 # Changelog
 
+## v1.9.0
+
+- Feature #44: "getCookieString" method is exposed
+- Feature #43: added support for content type "application/javascript" on iOS (thanks wh33ler)
+- Feature #46: "setCookie" allows adding custom cookies
+
+## v1.8.1
+
+- Fixed #27: "uploadFile" method doesn't return data object on iOS (thanks Faisalali23 and laiyinjie)
+- Fixed #40: generic error codes are different on Android and iOS
+
+## v1.8.0
+
+- Feature #33: response object contains response url
+
+## v1.7.1
+
+- Fixed #36: setting basic authentication not working correctly (thanks jkfb)
+- Fixed #35: Android headers are not normalized (not returned in lowercase)
+- Fixed #26: JSON request with array data is not working on Android (JSON error)
+
+## v1.7.0
+
+- Feature #24: "setHeader" allows configuring headers for specified host
+
+## v1.6.2
+
+- Change #29: removed "validateDomainName" (see info notice)
+- Fixed #31: request fails throwing error on erroneous cookies
+- Fixed #28: added support for content type "application/hal+json" on iOS (thanks ryandegruyter)
+
+#### Important information
+We've decided to remove the `validateDomainName()` method, because people were complaining that `acceptAllCerts(true)` is not behaving as expected. And also it's not a good idea to disable domain name validation while using valid certs, because it pretends having a secure connection, but it isn't.
+
+You should either use valid certs with domain name validation enabled (safe for production use) or accept any certs without domain name validation (only for private dev environments). I strongly discourage using fake certs in public networks.
+
+Therefore we are disabling domain name validation automatically, when you set `acceptAllCerts(true)`. So if you were using `validateDomainName()` function, you need to remove this function call for v1.6.2+.
+
+## v1.6.1
+
+- Fixed #23: PATCH method broken on android
+
+## v1.6.0
+
+- Feature #18: implemented PATCH method (thanks akhatri for android implementation)
+- Feature #21: added redirection control (thanks to notsyncing and kesozjura)
+- Fixed #16: cordova tries to run build script during plugin install
+
+## v1.5.10
+
+- Fixed #10: fix gzip decompression when request header accepts gzip compression (thanks to DayBr3ak)
+- Fixed #13: fix angular integration for `setDataSerializer` (thanks to RangerRick)
+- Added some missing documentation (thanks to RangerRick)
+
+## v1.5.9
+
+- Fixed case-sensitive folder name of Android source files
+
+## v1.5.8
+
+- Use the same error codes if a request timed out
+
 ## v1.5.7
 
 - Fixed a bug in cookie handling (cookies containing an "Expires" string)

+# Contributing to Advanced HTTP Plugin
+
+We'd love for you to contribute to our source code and to make Advanced HTTP even better than it is
+today! Here are the guidelines we'd like you to follow:
+
+ - [Issues and Bugs](#issue)
+ - [Feature Requests](#feature)
+ - [Submission Guidelines](#submit)
+
+## <a name="issue"></a> Found an Issue?
+
+If you find a bug in the source code or a mistake in the documentation, you can help us by
+submitting an issue to our [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/silkimen/cordova-plugin-advanced-http/issues).
+Even better you can submit a Pull Request with a fix.
+
+## <a name="feature"></a> Want a Feature?
+
+You can request a new feature by submitting an issue to our
+[GitHub Repository](https://github.com/silkimen/cordova-plugin-advanced-http/issues).
+If you would like to implement a new feature then consider what kind of change it is:
+
+* **Major Changes** that you wish to contribute to the project should be discussed first so that we
+  can better coordinate our efforts, prevent duplication of work, and help you to craft the change
+  so that it is successfully accepted into the project. Please submit an issue to our GitHub Repository
+  for discussion.
+* **Small Changes** can be crafted and submitted to the GitHub Repository as a Pull Request.
+
+## <a name="submit"></a> Submission Guidelines
+
+### Submitting an Issue
+Before you submit your issue search the archive, maybe your question was already answered.
+
+If your issue appears to be a bug, and hasn't been reported, open a new issue. Help us to maximize
+the effort we can spend fixing issues and adding new features, by not reporting duplicate issues.
+Providing the following information will increase the chances of your issue being dealt with
+quickly:
+
+* **Overview of the Issue** - if an error is being thrown a non-minified stack trace helps
+* **Motivation for or Use Case** - explain why this is a bug for you
+* **Advanced HTTP Version(s)** - is it a regression?
+* **Operating System** - is this a problem with all supported OS or only specific ones?
+* **Related Issues** - has a similar issue been reported before?
+* **Suggest a Fix** - if you can't fix the bug yourself, perhaps you can point to what might be
+  causing the problem (line of code or commit)
+
+**If you get help, help others. Good karma rulez!**
+
+### Submitting a Pull Request
+Before you submit your pull request consider the following guidelines:
+
+* Search [GitHub](https://github.com/silkimen/cordova-plugin-advanced-http/pulls) for an open or
+  closed Pull Request that relates to your submission. You don't want to duplicate effort.
+* Make your changes in a new git branch:
+
+    ```shell
+    git checkout -b my-fix-branch master
+    ```
+* Create your patch
+* Commit your changes using a descriptive commit message
+* Push your branch to GitHub:
+
+    ```shell
+    git push origin my-fix-branch
+    ```
+
+In GitHub, send a pull request to `cordova-plugin-advanced-http:master`.
+If we suggest changes or the [CI build fails](#cibuild), then:
+
+* Make the required updates.
+* Commit your changes to your branch (e.g. `my-fix-branch`).
+* Push the changes to your GitHub repository (this will update your Pull Request).
+
+That's it! Thank you for your contribution!
+
+### <a name="cibuild"></a> Pull Request Feedback
+You can always check the results of the latest CI builds on
+[Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org/silkimen/cordova-plugin-advanced-http/).
+You can use this information to inspect failing tests in your PR.

 You can then inject the cordovaHTTP service into your controllers.  The functions can then be used identically to the examples shown below except that instead of accepting success and failure callback functions, each function returns a promise.  For more information on promises in AngularJS read the [AngularJS docs](http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$q).  For more info on promises in general check out this article on [html5rocks](http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/es6/promises/).

 ### post<a name="post"></a>
 Execute a POST request.  Takes a URL, data, and headers.
 
 #### success
-The success function receives a response object with 3 properties: status, data, and headers.  Status is the HTTP response code. Data is the response from the server as a string. Headers is an object with the headers.  Here's a quick example:
+The success function receives a response object with 3 properties: status, data, and headers.  **status** is the HTTP response code as numeric value. **data** is the response from the server as a string. **headers** is an object with the headers. The keys of the returned object are the header names and the values are the respective header values. All header names are lowercase.
 
-    {
-        status: 200,
-        data: "{'id': 12, 'message': 'test'}",
-        headers: {
-            "Content-Length": "247"

+  data: '{"id": 12, "message": "test"}',
+  headers: {

+}
+```
 
 Most apis will return JSON meaning you'll want to parse the data like in the example below:

-    }, { Authorization: "OAuth2: token" }, function(response) {

-        } catch(e) {
-            console.error("JSON parsing error");
-        }
-    }, function(response) {
-        // prints 403
-        console.log(response.status);
-
-        //prints Permission denied
-        console.log(response.error);
-    });
