Chucker v4.0.0

• Add syntax highlighting to the request/response body when is JSON [#930]
• Decoding of request and response bodies can now be customized. In order to do this a BodyDecoder interface needs to be implemented and installed in the ChuckerInterceptor via ChuckerInterceptor.addBinaryDecoder(decoder) method. Decoded bodies are then displayed in the Chucker UI. [#555]
• Create dynamic shortcut when ChuckerInterceptor added. Users can opt out of this feature using createShortcut(false) in ChuckerInterceptor.Builder [#588]
• Brotli compression support [#563]
• Added writeTransactions method to ChuckerCollector to export transactions to a file programmatically [#784]
• Added ability to save single transaction as .har file. [#696]
• Added ability to export list of transactions as .har file. [#880]
• Added support for Android 13 and notifications permission handling [#887]

  • Show GraphQL OperationName header to transaction title [#69], [#116]
  • Allows to filter transactions based on graphqlOperationName [#920]
• Added scroll to highlighted text search in response screen [#988]

Fixed

• Fixed a bug showing empty bodies as encoded or binary [#569] [#562]
• Fixed DiskReadViolation on ChuckerCollector [#975]
• Fixed request headers not being redacted in case of failures [#545].
• Fixed wrongful processing of one shot and duplex requests [#544].
• Fixed writing to database on the main thread [#487].

• Fixed StrictMode ThreadPolicy violations [#737]
• Fixed Memory Leak with Toasts: Use applicationContext instead of Activity [#810]
• Improved error message when trying to save empty bodies [#1038]

Removed

• Removed parametrized ChuckerInterceptor constructor in favour of builder pattern. Constructor that accepts only Context is still available.

• Updated Material to 1.8.0

Full Changelog: 3.4.0...4.0.0

Chucker v3.5.2

This release is a re-deployment of 3.5.1, since in that release aar file didn't upload properly on Maven Central, so 3.5.1 wasn't available to projects getting Chucker from Maven Central.

Chucker v3.5.1

This is hotfix release to avoid crashes for users, who still use throwable reporting feature.

Fixed

• Fix crash on Android 12 due to missing immutability flags in deprecated throwable reporting feature #653.

Chucker v3.5.0

Note: this release has an issue with apps targeting Android 12 making Chucker crash when notification with throwable clicked, so if your project still uses this feature we highly recommend to update to 3.5.2!

This is a patch release for developers preparing their projects for Android 12.

Added

• Support of apps targeting Android 12.

Fixed

• Fix crash on Android 12 due to missing immutability flags #593.
• Fix not setting request body type correctly #538.

Chucker v3.4.0

This is a new minor release with multiple fixes and one serious improvement which made us do a minor update instead of just patch - builder pattern for ChuckerInterceptor class. Previous constructor with multiple parameters is deprecated and will be removed in 4.x release.

Also, starting with this release we are switching to Keepachangelog format for our changelogs.

Added

• ChuckerInterceptor.Builder for fluent creation of the interceptor. It will also help us with preserving binary compatibility in future releases of 4.x. #462

Changed

• Bumped targetSDK and compileSDK to 30 (Android 11).

Removed

• kotlin-android-extensions plugin for better compatibility with Kotlin 1.4.20.

Fixed

• Fixed memory leak in MainActivity #465.
• Fixed GzipSource is not closed error reported by StrictMode #472.
• Fixed build failure for projects with new kotlin-parcelize plugin #480.

Deprecated

• ChuckerInterceptor constructor is now deprecated. Unless Context is the only parameter that you pass into the constructor you should migrate to builder.

Chucker v3.3.0

This is a new minor release with multiple fixes and improvements.
After this release, we are starting to work on a new major release 4.x with minSDK 21. Bumping minSDK to 21 is required to keep up with newer versions of OkHttp.

Versions 3.x will be supported for 6 months (till March 2021) getting bugfixes and minor improvements.

Summary of changes

• Added a new flag alwaysReadResponseBody into Chucker configuration to read the whole response body even if the consumer fails to consume it.
• Added port numbers as part of the URL. Numbers appear if they are different from default 80 or 443.
• Chucker now shows partially read application responses properly. Earlier in 3.2.0 such responses didn't appear in the UI.
• Transaction size is defined by actual payload size now, not by Content-length header.
• Added empty state UI for payloads, so no more guessing if there is some error or the payload is really empty.
• Added ability to export a list of transactions.
• Added ability to save a single transaction as a file.
• Added ability to format URL encoded forms with a button to switch between encoded/decoded URLs.
• Added generation of contrast background for image payload to distinguish Chucker UI from the image itself.
• Switched OkHttp dependency from implementation to api, since it is available in the public API.
• List items are now focusable on Android TV devices.
• Further improved test coverage.

Deprecations

• Throwables capturing feature is officially deprecated and will be removed in the next releases. More info in [#321].

Bugfixes

• Fixed [#311] with leaking Closable resource.
• Fixed [#314] with overlapping UI on some device.
• Fixed [#367] with empty shared text when Don't keep activities is turned on.
• Fixed [#366] with a crash when the process dies.
• Fixed [#394] with failing requests when FileNotFound error happens.
• Fixed [#410] with conflicts when other apps already use generic FileProvider.
• Fixed [#422] with IOException.

Dependency updates

• Added Fragment-ktx 1.2.5
• Added Palette-ktx 1.0.0
• Updated Kotlin to 1.4.10
• Updated Android Gradle plugin to 4.0.1
• Updated Coroutine to 1.3.9
