Known issues

breakingAPI version 81.x drops support for Python <3.10. Upgrade Python or pin to alacorder<81.

fix

Ensure Python 3.10+ is used, or install alacorder==80.x.x if stuck on older Python.

affects: >=81.0.0

deprecatedThe `Alacorder` class was removed in version 81. Use module-level functions instead.

fix

Replace `from alacorder import Alacorder; a = Alacorder()` with `import alacorder; alacorder.get_case(...)`.

affects: >=81.0.0

gotchaRate limiting: too many requests in quick succession may trigger IP blocks from Alacourt.com.

fix

Insert delays (e.g., time.sleep(1)) between requests, especially for bulk processing.

affects: all
