History

1.4.0 (2018-02-08)

  • Selector and SelectorList can’t be pickled because pickling/unpickling doesn’t work for lxml.html.HtmlElement; parsel now raises TypeError explicitly instead of allowing pickle to silently produce wrong output. This is technically backwards-incompatible if you’re using Python < 3.6.

  • Fix artifact uploads to pypi.

1.3.0 (2017-12-28)

  • Selector.remove_namespaces now removes namespace declarations;
  • Python 3.3 support is dropped;
