v3.1.0

Compare Source

Released 2024-11-13

• Drop support for Python 3.8. :pr:5623
• Update minimum dependency versions to latest feature releases.
  Werkzeug >= 3.1, ItsDangerous >= 2.2, Blinker >= 1.9. :pr:5624,5633
• Provide a configuration option to control automatic option
  responses. :pr:5496
• Flask.open_resource/open_instance_resource and
  Blueprint.open_resource take an encoding parameter to use when
  opening in text mode. It defaults to utf-8. :issue:5504
• Request.max_content_length can be customized per-request instead of only
  through the MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH config. Added
  MAX_FORM_MEMORY_SIZE and MAX_FORM_PARTS config. Added documentation
  about resource limits to the security page. :issue:5625
• Add support for the Partitioned cookie attribute (CHIPS), with the
  SESSION_COOKIE_PARTITIONED config. :issue:5472
• -e path takes precedence over default .env and .flaskenv files.
  load_dotenv loads default files in addition to a path unless
  load_defaults=False is passed. :issue:5628
• Support key rotation with the SECRET_KEY_FALLBACKS config, a list of old
  secret keys that can still be used for unsigning. Extensions will need to
  add support. :issue:5621
• Fix how setting host_matching=True or subdomain_matching=False
  interacts with SERVER_NAME. Setting SERVER_NAME no longer restricts
  requests to only that domain. :issue:5553
• Request.trusted_hosts is checked during routing, and can be set through
  the TRUSTED_HOSTS config. :issue:5636

  the Flask concrete class. :pr:5270

• Fix a typo in an error message for the flask run --key option. :pr:5344
• Session data is untagged without relying on the built-in json.loads
object_hook. This allows other JSON providers that don't implement that.

• Address more type findings when using mypy strict mode. :pr:5383

v3.0.0

Compare Source

• Remove previously deprecated code. :pr:4995

  • The push and pop methods of the deprecated _app_ctx_stack and
    _request_ctx_stack objects are removed. top still exists to give
    extensions more time to update, but it will be removed.
  • The FLASK_ENV environment variable, ENV config key, and app.env
    property are removed.
  • The session_cookie_name, send_file_max_age_default, use_x_sendfile,
    propagate_exceptions, and templates_auto_reload properties on app
    are removed.
  • The JSON_AS_ASCII, JSON_SORT_KEYS, JSONIFY_MIMETYPE, and

  signals_available attribute is deprecated. :issue:5056

• Signals support async subscriber functions. :pr:5049

  binary file instead. :issue:4989

• If a blueprint is created with an empty name it raises a ValueError.
  :issue:5010

• SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN does not fall back to SERVER_NAME. The default is not
  to set the domain, which modern browsers interpret as an exact match rather than
  a subdomain match. Warnings about localhost and IP addresses are also removed.
  :issue:5051

• The routes command shows each rule's subdomain or host when domain
  matching is in use. :issue:5004
