The older + interface can still be used until Cowboy 1.0. + + The body_qs/2, part/2 and part_body/2 also accept this list of + options, and pass it down to the body/2 call. The default options + vary between the different functions. + + The return value of the function has changed. Older code should work + without modification but you should definitely still test it. + + All functions appropriately decode transfer and content encoding. + There is no need to have a special case for that anymore. + + The body/1,2 function supports streaming, with the same interface + as the part_body/1,2 function. + + * Deprecate the cowboy_req:init_stream, stream_body and skip_body functions + + They will be removed in Cowboy 1.0. + + * Add support for multipart + + The cowboy_req:part/1,2 and cowboy_req:part_body/1,2 can be + used for reading a multipart body. + + Documentation has been added. + + The old undocumented multipart functions were removed. + + * Allow the onresponse hook to override only status and headers + + Previously it wasn't possible to override them without also + overriding the body.
