🚀 v0.6 Release

We are just about finished with all the bugfixes, maintenance items, and new features that I wanted to fit into the next release. If nothing else comes up during testing, I would like to create a new release on Friday, April 9.

Since this includes a large number of changes, I would appreciate it if any other users or contributors would test out these changes with whatever code you already happen to have that uses requests-cache. You can either check out the master branch, or try the pre-release build:

pip install -U --pre requests-cache

See:

• Updated documentation at readthedocs
• Full list of PRs and issues included in the v0.6 milestone
• High-level summary of changes in HISTORY.md
• Updated list of contributors in CONTRIBUTORS.md

Fyi, I also added an example script to convert an existing cache to the new format, in case anyone really wants to keep their current data after updating.
