Support for streaming responses

[clotodex]

AWS recently released support to stream responoses, see here

Since it accepts any kind of response (streamed or not) I think this should be implementable. I am using rocket so I only looked at that part of the code, but it seems like the major change would be to return a response instead of a value and adding all relevant headers etc to that response.

Alright looking more into it it is definitely possible, since rocket::Response returns AsyncRead which can be accepted as stream into the hyper:::Response.
But I met my match with lifetimes and async - I for the life of me cannot figure out how to make the AsyncRead live long enough for the lambda response.

is there any update on this?

also looking to support streaming responses, would be amazing if this works out of the box with axum
