The first officially stable release.
We are working hard on aiohttp stability.
This release is tagged as 1.0 -- the library is mature enough for this.
Backward compatibility with previous releases is kept as usual.
Deprecation period is 1.5 years.

The list of changes is pretty long, but the most significant ones are:

Common

  • HTTP headers are title-cased (Content-Length) now, they was upper-cased (CONTENT-LENGTH) in previous releases.
  • aiohttp.Timeout is alias for async_timeout.timeout

Client

  • Client cookies support was rewritten in backward incompatible manner to split cookies with the same name but belonging to different domains #1173
  • ProxyConnector is deprecated, regular methods like ClientSession.get() accepts proxy and proxy_auth parameters explicitly #998
  • Default settings for aiohttp.TCPConnector uses asynchronous DNS requests and cache for given DNS resolutions #1152

Server

  • Router has handy methods for route adding like app.router.add_get(), app.router.add_post() etc. #986
  • Request has .multipart() methods for easy access to multipart encoded data #1067

Testing

  • Significant improvements in aiohttp testing suite: new parameters for tuning test server and client are added
