``twisted.test.proto_helpers.MemoryReactor``. (`253 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/253>`__)


Improved Documentation
----------------------

- The ``download_file.py`` example has been updated to do a streaming download with *unbuffered=True*. (`233 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/233>`__)
- The *agent* parameter to `treq.request()` has been documented. (`235 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/235>`__)
- The type of the *headers* element of a response tuple passed to `treq.testing.RequestSequence` is now correctly documented as `str`. (`237 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/237>`__)


Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Drop support for Python 3.4. (`240 <https://github.com/twisted/treq/issues/240>`__)
