Release/v0.7.8 (#1662)

Browse Source 
* Fix: Use correct URL variable for raw HTML extraction (#1116)

- Prevents full HTML content from being passed as URL to extraction strategies
- Added unit tests to verify raw HTML and regular URL processing

Fix: Wrong URL variable used for extraction of raw html

* Fix #1181: Preserve whitespace in code blocks during HTML scraping

  The remove_empty_elements_fast() method was removing whitespace-only
  span elements inside <pre> and <code> tags, causing import statements
  like "import torch" to become "importtorch". Now skips elements inside
  code blocks where whitespace is significant.

* Refactor Pydantic model configuration to use ConfigDict for arbitrary types

* Fix EmbeddingStrategy: Uncomment response handling for the variations and clean up mock data. ref #1621

* Fix: permission issues with .cache/url_seeder and other runtime cache dirs. ref #1638

* fix: ensure BrowserConfig.to_dict serializes proxy_config

* feat: make LLM backoff configurable end-to-end

- extend LLMConfig with backoff delay/attempt/factor fields and thread them
  through LLMExtractionStrategy, LLMContentFilter, table extraction, and
  Docker API handlers
- expose the backoff parameter knobs on perform_completion_with_backoff/aperform_completion_with_backoff
  and document them in the md_v2 guides

* reproduced AttributeError from #1642

* pass timeout parameter to docker client request

* added missing deep crawling objects to init

* generalized query in ContentRelevanceFilter to be a str or list

* import modules from enhanceable deserialization

* parameterized tests

* Fix: capture current page URL to reflect JavaScript navigation and add test for delayed redirects. ref #1268

* refactor: replace PyPDF2 with pypdf across the codebase. ref #1412

* announcement: add application form for cloud API closed beta

* Release v0.7.8: Stability & Bug Fix Release

- Updated version to 0.7.8
- Introduced focused stability release addressing 11 community-reported bugs.
- Key fixes include Docker API improvements, LLM extraction enhancements, URL handling corrections, and dependency updates.
- Added detailed release notes for v0.7.8 in the blog and created a dedicated verification script to ensure all fixes are functioning as intended.
- Updated documentation to reflect recent changes and improvements.

* docs: add section for Crawl4AI Cloud API closed beta with application link

* fix: add disk cleanup step to Docker workflow

<summary><strong>Version 0.7.8 Release Highlights - Stability & Bug Fix Release</strong></summary>
This release focuses on stability with 11 bug fixes addressing issues reported by the community. No new features, but significant improvements to reliability.
- **🐳 Docker API Fixes**:
- Fixed `ContentRelevanceFilter` deserialization in deep crawl requests (#1642)
- Fixed `ProxyConfig` JSON serialization in `BrowserConfig.to_dict()` (#1629)
- Fixed `.cache` folder permissions in Docker image (#1638)
- **🤖 LLM Extraction Improvements**:
- Configurable rate limiter backoff with new `LLMConfig` parameters (#1269):
```python
from crawl4ai import LLMConfig
config = LLMConfig(
provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini",
backoff_base_delay=5, # Wait 5s on first retry
backoff_max_attempts=5, # Try up to 5 times
backoff_exponential_factor=3 # Multiply delay by 3 each attempt
)
```
- HTML input format support for `LLMExtractionStrategy` (#1178):
```python
from crawl4ai import LLMExtractionStrategy
strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
llm_config=config,
instruction="Extract table data",
input_format="html" # Now supports: "html", "markdown", "fit_markdown"
)
```
- Fixed raw HTML URL variable - extraction strategies now receive `"Raw HTML"` instead of HTML blob (#1116)
- **🔗 URL Handling**:
- Fixed relative URL resolution after JavaScript redirects (#1268)
- Fixed import statement formatting in extracted code (#1181)
- **📦 Dependency Updates**:
- Replaced deprecated PyPDF2 with pypdf (#1412)
- Pydantic v2 ConfigDict compatibility - no more deprecation warnings (#678)
- **🧠 AdaptiveCrawler**:
- Fixed query expansion to actually use LLM instead of hardcoded mock data (#1621)

