See all unreleased issues and PRs

🕗 Expiration & headers:

  • Add support for Cache-Control: min-fresh

  • Add support for Cache-Control: max-stale

  • Add support for Cache-Control: only-if-cached

  • Add support for Cache-Control: stale-if-error

  • Add support for Cache-Control: stale-while-error

  • Add support for Vary

  • Revalidate for Cache-Control: no-cache request or response header

  • Revalidate for Cache-Control: max-age=0, must-revalidate response headers

  • Add an attribute CachedResponse.revalidated to indicate if a cached response was revalidated for the current request

⚙️ Session settings:

  • All settings that affect cache behavior can now be accessed and modified via CachedSession.settings

  • Add always_revalidate session setting to always revalidate before using a cached response (if a validator is available).

  • Add only_if_cached session setting to return only cached results without sending real requests

  • Add stale_while_revalidate session setting to return a stale response initially, while a non-blocking request is sent to refresh the response

  • Make behavior for stale_if_error partially consistent with Cache-Control: stale-if-error: Add support for time values (int, timedelta, etc.) in addition to True/False

⚙️ Request settings:

  • Add only_if_cached option to CachedSession.request() and send() to return only cached results without sending real requests

  • Add refresh option to CachedSession.request() and send() to revalidate with the server before using a cached response

  • Add force_refresh option to CachedSession.request() and send() to awlays make and cache a new request regardless of existing cache contents

  • Make behavior for expire_after=0 consistent with Cache-Control: max-age=0: if the response has a validator, save it to the cache but revalidate on use.

    • The constant requests_cache.DO_NOT_CACHE may be used to completely disable caching for a request

💾 Backends:

  • DynamoDB:

    • For better read performance and usage of read throughput:

      • The cache key is now used as the partition key

      • Redirects are now cached only in-memory and not persisted

      • Cache size (len()) now uses a fast table estimate instead of a full scan

    • Store responses in plain (human-readable) document format instead of fully serialized binary

    • Create default table in on-demand mode instead of provisioned

    • Add optional integration with DynamoDB TTL to improve performance for removing expired responses

      • This is enabled by default, but may be disabled

    • Decode JSON and text response bodies so the saved response can be fully human-readable/editable. May be disabled with decode_content=False.

  • Filesystem:

    • The default file format has been changed from pickle to JSON

    • Decode JSON and text response bodies so the saved response can be fully human-readable/editable. May be disabled with decode_content=False.

  • MongoDB:

    • Store responses in plain (human-readable) document format instead of fully serialized binary

    • Add optional integration with MongoDB TTL to improve performance for removing expired responses

      • Disabled by default. See ‘Backends: MongoDB’ docs for details.

    • Decode JSON and text response bodies so the saved response can be fully human-readable/editable. May be disabled with decode_content=False.

  • Redis:

    • Add ttl_offset argument to add a delay between cache expiration and deletion

  • SQLite:

    • Improve performance for removing expired responses with delete()

    • Improve performance (slightly) with a large number of threads and high request rate

    • Add count() method to count responses, with option to exclude expired responses (performs a fast indexed count instead of slower in-memory filtering)

    • Add size() method to get estimated size of the database (including in-memory databases)

    • Add sorted() method with sorting and other query options

    • Add wal parameter to enable write-ahead logging

  • SQLite, Redis, MongoDB, and GridFS:

    • Close open database connections when CachedSession is used as a contextmanager, or if CachedSession.close() is called

↔️ Request matching:

  • Add serializer name to cache keys to avoid errors due to switching serializers

  • Always skip both cache read and write for requests excluded by allowable_methods (previously only skipped write)

  • Ignore and redact common authentication headers and request parameters by default. This provides some default recommended values for ignored_parameters, to avoid accidentally storing common credentials in the cache. This will have no effect if ignored_parameters is already set.

  • Support distinct matching for requests that differ only by a parameter in ignored_parameters (e.g., for a request sent both with and without authentication)

  • Support distinct matching for requests that differ only by duplicate request params (e.g, a=1 vs ?a=1&a=2)

ℹ️ Convenience methods:

  • Add expired and invalid arguments to BaseCache.delete() (to replace remove_expired_responses())

  • Add urls and requests arguments to BaseCache.delete() (to replace delete_url())

  • Add older_than argument to BaseCache.delete() to delete responses older than a given value

  • Add requests argument to BaseCache.delete() to delete responses matching the given requests

  • Add BaseCache.contains() method to check for cached requests either by key or by requests.Request object

  • Add url argument to BaseCache.contains() method (to replace has_url())

  • Add BaseCache.filter() method to get responses from the cache with various filters

  • Add BaseCache.reset_expiration() method to reset expiration for existing responses

  • Add BaseCache.recreate_keys() method to recreate cache keys for all previously cached responses (e.g., to preserve cache data after an update that changes request matching behavior)

  • Update BaseCache.urls into a method that takes optional filter params, and returns sorted unique URLs

ℹ️ Response attributes and type hints:

  • Add OriginalResponse type, which adds type hints to requests.Response objects for extra attributes added by requests-cache:

    • cache_key

    • created_at

    • expires

    • from_cache

    • is_expired

    • revalidated

  • OriginalResponse.cache_key and expires will be populated for any new response that was written to the cache

  • Add request wrapper methods with return type hints for all HTTP methods (CachedSession.get(), head(), etc.)

