Release Notes
chardet/chardet
v4.0.0
Major Changes
This release is multiple years in the making, and provides some quality of life improvements to chardet. The primary user-facing changes are:
- Single-byte charset probers now use nested dictionaries under the hood, so they are usually a little faster than before. (See #121 for details)
- The
CharsetGroupProberclass now properly short-circuits when one of the probers in the group is considered a definite match. This lead to a substantial speedup. - There is now a
chardet.detect_allfunction that returns a list of possible encodings for the input with associated confidences. - We have dropped support for Python 2.6, 3.4, and 3.5 as they are all past end-of-life.
The changes in this release have also laid the groundwork for retraining the models to make them more accurate, and to support some more encodings/languages (see #99 for progress). This is our main focus for chardet 5.0 (beyond dropping Python 2 support).
