• upgraded tika-core to 2.9.2
• removed org.owasp/dependency-check-maven

• upgraded tika-core to 1.28.3 (CVE-2022-33879)

• upgraded tika-core to 1.28.3 to address CVE-2022-30973
• upgraded okhttp to 4.11.0
• upgraded gson to 2.10.1

Just a refresh of dependencies:

• upgraded gson to 2.8.9
• upgraded tika-core to 1.28.2
• upgraded okhttp libraries to 4.9.3

• upgraded okhttp to 4.9.1
• added basic JSON support for requests and responses

• The Session class now has methods for setting timeouts (connect/read/write), proxy and redirects

• replaced Apache's HttpClient with Square's OkHttp. This was unfortunately necessary as Android ships with an outdated version of Apache's HttpClient, resulting in method signature errors.
• GET/DELETE requests no longer support bodies (OkHttp doesn't support that)

• added support for body in GET request

• added methods to Request and Requests classes that take host and path as parameters (the path parameter gets correctly escaped, e.g., spaces get replaced with %20) - the other methods only taking a URL parameter assume the URL to be valid

• moved URL assembly for GET requests into helper class URLBuilder (package com.github.fracpete.requests4j.request)

• Added support for sending a payload with the DELETE method. Though this is not recommended by RFC 7231, section 4.3.5, other Python frameworks like requests and django support it

• introduced Resendable interface, implemented by parameter, attachment and Request classes (NB: a stream parameter from an InputStream cannot be resent)
• Request.canResend() method returns whether the request can be resent again (eg if it fails due to outdated authentication headers)

• parameters can also be String[] or java.util.List objects now, getting added to the URL multiple times

• made it easier to post a single file or byte array via Request.attachment(AbstractAttachment); adds a Content-Disposition header with attachment (byte array) or attachment; filename=NAME (file)

• added support for missing OPTIONS method

• now handles relative redirects properly

• swapped out underlying code, now using Apache's HttpClient
• separated core package into request and response
• removed hostname verification support

• added basic support for proxies in Request objects (proxy(...), noProxy())

• introduced HTTPResponse interface (package com.github.fracpete.requests4j.core) and the ability to supply a configured HTTPResponse object to the execute method, eg for streaming data rather than storing it in memory
• new HTTPResponse classes in package com.github.fracpete.requests4j.core:
  • FileResponse - writes received data straight to specified file
  • StreamResponse - writes received data to provided java.io.OutputStream

• initial release
