Any difference between url and url_obj in URL

[Kilerd]

just like the demo in official website http://aiohttp.readthedocs.io/en/stable/client.html

async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
    async with session.get('https://api.github.com/events') as resp:
        print(resp.status)
        print(await resp.text())

while the types of resp.url and resp.url_obj are aiohttp.URL instance
it means that assert does not work like this:

assert resp.url == 'http://httpbin.org/get?key2=value2&key1=value1'

in my code while pytesting.
it raise like that:

AssertionError: assert URL('http://127.0.0.1:40404/123') == 'http://127.0.0.1:40404/123'

but, actually, the str of URL is the same as http://127.0.0.1:40404/123

is that any feature instead of? or is it a bug?

[asvetlov]

In aiohttp 1.1+ ,url pointed to str but .url_obj to URL.
Starting from aiohtp 2.0 they are aliases, .url_obj is deprecated.

Docs should be updated, most likely in the way like this: assert str(resp.url) == 'htpp://....'