# Crawl4AI v0.7.8: Stability & Bug Fix Release
*December 2025*
---
I'm releasing Crawl4AI v0.7.8—a focused stability release that addresses 11 bugs reported by the community. While there are no new features in this release, these fixes resolve important issues affecting Docker deployments, LLM extraction, URL handling, and dependency compatibility.
## What's Fixed at a Glance
- **Docker API**: Fixed ContentRelevanceFilter deserialization, ProxyConfig serialization, and cache folder permissions
- **LLM Extraction**: Configurable rate limiter backoff, HTML input format support, and proper URL handling for raw HTML
- **URL Handling**: Correct relative URL resolution after JavaScript redirects
- **Dependencies**: Replaced deprecated PyPDF2 with pypdf, Pydantic v2 ConfigDict compatibility
- **AdaptiveCrawler**: Fixed query expansion to actually use LLM instead of hardcoded mock data
## Bug Fixes
### Docker & API Fixes
#### ContentRelevanceFilter Deserialization (#1642)
**The Problem:** When sending deep crawl requests to the Docker API with `ContentRelevanceFilter`, the server failed to deserialize the filter, causing requests to fail.
**The Fix:** I added `ContentRelevanceFilter` to the public exports and enhanced the deserialization logic with dynamic imports.
```python
# This now works correctly in Docker API
import httpx
request = {
"urls": ["https://docs.example.com"],
"crawler_config": {
"deep_crawl_strategy": {
"type": "BFSDeepCrawlStrategy",
"max_depth": 2,
"filter_chain": [
{
"type": "ContentRelevanceFilter",
"query": "API documentation",
"threshold": 0.3
}
]
}
}
}
async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
response = await client.post("http://localhost:11235/crawl", json=request)
# Previously failed, now works!
```
#### ProxyConfig JSON Serialization (#1629)
**The Problem:** `BrowserConfig.to_dict()` failed when `proxy_config` was set because `ProxyConfig` wasn't being serialized to a dictionary.
**The Fix:** `ProxyConfig.to_dict()` is now called during serialization.
```python
from crawl4ai import BrowserConfig
from crawl4ai.async_configs import ProxyConfig
proxy = ProxyConfig(
server="http://proxy.example.com:8080",
username="user",
password="pass"
)
config = BrowserConfig(headless=True, proxy_config=proxy)
# Previously raised TypeError, now works
config_dict = config.to_dict()
json.dumps(config_dict) # Valid JSON
```
#### Docker Cache Folder Permissions (#1638)
**The Problem:** The `.cache` folder in the Docker image had incorrect permissions, causing crawling to fail when caching was enabled.
**The Fix:** Corrected ownership and permissions during image build.
```bash
# Cache now works correctly in Docker
docker run -d -p 11235:11235 \
--shm-size=1g \
-v ./my-cache:/app/.cache \
unclecode/crawl4ai:0.7.8
```
---
### LLM & Extraction Fixes
#### Configurable Rate Limiter Backoff (#1269)
**The Problem:** The LLM rate limiting backoff parameters were hardcoded, making it impossible to adjust retry behavior for different API rate limits.
**The Fix:** `LLMConfig` now accepts three new parameters for complete control over retry behavior.
```python
from crawl4ai import LLMConfig
# Default behavior (unchanged)
default_config = LLMConfig(provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini")
# backoff_base_delay=2, backoff_max_attempts=3, backoff_exponential_factor=2
# Custom configuration for APIs with strict rate limits
custom_config = LLMConfig(
provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini",
backoff_base_delay=5, # Wait 5 seconds on first retry
backoff_max_attempts=5, # Try up to 5 times
backoff_exponential_factor=3 # Multiply delay by 3 each attempt
)
# Retry sequence: 5s -> 15s -> 45s -> 135s -> 405s
```
#### LLM Strategy HTML Input Support (#1178)
**The Problem:** `LLMExtractionStrategy` always sent markdown to the LLM, but some extraction tasks work better with HTML structure preserved.
**The Fix:** Added `input_format` parameter supporting `"markdown"`, `"html"`, `"fit_markdown"`, `"cleaned_html"`, and `"fit_html"`.
```python
from crawl4ai import LLMExtractionStrategy, LLMConfig
# Default: markdown input (unchanged)
markdown_strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
