#964: Create Resource Downloader and make it pluggable

rgrp — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 00:23:24 GMT

In downloading packages we need to download resources and we need a ResourceDownloader? object for this. these should be pluggable so that we can add support for different types of resources.

#406: Download sub-system

rgrp — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 09:40:22 GMT

Factor out current downloader into dedicated download subpackage, abstract interface and make it pluggable so we can have downloaders loaded as per type of resource to download.

Also rename InstallCommand? -> DownloadCommand?

And we should support interactive retrieving of resources ...

Implementation Ideas

for resources in pkg.resources:
    # datapkg/hg
    load_storage_handler(resource.format)
