Changelog

1.13.0 - 2020-05-21

  • Update client to query a single API server instead of multiple ones in parallel by default.

    Previously, we queried 6 Yubico API servers in parallel for high availability and performance reasons.

    Now api.yubico.com is globally distributed and load balanced so there is no need for us to do that anymore and we can just query a single API server and let the server handle HA and load-balancing.

    Users who run their own internal Yubikey validation servers can still specify a list of servers by passing api_urls argument to the client constructor (same as before).

    Contributed by @mallensb and @nrw505. Part of #31 and #32.

1.12.0 - 2019-11-18

  • Update code to retry HTTP requests for server errors which might work on a retry (5xx status codes returned by the server). Those errors could simply indicate a gateway or a proxy error which might work on a retry.

    Contributed by Nigel Williams (@nrw505) #30

  • Pin minimum version for requests dependency to v2.22.0.

  • Update the code so we don’t throw an exception if one of the multiple servers we query has issues.

    We query multiple servers in parallel purely for availability reasons and the consistency / sync part is taken care by the server side. The client returns immediately as soon as it receives one positive or a negative response.

  • Update code so we send User-Agent header which includes client version information and platform string with each HTTP request.

  • Also test the code with Python 3.8.0 and indicate we also support Python 3.8.

1.11.0 - 2019-07-06

  • Drop support for Python 2.6. #28
  • Test the code and verify it works with the following Python versions: * Python 3.3 * Python 3.4 * Python 3.5 * Python 3.6 * Python 3.7 * PyPy 2 * PyPy 3 #28

1.10.0 - 2015-10-02

  • Fix compatibility issue with Python versions >= 3.0 <= 3.3 #22

  • Pin requests dependency to the latest version (2.7) #25 #27

    Contribution by Wouter van Bommel, Vianney Carel.

  • Make sure the query parameters are unquoted when parsing them from the response. #23

    Contribution by Tamás Gulácsi.

1.9.1 - 2014-02-05

  • Fix Python 3 compatibility issue. #21

1.9.0 - 2014-01-16

  • To discourage bad practices, remove use_https argument from the Yubico class constructor all together. Also update DEFAULT_API_URLS variable to contain full URLs with a scheme (e.g. https://api.yubico.com/wsapi/2.0/verify).

    If a user wants to use a custom non-https URL or URLs, they can still do that by passing api_urls argument with custom non-https URLs to the constructor.

  • Replace CA_CERTS_BUNDLE_PATH module level variable with a ca_certs_bundle_path argument which can be passed to the Yubico class constructor.

  • Update requests dependency from 1.2 to 2.2.

1.8.0 - 2013-11-09

  • Modify verify_multi method to throw if otp_list argument contains less than two items

  • Modify max_time_window argument in the verify_multi method to be in seconds (#19)

  • Modify verify_multi method to throw if delta between the first and last OTP timestamp is smaller than zero

  • Allow user to pass api_urls argument to the Yubico class constructor. This argument can contain a list of API urls which are used to validate the token. https://github.com/Kami/python-yubico-client/pull/18

  • Depend on newer version (1.2.3) of the requests library.

  • Update code and tests so they also work under Python 3.3

1.7.0 - 2013-04-06

  • Change PyPi package name from yubico to yubico-client.

    This was done to prevent naming collisions and make creation of distribution specific packages (e.g. debian packages) easier.

1.6.2 - 2013-04-02

  • If there are multiple interpretations for a given OTP, first try to find the one which matches the input OTP. If the one is found, use the input OTP, otherwise use random interpretation. - https://github.com/Kami/python-yubico-client/issues/14
