hackney 0.10.0 has been released. This is a service release with some fixes and improvements.

Changes

• improve multipart handling: With this change, we can now calculate the
  full multipart stream content-length using hackney_multipart:len_mp_stream/2 .
• add hackney:setopts/2 to set options to a request when reusing it.
• add hackney:send_request/3 to pass new options to a request.
• add the {stream_to, Pid} setting to a request to send the messages
  from an asynchronous response to another PID.
• fix Host header: some server do not comply well with the spec and
  fail to parse the port when they are listening on 80 or 443. This
  change fix it.
• fix: make sure we are re-using connections with asynchronous
  responses.

Breaking changes:

• All messages from an async response are now under the
  format {hackney_response, Ref, ... } to distinct hackney messages
  from others in a process easily.
• You can only make an async response at a time. Ie if you are are doing
  a persistent request (reusing the same reference) you will need to
  pass the async option again to the request. For that purpose the
  functions hackney:send_request/3 and hackney:setopts/2 have been
  added.
• multipart messages have changed. See the documentation for more
  information.

hackney 0.8.0 has been released

hackney 0.8.0 is a major release of hackney. With this release the API will not evolve much until the
1.0 release sometimes in january.

Changes

• breaking change: hackney now return a reference instead of an opaque record. The
  information is maintained in an ETS table. The same reference is now
  used for async response requests.

Before you were doing

{ok, Status, RespHeaders, Client1} = hackney:request(Method, URL,
                                                Headers, Payload,
                                                Options),
{ok, Body, Client2} = hackney:body(Client1).

And you needed to keep around the last opaque Client record. Now you only need to pass the reference you get when you start the request:

{ok, Status, RespHeaders, Ref} = hackney:request(Method, URL,
                                                    Headers, Payload,
                                                    Options),
{ok, Body} = hackney:body(Ref).

This change has been done to make the api simpler while keeping all the features available in hackney (in particularly you still don't pass messages by default in hackney). Also the same reference is now used when you decide to receive the response asynchronously. Have a look in the README for more informations.

• breaking change: stream_body_request/2 and stream_multipart_request/2 functions has
  been renamed to send_body/2 and send_multipart_body/2 .
• breaking change: remove hackney:close_stream/1 function. You only need to
  use hackney:close/1 now.
• breaking change: rename hackney:raw/1 function to
  hackney:cancel_request/1.
• breaking change: the hakney pool handler based on dispcount is now
  available in its own repository so hackney doe not depends on dispcount.
• fix: canceling and closing a request now make sure the async response
  process is killed.
• fix: make sure we pass a Transfer-Encoding: chunked header when we
  send a body without content-length.
• fix: make sure the client is correctly reconnected when we reuse a
  reference.

The full changelog is available here: 0.7.0...0.8.0

Hackney is also available as a source archive or via expm.

Enjoy!
