Hi Glyph and David, Thanks for your answers and thanks for taking time to answer. It was indeed my wrong understanding. I was trying to understand what HTTPClientChannelRequest does in terms of producer and consumer (Its a lot deep considering me being relatively new at this). Looking further at the code I do understand that we have a producer which generates the necessary data which can be written out using the transport and we have a consumer which works of the data from the dataReceived (I hope my understanding is correct and I don't know how it is buffered and I don't know how the flow tells the consumer that there is data for use).
I understand there is https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/15.4.0/core/howto/producers.html, however I was hoping if there is an example of a simple consumer which could be written using the data from dataReceived (that is assuming whatever I understood above is correct). I didn't find enough information on how to create a consumer.
