bpo-33604: Raise TypeError on missing hmac arg.#16805
Merged
Merged
Conversation
Also updates the documentation to clarify the situation surrounding the digestmod parameter that is required despite its position in the argument list as of 3.8.0 as well as removing old python2 era references to "binary strings". We indavertently had this raise ValueError in 3.8.0 for the missing arg. This is not considered an API change as no reasonable code would be catching this missing argument error in order to handle it.

Does changing exception type between 3.8.0 and 3.8.1 needs a versionchanged directive note in doc or is NEWS entry sufficient for these cases? |

I'm not adding a versionchanged because the exception type when an argument was missing doesn't really count as a meaningful logic part of the API. Nobody would be likely to ever call this, looking for that exception, and doing something else. arguments can be made in favor of both TypeError and ValueError, but TypeError is a bit more consistent with the intent so moving it to that seems better. |

Also updates the documentation to clarify the situation surrounding the digestmod parameter that is required despite its position in the argument list as of 3.8.0 as well as removing old python2 era references to "binary strings". We indavertently had this raise ValueError in 3.8.0 for the missing arg. This is not considered an API change as no reasonable code would be catching this missing argument error in order to handle it. (cherry picked from commit f33c57d) Co-authored-by: Gregory P.
