0.8.0 (2026-09-05)

• Relax the tldextract pin from ==2.2.2 to >=5.3 (#32). The pinned version cached the public suffix list inside its own installed package directory and refreshed it with an unguarded check-then-act, so any consumer running more than one process could race and lose data. Upstream moved the cache out of the package directory in 3.1.0.

• Drop support for Python 3.6 to 3.10; the minimum is now 3.11.

• Ship type annotations. The package now carries a py.typed marker, so type checkers see the annotations, and the whole codebase is checked with pyright in strict mode. Passing extractor=None explicitly is now a type error as well as the ValueError it always raised; leave the argument out to get the automatically created extractor.

• Replace CircleCI with GitHub Actions (#31). CI now runs a single just ci inside the nix shell, so a red build reproduces locally with the same command and the same tool versions.

• Replace the Makefile with a justfile. Every target was a .PHONY command alias, which is a command runner’s job rather than make’s.

• The test suite now fails below 100% statement and branch coverage (#27).

• Fix the docs build, and point urls at openwpm/domain_utils. Install instructions use the domain-utils project name (#30).

• Publish to PyPI from a version tag using trusted publishing.

• Fix url parsing on modern CPython. urlparse no longer refuses to read host:port as a scheme, which meant localhost:8000 and example.com:8080 lost their port, and 127.0.0.1:8080/a?b=1 lost its host entirely.

• Fix scheme_default=None, which raised AttributeError on Python 3.11 to 3.13 because urlparse gained WHATWG scheme stripping.

• stem_url now returns the url exactly as it was passed in when return_unparsed is set and the scheme is not parsed, rather than an internally rewritten form.

• stem_url no longer appends a stray trailing slash to a scheme-less url that already has a path, e.g. 10.0.0.1:80/a/b.html. A scheme-less bare host, e.g. example.com, still gets one.

0.7.1 (2020-04-10)

Fix building on readthedocs.

0.7.0 (2020-04-10)

Thanks to new contributor @yabirgb for two PRs (#20 and #25) in this release.

API changes: #26 renamed get_stripped_url to stem_url, and get_ps_plus_1 to get_etld1. Old method names will continue to work though. #22 updated keyword arguments to get_stripped_url - default behavior is basically the same.

• API changes (#26 and #22)

• Support parsing ws/wss urls (#22)

• Add get_port method (#25)

• Add get_scheme method (#20)

• Correct license declaration in setup.py (#24)

0.6.0 (2020-04-06)

• Use tldextract for parsing domains (#12)

• Use numpy style docstrings

• Support case of no scheme and port in URL (#13)

0.5.0 (2020-04-03)

• Remove support for python 3.5

• Handle more cases in get_stripped_url and change default behavior:

  • handle a lack of scheme

  • boolean flag to return or not non http urls - default is to return them which is a change of behavior as previously they would not return

  • Use netloc by default instead of hostname with a boolean flag to use hostname.

0.4.0 (2020-03-25)

• Remove py27 support

0.3.0 (2020-03-25)

0.2.0 (2020-03-24)

• Extracted from https://github.com/mozilla/openwpm-utils/blob/master/openwpm_utils/domain.py

• Removed python 2 support and dependencies

• Removed broken get_stripped_urls function

• First release on PyPI.
