hackney 1.17.0 has been released #erlang #elixirlang

Happy to announce the new stable release of hackney :) Enjoy!

Overview:

hackney is an HTTP client library for Erlang.

Changes:

  • fix SSL compatibility with erlang OTP 23
  • handle empty trailers
  • fix race condition in connection pool
  • fix memory leak in connection pool
  • IDNA update to unicode 13.0.0
  • fix build on macosx with OTP >= 20.1
  • fix network Location on redirect
  • produce uppercase hexadecimal in URLS
  • pool queue count metric is now named queue_count
  • miscellaneous fixes in documentation

Possible breaking changes:

  • The pool queue count metric is now named queue_count. You should update your dashboard to reflect it.
  • Possible breaking changes when producing uppercase hexadecimal in urls. This changes the behaviour of urlencode and pathencode to produce uppercase hexadecimal to comply with the RFC3986 which may affect systems using URL as signature or in an hash.
