Rust crate that provides a high level abstraction around the asynchronous reqwest client. This abstraction is oriented towards making it easier to fetch and update files from remote locations. The primary purpose of this crate is to make it easy to fetch and decompress lists from apt repositories, for use in Pop!_OS as a more efficient apt replacement with superior error handling capabilities.
The included AsyncFetcher is used to construct future(s) for execution on an asynchronous runtime, such as tokio. The generated futures should be supplied to an asynchronous parallel runtime, to enable dispatching fetches across threads, in addition to processing multiple fetch tasks from the same thread. The general idea is to generate an iterator of fetch requests, and then combine these into a single future for parallel & asynchronous execution.
