- CONNECT requests do not generate the usual http events. Instead, they
generate the http_connect event and handlers then have the option of setting an
error response to abort the connect.
- The connect handler is called for both upstream proxy and regular proxy CONNECTs.
The primary motivation here (and for all the other moving around) is to present
a clean "front of house" to library users, and to migrate primary objects to
the top of the module hierarchy.
- Zap various occurrences of Python2 in docs and scripts
- Remove six from netlib, and some other places where obvious project-wide
search and replace works.
- Hide links to internal code listings, and link to github instead
- Improve formatting of code/example captions
- Fix outdated documentation of command-line options
- Complete documentation of all events + improved formatting
- tcp_open -> tcp_start, tcp_close -> tcp_end to reduce confusion
These are too verbose/low info for these docs. We should include pointers to
where to start reading the code, and perhaps later we can include full
auto-generated API docs separately.
This PR improves our handling of HTTP message body encodings:
- The unaltered message body is now accessible as `.raw_content`
- The "content-encoding"-decoded content (i.e. gzip removed) content
is not `.content`, as this is what we want in 99% of the cases.
- `.text` now provides the "content-encoding"-decoded and then
"content-type charset"-decoded message body.
- The decoded values for `.content` and `.text` are cached,
so that repeated access and `x.text = x.text` is cheap.
- The `decoded()` decorator is now deprecated, as we can now just use
`.content`. Similarly `HTTPMessage.get_decoded_content()` is
deprecated.
