Logging should be

• easy to enable and disable
• show relevant request details

Bonus points if an external framework can be used

an Image resource should be able to follow the same request pipeline. The returned result should be a Result<UIImage, HTTPResponseError>

Currently, there is no check that a resource is requested agains the correct host. That is, for example, a Facebook resource could to requested against a Github host. This is completely invalid, hence the HostedResource Protocol to tie resources to hosts. However, current attempts at adding something like R: RequestedResource & HostedResource where R.HostedType == Self in the HTTPHostProtocol doesn't compile nor when I can get it to compile, the resource does not get checked at compile time.

There is no sample code which would show-case the usage of the library. It could be in the same repo or in some other one (with a link in this repo's README.md)

Currently, only Argo is supported with some default wrapper functions to help the JSON decoding process. There should be support for other Libraries such as those listed here:

To be able to track the progress of a long request, NSProgress should be used to track this information and handle within the framework.

The authorization scheme is a little underwhelming at the moment. At the simplest, it should be able to use the following common methods of request authentications:

• add query parameters to GET queries
• add a basic credential header using a base64 hash of username:password string
• add a a bearer credential header returned from an oauth login
