Feature request: access to HTTPURLResponse for downloaded feed #129

Closed algrid closed 1 year ago

algrid commented 3 years ago

Sometimes it can be useful to know what HTTP headers server has returned with the feed data. I'm particularly interested in "Etag" and "Last-Modified" headers. It would be nice to include this data into the result of parseAsync for parser instances initialized with feed URL.

+1 to this. Getting and even passing HTTP Headers would be a really good feature.

@algrid there's a workaround for this. The documentation on GitHub doesn't mention it, but the parser has a initialiser that takes Data.

You can just make your own network calls and parse the data afterwards.

Hope it helps.

Such feature would probably be out of the scope of this framework. Thank you, @algrid and @JoaoCPires for helping out. Closing this for now.
