//
//  GTMHTTPFetcher.h
//

// This is essentially a wrapper around NSURLConnection for POSTs and GETs.
// If setPostData: is called, then POST is assumed.
//
// When would you use this instead of NSURLConnection?
//
// - When you just want the result from a GET, POST, or PUT
// - When you want the "standard" behavior for connections (redirection handling
//   an so on)
// - When you want automatic retry on failures
// - When you want to avoid cookie collisions with Safari and other applications
// - When you are fetching resources with ETags and want to avoid the overhead
//   of repeated fetches of unchanged data
// - When you need to set a credential for the http operation
//
// This is assumed to be a one-shot fetch request; don't reuse the object
// for a second fetch.
//
// The fetcher may be created auto-released, in which case it will release
// itself after the fetch completion callback.  The fetcher is implicitly
// retained as long as a connection is pending.
//
// But if you may need to cancel the fetcher, retain it and have the delegate
// release the fetcher in the callbacks.
//
// Sample usage:
//
//  NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:myURL];
//  GTMHTTPFetcher* myFetcher = [GTMHTTPFetcher fetcherWithRequest:request];
//
//  // optional upload body data
//  [myFetcher setPostData:[postString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
//
//  [myFetcher beginFetchWithDelegate:self
//                  didFinishSelector:@selector(myFetcher:finishedWithData:error:)];
//
//  Upon fetch completion, the callback selector is invoked; it should have
//  this signature (you can use any callback method name you want so long as
//  the signature matches this):
//
//  - (void)myFetcher:(GTMHTTPFetcher *)fetcher finishedWithData:(NSData *)retrievedData error:(NSError *)error;
//
//  The block callback version looks like:
//
//  [myFetcher beginFetchWithCompletionHandler:^(NSData *retrievedData, NSError *error) {
//    if (error != nil) {
//      // status code or network error
//    } else {
//      // succeeded
//    }
//  }];

//
// NOTE:  Fetches may retrieve data from the server even though the server
//        returned an error.  The failure selector is called when the server
//        status is >= 300, with an NSError having domain
//        kGTMHTTPFetcherStatusDomain and code set to the server status.
//
//        Status codes are at <http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html>
//
//
// Downloading to disk:
//
// To have downloaded data saved directly to disk, specify either a path for the
// downloadPath property, or a file handle for the downloadFileHandle property.
// When downloading to disk, callbacks will be passed a nil for the NSData*
// arguments.
//
//
// HTTP methods and headers:
//
// Alternative HTTP methods, like PUT, and custom headers can be specified by
// creating the fetcher with an appropriate NSMutableURLRequest
//
//
// Proxies:
//
// Proxy handling is invisible so long as the system has a valid credential in
// the keychain, which is normally true (else most NSURL-based apps would have
// difficulty.)  But when there is a proxy authetication error, the the fetcher
// will call the failedWithError: method with the NSURLChallenge in the error's
// userInfo. The error method can get the challenge info like this:
//
//  NSURLAuthenticationChallenge *challenge
//     = [[error userInfo] objectForKey:kGTMHTTPFetcherErrorChallengeKey];
//  BOOL isProxyChallenge = [[challenge protectionSpace] isProxy];
//
// If a proxy error occurs, you can ask the user for the proxy username/password
// and call fetcher's setProxyCredential: to provide those for the
// next attempt to fetch.
//
//
// Cookies:
//
// There are three supported mechanisms for remembering cookies between fetches.
//
// By default, GTMHTTPFetcher uses a mutable array held statically to track
// cookies for all instantiated fetchers. This avoids server cookies being set
// by servers for the application from interfering with Safari cookie settings,
// and vice versa.  The fetcher cookies are lost when the application quits.
//
// To rely instead on WebKit's global NSHTTPCookieStorage, call
// setCookieStorageMethod: with kGTMHTTPFetcherCookieStorageMethodSystemDefault.
//
// If the fetcher is created from a GTMHTTPFetcherService object
// then the cookie storage mechanism is set to use the cookie storage in the
// service object rather than the static storage.
//
//
// Fetching for periodic checks:
//
// The fetcher object tracks ETag headers from responses and
// provide an "If-None-Match" header. This allows the server to save
// bandwidth by providing a status message instead of repeated response
// data.
//
// To get this behavior, create the fetcher from an GTMHTTPFetcherService object
// and look for a fetch callback error with code 304
// (kGTMHTTPFetcherStatusNotModified) like this:
//
// - (void)myFetcher:(GTMHTTPFetcher *)fetcher finishedWithData:(NSData *)data error:(NSError *)error {
//    if ([error code] == kGTMHTTPFetcherStatusNotModified) {
//      // |data| is empty; use the data from the previous finishedWithData: for this URL
//    } else {
//      // handle other server status code
//    }
// }
//
//
// Monitoring received data
//
// The optional received data selector can be set with setReceivedDataSelector:
// and should have the signature
//
//  - (void)myFetcher:(GTMHTTPFetcher *)fetcher receivedData:(NSData *)dataReceivedSoFar;
//
// The number bytes received so far is available as [fetcher downloadedLength].
// This number may go down if a redirect causes the download to begin again from
// a new server.
//
// If supplied by the server, the anticipated total download size is available
// as [[myFetcher response] expectedContentLength] (and may be -1 for unknown
// download sizes.)
//
//
// Automatic retrying of fetches
//
// The fetcher can optionally create a timer and reattempt certain kinds of
// fetch failures (status codes 408, request timeout; 503, service unavailable;
// 504, gateway timeout; networking errors NSURLErrorTimedOut and
// NSURLErrorNetworkConnectionLost.)  The user may set a retry selector to
// customize the type of errors which will be retried.
//
// Retries are done in an exponential-backoff fashion (that is, after 1 second,
// 2, 4, 8, and so on.)
//
// Enabling automatic retries looks like this:
//  [myFetcher setRetryEnabled:YES];
//
// With retries enabled, the success or failure callbacks are called only
// when no more retries will be attempted. Calling the fetcher's stopFetching
// method will terminate the retry timer, without the finished or failure
// selectors being invoked.
//
// Optionally, the client may set the maximum retry interval:
//  [myFetcher setMaxRetryInterval:60.0]; // in seconds; default is 60 seconds
//                                        // for downloads, 600 for uploads
//
// Also optionally, the client may provide a callback selector to determine
// if a status code or other error should be retried.
//  [myFetcher setRetrySelector:@selector(myFetcher:willRetry:forError:)];
//
// If set, the retry selector should have the signature:
//   -(BOOL)fetcher:(GTMHTTPFetcher *)fetcher willRetry:(BOOL)suggestedWillRetry forError:(NSError *)error
// and return YES to set the retry timer or NO to fail without additional
// fetch attempts.
//
// The retry method may return the |suggestedWillRetry| argument to get the
// default retry behavior.  Server status codes are present in the
// error argument, and have the domain kGTMHTTPFetcherStatusDomain. The
// user's method may look something like this:
//
//  -(BOOL)myFetcher:(GTMHTTPFetcher *)fetcher willRetry:(BOOL)suggestedWillRetry forError:(NSError *)error {
//
//    // perhaps examine [error domain] and [error code], or [fetcher retryCount]
//    //
//    // return YES to start the retry timer, NO to proceed to the failure
//    // callback, or |suggestedWillRetry| to get default behavior for the
//    // current error domain and code values.
//    return suggestedWillRetry;
//  }
