What's New?

7.0.0

CFHttp HTTP Client

This client now returns more accurate status codes for 502 Bad Gateway and 408 Request Timeout responses.

Previously, these responses were returned as 504 Gateway Timeout responses. Hyper now normalizes the responses from the different CFML engines into a consistent response. 502 Bad Gateway is returned instead of 504 Gateway Timeout for invalid hosts. 408 Request Timeout is returned if the request takes longer than the configured timeout value.

Breaking Changes

If you were previously checking specifically for 504 status codes for bad hosts, you need to now either check for 502 status codes or use a more general method, like isServerError or isError.

If you were previously checking specifically for 504 status codes or isServerError for timed out requests, you need to now either check for 408 status codes, isClientError, or the more general isError.

6.1.0

Add head and options shortcut methods.

6.0.0

• Add xml support and an asXML method to set the body format and Content-Type header.

• Add adobe@2023 to testing matrix.

Breaking Changes

• Remove default Content-Type header. You must set this manually or use a format helper, such as asJson.

• Dropped adobe@2016 support.

5.0.1

Correctly handle cases when the body is a string and format is JSON.

5.0.0

Add a debug method to see what the HTTP client generates.

Breaking Changes

HyperHttpClientInterface now requires a debug method.

/**
 * Return a struct of information showing how the client will execute the HyperRequest.
 * This will be used by a developer to debug any differences between the generated
 * request values and the expected request values.
 *
 * @req     The HyperRequest to debug.
 *
 * @returns A struct of information detailing how the client would execute the HyperRequest.
 */
public struct function debug( required HyperRequest req );

4.0.3

• Do not prepend the base url when a full url is passed.

• Add resolveUrls and encodeUrl properties to the memento.

• Correctly set the encodeUrl property when cloning a request.

4.0.2

4.0.1

Fix HyperBuilder example in the docs.

4.0.0

Allow adding multiple query params with the same key.

Breaking Changes

Previously, query params were stored as a struct. Some APIs expect multiple values for the same query param name to be passed as separate arguments. Hyper now stores the query params as an array and provides new methods for interacting with query params:

• getQueryParamByName

• getAllQueryParamsByName

• withQueryParams

• appendQueryParam

• appendQueryParams

• hasQueryParam

The following methods still exist, but now interact with arrays of query param structs instead of a simple struct.

• getQueryParams

• setQueryParams

The following methods have been deprecated:

Deprecated Method	Replacement Method
getQueryParam	getQueryParamByName
