tld

• Fix for update-tld-names returns a non-zero exit code on success (introduced with optimisations in 0.9.4).
• Minor tests improvements.

• Tests improvements.

    This release contains backward incompatible changes. You should update

    The ``active_only`` option has been removed from ``get_tld``, ``get_fld``
    and ``parse_url`` functions. Update your code accordingly.

• Removed active_only option from get_tld, get_fld
  and parse_url functions.
• Correctly handling exceptions (!) in the original TLD list.
• Fixes in documentation.
• Added parse_tld function.

    This release contains backward incompatible changes. You should update
    your code.

    Old ``get_tld`` functionality remain is moved to ``get_fld`` (first-level
    domain definition). The ``as_object`` argument (False by default) has been
    deprecated for ``get_fld``.

        res = get_tld("http://www.google.co.uk", as_object=True)

**Old behaviour**

        In: res.domain
        Out: 'google'

        In: res.extension
        Out: 'co.uk'

        In: res.subdomain
        Out: 'www'

        In: res.suffix
        Out: 'co.uk'

        In: res.tld
        Out: 'google.co.uk'

**New behaviour**

        In: res.fld
        Out: 'google.co.uk'

        In: res.tld
        Out: 'co.uk'

        In: res.domain
        Out: 'google'

        In: res.subdomain
        Out: 'www'

When used without ``as_object`` it returns ``co.uk``.

**Recap**

If you have been happily using old version of ``get_tld`` function without
``as_object`` argument set to ``True``, you might want to replace ``get_tld``
import with ``get_fld`` import:

        # Old
        from tld import get_tld
        get_tld('http://google.co.uk')

        # New
        from tld import get_fld
        get_fld('http://google.co.uk')

• Move to a Trie to match TLDs. This brings a speed up of 15-20%.
• It's now possible to search in public, private or all suffixes (old
  behaviour). Use search_public and search_private arguments accordingly.
  By default (to support old behavior), both are set to True.
• Correct TLD definitions.
• Domains like *****.xn--fiqs8s are now recognized as well.
• Due to usage of urlsplit instead of urlparse, the initial list of TLDs
  is assembled quicker (a speed-up of 15-20%).
• Docs/ directory is included in source distribution tarball.
• More tests.

• The fix_protocol argument respects protocol relative URLs.
• Change year in the license.
• Improved docstrings.
• TLD source updated to the latest version.

• Added base path override for local .dat file.
• python setup.py test can used to execute the tests.

• Fix relative import in non-package for update-tls-names script. #15
• get_tld got a new argument fix_protocol, which fixes the missing
  protocol, having prepended "https" if missing or incorrect.

• Tested against Python 3.5, 3.6 and PyPy.
