Changelog

6.0.4 (2022-12-24)

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a type annotations regression introduced in v6.0.2 under Python versions <3.10. It was caused by importing certain types only available in newer versions. (#798)

6.0.3 (2022-12-03)

Features

  • Declared the official support for Python 3.11 — by @mlegner. (#872)

6.0.2 (2022-01-24)

Bugfixes

  • Revert #644, restore type annotations to as-of 5.2.0 version. (#688)

6.0.1 (2022-01-23)

Bugfixes

  • Restored back MultiDict, CIMultiDict, MultiDictProxy, and CIMutiDictProxy generic type arguments; they are parameterized by value type, but the key type is fixed by container class.

    MultiDict[int] means MutableMultiMapping[str, int]. The key type of MultiDict is always str, while all str-like keys are accepted by API and converted to str internally.

    The same is true for CIMultiDict[int] which means MutableMultiMapping[istr, int]. str-like keys are accepted but converted to istr internally. (#682)

6.0.0 (2022-01-22)

Features

  • Use METH_FASTCALL where it makes sense.

    MultiDict.add() is 2.2 times faster now, CIMultiDict.add() is 1.5 times faster. The same boost is applied to get*(), setdefault(), and pop*() methods. (#681)

Bugfixes

  • Fixed type annotations for keys of multidict mapping classes. (#644)

  • Support Multidict[int] for pure-python version. __class_getitem__ is already provided by C Extension, making it work with the pure-extension too. (#678)

Deprecations and Removals

  • Dropped Python 3.6 support (#680)

Misc

5.2.0 (2021-10-03)

Features
