Description
A large data file download follows a data request with eBay Feeds APIs. Currently, every library user needs to write code for this. That is a waste of labour!
Compare this with most API calls that return JSON data in the RESTful response. The library already handles them nicely.
Ideally, add a generator similar to what currently exists for all API calls that return "paged" data.
It's likely a "breaking change," so do it before moving to production/stable.
Does someone out there already have code to handle this that they could contribute to the project? Even a starting point that could be refactored into the library would be welcome.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by examining the library's existing generators for paged API responses and the eBay Feeds data-request and large-file download flow. Define the generator's expected interface and lifecycle from those patterns; done means library users can consume Feed results without writing their own download-handling code, with compatibility considered before a stable release.
