Sling Changelog

Notable changes between releases.

Latest

v1.2.0

  • Add Connect, Options, and Trace HTTP methods (c51967)

  • Skip receiving (i.e. decoding) 204 No Content responses (#31)

v1.1.0

  • Allow JSON decoding, regardless of response Content-Type (#26)

  • Add BodyProvider interface and setter so request Body encoding can be customized (#23)

  • Add Doer interface and setter so request sending behavior can be customized (#21)

  • Add SetBasicAuth setter for Authorization headers (#16)

  • Add Sling Body setter to set an io.Reader on the Request (#9)

v1.0.0

  • Added support for receiving and decoding error JSON structs

  • Renamed Sling JsonBody setter to BodyJSON (breaking)

  • Renamed Sling BodyStruct setter to BodyForm (breaking)

  • Renamed Sling fields httpClient, method, rawURL, and header to be internal (breaking)

  • Changed Do and Receive to skip response JSON decoding if "application/json" Content-Type is missing

  • Changed Sling.Receive(v interface{}) to Sling.Receive(successV, failureV interface{}) (breaking)

    • Previously Receive attempted to decode the response Body in all cases

    • Updated Receive will decode the response Body into successV for 2XX responses or decode the Body into failureV for other status codes. Pass a nil successV or failureV to skip JSON decoding into that value.

    • To upgrade, pass nil for the failureV argument or consider defining a JSON tagged struct appropriate for the API endpoint. (e.g. s.Receive(&issue, nil), s.Receive(&issue, &githubError))

    • To retain the old behavior, duplicate the first argument (e.g. s.Receive(&tweet, &tweet))

  • Changed Sling.Do(http.Request, v interface{}) to Sling.Do(http.Request, successV, failureV interface{}) (breaking)

    • See the changelog entry about Receive, the upgrade path is the same.
