Changelog

7.2.0

-------------------

**Features:**

- Added ``include_encodings`` and ``exclude_encodings`` parameters to
:func:`~chardet.detect`, :func:`~chardet.detect_all`, and
:class:`~chardet.UniversalDetector` — restrict or exclude specific
encodings from the candidate set, with corresponding
``-i``/``--include-encodings`` and ``-x``/``--exclude-encodings``
CLI flags
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_,
`343 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/pull/343>`_)
- Added ``no_match_encoding`` (default ``"cp1252"``) and
``empty_input_encoding`` (default ``"utf-8"``) parameters — control
which encoding is returned when no candidate survives the pipeline or
the input is empty, with corresponding CLI flags
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_,
`343 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/pull/343>`_)
- Added ``-l``/``--language`` flag to ``chardetect`` CLI — shows the
detected language (ISO 639-1 code and English name) alongside the encoding
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_,
`342 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/pull/342>`_)

7.1.0

-------------------

**Features:**

- Added PEP 263 encoding declaration detection — `` -*- coding: ... -*-``
and `` coding=...`` declarations on lines 1–2 of Python source files are
now recognized with confidence 0.95
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_,
`249 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/issues/249>`_)
- Added ``chardet.universaldetector`` backward-compatibility stub so that
``from chardet.universaldetector import UniversalDetector`` works with a
deprecation warning
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_,
`341 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/issues/341>`_)

**Fixes:**

- Fixed false UTF-7 detection of ASCII text containing ``++`` or ``+word``
patterns
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_,
`332 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/issues/332>`_,
`335 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/pull/335>`_)
- Fixed 0.5s startup cost on first ``detect()`` call — model norms are now
computed during loading instead of lazily iterating 21M entries
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_,
`333 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/issues/333>`_,
`336 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/pull/336>`_)
- Fixed undocumented encoding name changes between chardet 5.x and 7.0 —
``detect()`` now returns chardet 5.x-compatible names by default
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_,
`338 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/pull/338>`_)
- Improved ISO-2022-JP family detection — recognizes ESC sequences for
ISO-2022-JP-2004 (JIS X 0213) and ISO-2022-JP-EXT (JIS X 0201 Kana)
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Fixed silent truncation of corrupt model data (``iter_unpack`` yielded
fewer tuples instead of raising)
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Fixed incorrect date in LICENSE
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)

**Performance:**

- 5.5x faster first-detect time (~0.42s → ~0.075s) by computing model
norms as a side-product of ``load_models()``
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- ~40% faster model parsing via ``struct.iter_unpack`` for bulk entry
extraction (eliminates ~305K individual ``unpack`` calls)
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)

**New API parameters:**

- Added ``compat_names`` parameter (default ``True``) to
:func:`~chardet.detect`, :func:`~chardet.detect_all`, and
:class:`~chardet.UniversalDetector` — set to ``False`` to get raw Python
codec names instead of chardet 5.x/6.x compatible display names
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Added ``prefer_superset`` parameter (default ``False``) — remaps legacy
ISO/subset encodings to their modern Windows/CP superset equivalents
(e.g., ASCII → Windows-1252, ISO-8859-1 → Windows-1252).
**This will default to ``True`` in the next major version (8.0).**
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Deprecated ``should_rename_legacy`` in favor of ``prefer_superset`` —
a deprecation warning is emitted when used
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)

**Improvements:**

- Switched internal canonical encoding names to Python codec names
(e.g., ``"utf-8"`` instead of ``"UTF-8"``), with ``compat_names``
controlling the public output format.  See :doc:`usage` for the full
mapping table.
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Added ``lookup_encoding()`` to ``registry`` for case-insensitive
resolution of arbitrary encoding name input to canonical names
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Achieved 100% line coverage across all source modules (+31 tests)
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Updated benchmark numbers: 98.2% encoding accuracy, 95.2% language
accuracy on 2,510 test files
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Pinned test-data cloning to chardet release version tags for
reproducible builds
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)

7.0.1

-------------------

**Fixes:**

- Fixed false UTF-7 detection of SHA-1 git hashes
(`Alex Rembish <https://github.com/rembish>`_,
`324 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/pull/324>`_)
- Fixed ``_SINGLE_LANG_MAP`` missing aliases for single-language encoding
lookup (e.g., ``big5`` → ``big5hkscs``)
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Fixed PyPy ``TypeError`` in UTF-7 codec handling
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)

**Improvements:**

- Retrained bigram models — 24 previously failing test cases now pass
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)
- Updated language equivalences for mutual intelligibility (Slovak/Czech,
East Slavic + Bulgarian, Malay/Indonesian, Scandinavian languages)
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_)

7.0.0

-------------------

Ground-up, MIT-licensed rewrite of chardet
(`Dan Blanchard <https://github.com/dan-blanchard>`_,
`322 <https://github.com/chardet/chardet/pull/322>`_). Same package name,
same public API — drop-in replacement for chardet 5.x/6.x.

**Highlights:**

- **MIT license** (previous versions were LGPL)
- **96.8% accuracy** on 2,179 test files (+2.3pp vs chardet 6.0.0,
+7.7pp vs charset-normalizer)
- **41x faster** than chardet 6.0.0 with mypyc (**28x** pure Python),
**7.5x faster** than charset-normalizer
- **Language detection** for every result (90.5% accuracy across 49
languages)
- **99 encodings** across six eras (MODERN_WEB, LEGACY_ISO, LEGACY_MAC,
LEGACY_REGIONAL, DOS, MAINFRAME)
- **12-stage detection pipeline** — BOM, UTF-16/32 patterns, escape
sequences, binary detection, markup charset, ASCII, UTF-8 validation,
byte validity, CJK gating, structural probing, statistical scoring,
post-processing
- **Bigram frequency models** trained on CulturaX multilingual corpus
data for all supported language/encoding pairs
- **Optional mypyc compilation** — 1.49x additional speedup on CPython
- **Thread-safe** ``detect()`` and ``detect_all()`` with no measurable
overhead; scales on free-threaded Python 3.13t+
- **Negligible import memory** (96 B)
- **Zero runtime dependencies**