llm_config=LLMConfig(provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini"),
instruction="Extract product information"
)
# NEW: HTML input - preserves table/list structure
html_strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
llm_config=LLMConfig(provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini"),
instruction="Extract the data table preserving structure",
input_format="html"
)
# NEW: Filtered markdown - only relevant content
fit_strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
llm_config=LLMConfig(provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini"),
instruction="Summarize the main content",
input_format="fit_markdown"
)
```
#### Raw HTML URL Variable (#1116)
**The Problem:** When using `url="raw:<html>..."`, the entire HTML content was being passed to extraction strategies as the URL parameter, polluting LLM prompts.
**The Fix:** The URL is now correctly set to `"Raw HTML"` for raw HTML inputs.
```python
from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CrawlerRunConfig
html = "<html><body><h1>Test</h1></body></html>"
async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
result = await crawler.arun(
url=f"raw:{html}",
config=CrawlerRunConfig(extraction_strategy=my_strategy)
)
# extraction_strategy receives url="Raw HTML" instead of the HTML blob
```
---
### URL Handling Fix
#### Relative URLs After Redirects (#1268)
**The Problem:** When JavaScript caused a page redirect, relative links were resolved against the original URL instead of the final URL.
**The Fix:** `redirected_url` now captures the actual page URL after all JavaScript execution completes.
```python
from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
# Page at /old-page redirects via JS to /new-page
result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com/old-page")
# BEFORE: redirected_url = "https://example.com/old-page"
# AFTER: redirected_url = "https://example.com/new-page"
# Links are now correctly resolved against the final URL
for link in result.links['internal']:
print(link['href']) # Relative links resolved correctly
```
---
### Dependency & Compatibility Fixes
#### PyPDF2 Replaced with pypdf (#1412)
**The Problem:** PyPDF2 was deprecated in 2022 and is no longer maintained.
**The Fix:** Replaced with the actively maintained `pypdf` library.
```python
# Installation (unchanged)
pip install crawl4ai[pdf]
# The PDF processor now uses pypdf internally
# No code changes required - API remains the same
```
#### Pydantic v2 ConfigDict Compatibility (#678)
**The Problem:** Using the deprecated `class Config` syntax caused deprecation warnings with Pydantic v2.
**The Fix:** Migrated to `model_config = ConfigDict(...)` syntax.
```python
# No more deprecation warnings when importing crawl4ai models
from crawl4ai.models import CrawlResult
from crawl4ai import CrawlerRunConfig, BrowserConfig
# All models are now Pydantic v2 compatible
```
---
### AdaptiveCrawler Fix
#### Query Expansion Using LLM (#1621)
**The Problem:** The `EmbeddingStrategy` in AdaptiveCrawler had commented-out LLM code and was using hardcoded mock query variations instead.
**The Fix:** Uncommented and activated the LLM call for actual query expansion.
```python
# AdaptiveCrawler query expansion now actually uses the LLM
# Instead of hardcoded variations like:
# variations = {'queries': ['what are the best vegetables...']}
# The LLM generates relevant query variations based on your actual query
```
---
### Code Formatting Fix
#### Import Statement Formatting (#1181)
**The Problem:** When extracting code from web pages, import statements were sometimes concatenated without proper line separation.
**The Fix:** Import statements now maintain proper newline separation.
```python
# BEFORE: "import osimport sysfrom pathlib import Path"
# AFTER:
# import os
# import sys
# from pathlib import Path
```
---
## Breaking Changes
**None!** This release is fully backward compatible.
- All existing code continues to work without modification
- New parameters have sensible defaults matching previous behavior
- No API changes to existing functionality
---
## Upgrade Instructions
### Python Package
```bash
pip install --upgrade crawl4ai
# or
pip install crawl4ai==0.7.8
```
### Docker
```bash
