Implement Server Sent Events for generated clients #7435
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe the problem.
Related to:
#6885 and ultimately release 1.30.0 https://github.com/microsoft/kiota/releases/tag/v1.30.0 that mentions supporting OpenAPI Spec 3.2.0 which include support for SSE.
Request:
As an end user of kiota i would like for the clients to handle Server Sent Events (SSE). Fast API recently released support for it officially. https://github.com/fastapi/fastapi/releases/tag/0.135.0
My use case i want to be able to have a python fastapi backend sending SSE to both other python apps and typescript.
Example app using kiota 1.30.0
I have spun up a simple setup to help show a few things. https://github.com/zendern/sse-kiota-example
- the openapi spec doc that is being generated
- current behavior of kiota generated clients for both typescript/python
Client library/SDK language
None
Describe the solution you'd like
Python
httpx has support today to stream data back. https://www.python-httpx.org/quickstart/#streaming-responses.
Typescript
Unsure here. The native feature is to use EventSource https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/EventSource. But since the default is to use fetch apis not sure how that looks. Its likely more complicated here since the result looks different than normal http traffic of request/response.
Ideally in both cases if the header from the openapi spec is text/event-stream it should use the language appropriate solution to make it work.
