# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:59 inoas well if you get some tokens from a server
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:58 admad caching POST/PUT ??
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:58 inoas :(
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:58 inoas and I don't want things to error out
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:58 inoas all those is because some web services are flanky and don't have 100% uptime but are required for front end / end user processes
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:57 admad "Custom caching decision" is probably what you would need
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:57 inoas though I need it for POST/PUT too... as weird as it sounds - in that case the cached responses would get "consumed"
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:57 inoas nice
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:56 admad this would be one of the cases where using the beast guzzle would be justified http://guzzle3.readthedocs.io/plugins/cache-plugin.html
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:50 hmic lets go for it! i do like your proposal in some weird ways, to allow caching on that level
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:48 hmic does not look too bad to me... but once there are more than one adapter, defining an interface does make sense nether the less...
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:47 hmic thats a hell of an interface to go wrong :P
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:47 inoas you got a point there
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:46 hmic inoas, you are really concerned about the 3 methods the adapter exposes? :O
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:45 inoas (same interface for Cake\Http\Client\Adapter\Stream and for my new adapter obviously)
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:44 inoas ... and once the interface is build and the adapter runs I should PR that interface to the core?
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:44 inoas hmic the problem is that I also want to prefetch things and store them, just using an outside http proxy is not easier
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:43 inoas so I should build my own interface based on the implicit one
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:43 hmic i still guess it's not worth it...
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:43 inoas ok
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:43 admad *build
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:43 admad we can discuss adding an interface once you have built your own adapter :slightly_smiling_face: until now no one seems to be interested in spending time doing do
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:42 inoas if you change the internals and there is no interface, things will just crash randomly?
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:42 hmic it seems quite difficult - and bad naming from the start in psr-7, there is so much confusion about request/response in eighter generating or consuming them and the (obviously) differing interfaces and implementations
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:42 inoas how would I know what methods to support now/in future?
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:41 inoas admad ok when the cakephp client adapter is configurable, is there a good reason the only build-in adapter has no interface?
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:41 hmic as the name suggests - it's an adapter (only)
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:41 inoas and for other web services a bunch of requests can be made and the responses can be consumed later
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:41 inoas the idea would be that for some web services data/responses can be cached in case the web services are down and the cache can be rebuild non-blocking
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:41 admad because that interface is for building your own response stream, not consuming an external one
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:39 inoas huh? hinted I know that that's the solution but I wonder why it it not https://github.com/php-fig/http-message/blob/master/src/StreamInterface.php an what interface I should program against
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:39 hmic ;)
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:39 hmic i guess he hinted you on the solution with the last sentence
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:39 inoas defaulting to a new adapater is a piece of cake already
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:38 inoas admad so there I am and I was wondering why Http\Client\Adapter\Stream had no Interface
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:38 hmic ;-)
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:38 admad then good luck extending and overriding required parts of Http\Client\Adapter\Stream and tell Http\Client to use that class using 'adapter' config
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:38 hmic however, you need to recreate a response object from stored data in this case. which is, like admad said, non-trivial at best
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:37 hmic what about directing your requests to a caching proxy to hide the complexity from the app *completely*? :P
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:36 inoas some caches should be consumable - configure thing
# Mar 2nd 2018, 14:36 inoas so I can drop it in and it will behave based on a little bit of configuration exactly like Client ... or return things from cache depending on the same url/query-string/http-headers and cache-time-window