# Pull the latest version
docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:0.7.8

# Crawl4AI v0.7.8: Stability & Bug Fix Release
*December 2025*
---
I'm releasing Crawl4AI v0.7.8—a focused stability release that addresses 11 bugs reported by the community. While there are no new features in this release, these fixes resolve important issues affecting Docker deployments, LLM extraction, URL handling, and dependency compatibility.
## What's Fixed at a Glance
- **Docker API**: Fixed ContentRelevanceFilter deserialization, ProxyConfig serialization, and cache folder permissions
- **LLM Extraction**: Configurable rate limiter backoff, HTML input format support, and proper URL handling for raw HTML
- **URL Handling**: Correct relative URL resolution after JavaScript redirects
- **Dependencies**: Replaced deprecated PyPDF2 with pypdf, Pydantic v2 ConfigDict compatibility
- **AdaptiveCrawler**: Fixed query expansion to actually use LLM instead of hardcoded mock data
## Bug Fixes
### Docker & API Fixes
#### ContentRelevanceFilter Deserialization (#1642)
**The Problem:** When sending deep crawl requests to the Docker API with `ContentRelevanceFilter`, the server failed to deserialize the filter, causing requests to fail.
**The Fix:** I added `ContentRelevanceFilter` to the public exports and enhanced the deserialization logic with dynamic imports.
```python
# This now works correctly in Docker API
import httpx
request = {
"urls": ["https://docs.example.com"],
"crawler_config": {
"deep_crawl_strategy": {
"type": "BFSDeepCrawlStrategy",
"max_depth": 2,
"filter_chain": [
{
"type": "ContentRelevanceFilter",
"query": "API documentation",
"threshold": 0.3
}
]
}
}
}
async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
response = await client.post("http://localhost:11235/crawl", json=request)
# Previously failed, now works!
```
#### ProxyConfig JSON Serialization (#1629)
**The Problem:** `BrowserConfig.to_dict()` failed when `proxy_config` was set because `ProxyConfig` wasn't being serialized to a dictionary.
**The Fix:** `ProxyConfig.to_dict()` is now called during serialization.
```python
from crawl4ai import BrowserConfig
from crawl4ai.async_configs import ProxyConfig
proxy = ProxyConfig(
server="http://proxy.example.com:8080",
username="user",
password="pass"
)
config = BrowserConfig(headless=True, proxy_config=proxy)
# Previously raised TypeError, now works
config_dict = config.to_dict()
json.dumps(config_dict) # Valid JSON
```
#### Docker Cache Folder Permissions (#1638)
**The Problem:** The `.cache` folder in the Docker image had incorrect permissions, causing crawling to fail when caching was enabled.
**The Fix:** Corrected ownership and permissions during image build.
```bash
# Cache now works correctly in Docker
docker run -d -p 11235:11235 \
--shm-size=1g \
-v ./my-cache:/app/.cache \
unclecode/crawl4ai:0.7.8
```
---
### LLM & Extraction Fixes
#### Configurable Rate Limiter Backoff (#1269)
**The Problem:** The LLM rate limiting backoff parameters were hardcoded, making it impossible to adjust retry behavior for different API rate limits.
**The Fix:** `LLMConfig` now accepts three new parameters for complete control over retry behavior.
```python
from crawl4ai import LLMConfig
# Default behavior (unchanged)
default_config = LLMConfig(provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini")
# backoff_base_delay=2, backoff_max_attempts=3, backoff_exponential_factor=2
# Custom configuration for APIs with strict rate limits
custom_config = LLMConfig(
provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini",
backoff_base_delay=5, # Wait 5 seconds on first retry
backoff_max_attempts=5, # Try up to 5 times
backoff_exponential_factor=3 # Multiply delay by 3 each attempt
)
# Retry sequence: 5s -> 15s -> 45s -> 135s -> 405s
```
#### LLM Strategy HTML Input Support (#1178)
**The Problem:** `LLMExtractionStrategy` always sent markdown to the LLM, but some extraction tasks work better with HTML structure preserved.
**The Fix:** Added `input_format` parameter supporting `"markdown"`, `"html"`, `"fit_markdown"`, `"cleaned_html"`, and `"fit_html"`.
```python
from crawl4ai import LLMExtractionStrategy, LLMConfig
