1.0.0 — first release
First public release of the Populi API2 client extracted from an in-house Django application.
Built around the ways Populi fails open: a request the server cannot read is answered with HTTP 200 and quietly ignored, so most of the defensive code here exists because a silent failure got to production first.
Highlights
- Bearer-auth transport with error-object detection regardless of HTTP status
- Paged reads that verify the page echo and refuse a short read
PopuliFilter, which refuses an empty filter or group — both of which Populi ignores, and an ignored filter matches everyone- Per-caller rate pacing against a budget re-read per request, so a long run widens itself at the Pacific boundary
- Framework-free: importing the client loads zero Django modules
See the CHANGELOG for the undocumented behaviours this client works around, each of which was a defect before it was a paragraph.
