intessa.conneg.streaming — Utilities for streaming HTTP requests

class intessa.conneg.streaming.StreamingBody(body, length=None)

A simple class to implement streaming request bodies with lengths.

>>> from cStringIO import StringIO
>>> sb = StreamingBody(StringIO("ABCD"), 4)
>>> sb  
<StreamingBody(<cStringIO.StringI object at 0x...>, 4)>
>>> len(sb)
4

Features automatic length-checking on files:

>>> sb = StreamingBody(open('file.txt'))  
>>> sb  
<StreamingBody(<open file 'file.txt', mode 'r' at 0x...>, 111)>
