Release notes
4.2.6 fix HttpsClient: post body
4.2.4 res.fullBodyString() for bodies > 65kb
4.2.3 Adds gzip filter. Eg. Filters.GZIP(HttpClient) or .withFilter(Filters.GZIP)
4.2.2 throw if no server in Routing when calling start, stop, serveE2E.
4.2.1 Query params are now passed to serveE2E
4.2.0: Breaking change: Most precise handler no longer beats first declared match. Fix: Composed routes filter as expected.
To find a matching handler for a Req, we recurse “left to right and deepest
first” through nested routes, ie. routes attached to top level routes
using withRoutes(routes), ending finally with the top level routes e.g.
get('/', async()=> ResOf())
.withRoutes(
routes.withRoutes(furtherNestedRoutes)
)
furtherNestedRoutes is traversed followed by routes then finally the top
level routes.

4.1.3: Breaking change: Res Convenience methods for responding
Redirect is now a static method Res.Redirect as we provide a number of
convenience methods eg. Res.OK() and Res.GatewayTimeout.
4.1.2: Convenience methods for starting server
We provide HttpServer(3000) and HttpsServer(3000, certs) as quick easy ways to provide a server.
4.1.1: Fix: HttpClient was not streaming out
See streaming docs for more info
4.1.0: streaming by default
NativeHttpServer and HttpClient stream in and out by default. A handle on
the stream is provided by req.bodyStream() and a res is streamed out if
a Res(200, readable) is provided, i.e. a Readable stream body.
4.0.2: Move ssl-root-cas from prod code to test
We use ssl-root-cas to trust self-signed certs for testing NativeHttpsServer.
This has been moved from prod code to the test code. Needs releasing because
otherwise ssl-root-cas needs to be a dependency.
4.0.1: Handle on incoming Req stream
As we provide this handle via req.bodyStream(), accessing the form on an
incoming Req is now done via req.bodyForm() in order to realise the stream.
req.bodyString() will also realise it and work as expected.
4.0.0: ! Breaking change: drop support for Koa and Express backends
In order to evolve the core library faster support for Express and Koa backends has been dropped. Happy to add back later.
3.2.2: bug fix: decodeURIComponent no longer called on response body.
3.2.0: Filters only apply per routing
combining routes using withRoutes no longer combines filters from each routing.
3.1.0: New backend server: NativeHttpsServer.
