Hi I am wondering how one would go about streaming HTTP responses.

Basically i have a websevice where i request data and once requested and the curl object is opened i simply poll for the returned data on that socket in my event loop since the data never ends, it continues streaming.

At a high level in c code i would do something like to set up the socket for streaming read /writes
curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_URL, "https://test.com")
curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY, 1L)
curl_easy_perform(handle)

then to read the streamed data i would call the following from my event loop
curl_easy_recv(handle, buf, sizeof(buf), &nread)

then to write the streamed data i would call the following from my event loop
curl_easy_send(handle, req_string, req_len, &nsent))

Is there a way to accomplish this within porter?