# Default: markdown input (unchanged)
markdown_strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
llm_config=LLMConfig(provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini"),
instruction="Extract product information"
)
# NEW: HTML input - preserves table/list structure
html_strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
llm_config=LLMConfig(provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini"),
instruction="Extract the data table preserving structure",
input_format="html"
)
# NEW: Filtered markdown - only relevant content
fit_strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
llm_config=LLMConfig(provider="openai/gpt-4o-mini"),
instruction="Summarize the main content",
input_format="fit_markdown"
)
```
#### Raw HTML URL Variable (#1116)
**The Problem:** When using `url="raw:<html>..."`, the entire HTML content was being passed to extraction strategies as the URL parameter, polluting LLM prompts.
**The Fix:** The URL is now correctly set to `"Raw HTML"` for raw HTML inputs.
```python
from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CrawlerRunConfig
html = "<html><body><h1>Test</h1></body></html>"
async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
result = await crawler.arun(
url=f"raw:{html}",
config=CrawlerRunConfig(extraction_strategy=my_strategy)
)
# extraction_strategy receives url="Raw HTML" instead of the HTML blob
```
---
### URL Handling Fix
#### Relative URLs After Redirects (#1268)
**The Problem:** When JavaScript caused a page redirect, relative links were resolved against the original URL instead of the final URL.
**The Fix:** `redirected_url` now captures the actual page URL after all JavaScript execution completes.
```python
from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
# Page at /old-page redirects via JS to /new-page
result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com/old-page")
# BEFORE: redirected_url = "https://example.com/old-page"
# AFTER: redirected_url = "https://example.com/new-page"
# Links are now correctly resolved against the final URL
for link in result.links['internal']:
print(link['href']) # Relative links resolved correctly
```
---
### Dependency & Compatibility Fixes
#### PyPDF2 Replaced with pypdf (#1412)
**The Problem:** PyPDF2 was deprecated in 2022 and is no longer maintained.
**The Fix:** Replaced with the actively maintained `pypdf` library.
```python
# Installation (unchanged)
pip install crawl4ai[pdf]
# The PDF processor now uses pypdf internally
# No code changes required - API remains the same
```
#### Pydantic v2 ConfigDict Compatibility (#678)
**The Problem:** Using the deprecated `class Config` syntax caused deprecation warnings with Pydantic v2.
**The Fix:** Migrated to `model_config = ConfigDict(...)` syntax.
```python
# No more deprecation warnings when importing crawl4ai models
from crawl4ai.models import CrawlResult
from crawl4ai import CrawlerRunConfig, BrowserConfig
# All models are now Pydantic v2 compatible
```
---
### AdaptiveCrawler Fix
#### Query Expansion Using LLM (#1621)
**The Problem:** The `EmbeddingStrategy` in AdaptiveCrawler had commented-out LLM code and was using hardcoded mock query variations instead.
**The Fix:** Uncommented and activated the LLM call for actual query expansion.
```python
# AdaptiveCrawler query expansion now actually uses the LLM
# Instead of hardcoded variations like:
# variations = {'queries': ['what are the best vegetables...']}
# The LLM generates relevant query variations based on your actual query
```
---
### Code Formatting Fix
#### Import Statement Formatting (#1181)
**The Problem:** When extracting code from web pages, import statements were sometimes concatenated without proper line separation.
**The Fix:** Import statements now maintain proper newline separation.
```python
# BEFORE: "import osimport sysfrom pathlib import Path"
# AFTER:
# import os
# import sys
# from pathlib import Path
```
---
## Breaking Changes
**None!** This release is fully backward compatible.
- All existing code continues to work without modification
- New parameters have sensible defaults matching previous behavior
- No API changes to existing functionality
---
## Upgrade Instructions
### Python Package
```bash
pip install --upgrade crawl4ai
# or
