Streaming Response in Chunks

[chrisbll971]

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to send a response in chunks back to the caller in a stream?

For example:

1. Send back a part of the file (for example, some metadata about the file)
2. Wait a few seconds
3. Send back the rest of the file

Thanks

Yes, you can. The bodies in hyper support streaming. You can wrap an existing impl Stream, or use a channel, or some other mechanism.