  • Set CachedResponse.cache_key attribute for responses read from lower-level storage methods (items(), values(), etc.)

🧩 Compatibility fixes:

  • PyInstaller: Fix potential AttributeError due to undetected imports when requests-cache is bundled in a PyInstaller package

  • requests-oauthlib: Add support for header values as bytes for compatibility with OAuth1 features

  • redis-py: Fix forwarding connection parameters passed to RedisCache for redis-py 4.2 and python <=3.8

  • Fix issue on Windows with occasional missing CachedResponse.created_at timestamp

  • Add CachedRequest.path_url property for compatibility with RequestEncodingMixin

  • Fix potential AttributeError due to undetected imports when requests-cache is bundled in a PyInstaller package

  • Fix AttributeError when attempting to unpickle a CachedSession object, and instead disable pickling by raising a NotImplementedError

  • Raise an error for invalid expiration string values (except for headers containing httpdates)

    • Previously, this would be quietly ignored, and the response would be cached indefinitely

  • Fix behavior for stale_if_error if an error response code is added to allowable_codes

📦 Dependencies:

  • Replace appdirs with platformdirs

⚠️ Deprecations:

The following methods are deprecated, and will be removed in a future release. The recommended replacements are listed below. If this causes problems for you, please open an issue to discuss.

  • CachedSession.remove_expired_responses(): BaseCache.delete(expired=True)

  • BaseCache.remove_expired_responses(): BaseCache.delete(expired=True)

  • BaseCache.delete_url(): BaseCache.delete(urls=[...])

  • BaseCache.delete_urls(): BaseCache.delete(urls=[...])

  • BaseCache.has_key(): BaseCache.contains()

  • BaseCache.has_url(): BaseCache.contains(url=...)

  • BaseCache.keys(): BaseCache.responses.keys() (for all keys), or BaseCache.filter() (for filtering options)

  • BaseCache.values(): BaseCache.responses.values() (for all values), or BaseCache.filter() (for filtering options)

  • BaseCache.response_count(): len(BaseCache.responses) (for all responses), or BaseCache.filter() (for filtering options)

⚠️ Breaking changes:

  • After initialization, cache settings can only be accesed and modified via CachedSession.settings. Previously, some settings could be modified by setting them on either CachedSession or BaseCache. In some cases this could silently fail or otherwise have undefined behavior.

  • BaseCache.urls has been replaced with a method that returns a list of URLs.

  • DynamoDB table structure has changed. If you are using the DynamoDB backend, you will need to create a new table when upgrading to 1.0. See DynamoDB backend docs for more details.

Minor breaking changes:

The following changes only affect advanced or undocumented usage, and are not expected to impact most users:

  • The arguments match_headers and ignored_parameters must be passed to CachedSession. Previously, these could also be passed to a BaseCache instance.

  • The CachedSession backend argument must be either an instance or string alias. Previously it would also accept a backend class.

  • All serializer-specific BaseStorage subclasses have been removed, and merged into their respective parent classes. This includes SQLitePickleDict, MongoPickleDict, and GridFSPickleDict.

    • All BaseStorage subclasses now have a serializer attribute, which will be unused if set to None.

  • The cache_control module (added in 0.7) has been split up into multiple modules in a new policy subpackage

Thanks to Code Shelter and contributors for making this release possible!

🕗 Expiration:

  • Cached responses are now stored with an absolute expiration time, so CachedSession.expire_after no longer applies retroactively. To reset expiration for previously cached items, see below:

  • Add support for overriding original expiration in CachedSession.remove_expired_responses()

  • Add support for setting expiration for individual requests

  • Add support for setting expiration based on URL glob patterns

  • Add support for setting expiration as a datetime

  • Add support for explicitly disabling expiration with -1 (Since None may be ambiguous in some cases)

💾 Backends:

    • Allow passing user paths (~/path-to-cache) to database file with db_path param

    • Add timeout parameter

  • All: Make default table names consistent across backends ('http_cache')

💾 Serialization:

Note: Due to the following changes, responses cached with previous versions of requests-cache will be invalid. These old responses will be treated as expired, and will be refreshed the next time they are requested. They can also be manually converted or removed, if needed (see notes below).

  • Add example script to convert an existing cache from previous serialization format to new one

  • When running remove_expired_responses(), also remove responses that are invalid due to updated serialization format

  • Add CachedResponse class to wrap cached requests.Response objects, which makes additional cache information available to client code

  • Add CachedHTTPResponse class to wrap urllib3.response.HTTPResponse objects, available via CachedResponse.raw

    • Re-construct the raw response on demand to avoid storing extra data in the cache

    • Improve emulation of raw request behavior used for iteration, streaming requests, etc.

  • Add BaseCache.urls property to get all URLs persisted in the cache

  • Add optional support for itsdangerous for more secure serialization

Other features:

  • Replace some old bugs with new and different bugs, just to keep life interesting

📦 Depedencies:

  • Add itsdangerous as a dependency for secure serialization

  • Add url-normalize as a dependency for better request normalization and reducing duplications

⚠️ Deprecations & removals:

  • Drop support for python 2.7, 3.4, and 3.5

  • Deprecate core module; all imports should be made from top-level package instead

    • e.g.: from requests_cache import CachedSession

    • Imports from requests_cache.core will raise a DeprecationWarning, and will be removed in a future release

  • Rename BaseCache.remove_old_entries() to remove_expired_responses(), to match its wrapper method CachedSession.remove_expired_responses()
