== Name
gun:data - Stream the body of a request
== Description
[source,erlang]
----
data(ConnPid, StreamRef, IsFin, Data) -> ok
ConnPid :: pid()
StreamRef :: reference()
IsFin :: fin | nofin
Data :: iodata()
----
Stream the body of a request.
This function can only be used if the original request
had headers indicating that a body would be streamed.
All calls to this function must use the `nofin` flag
except for the last which must use `fin` to indicate
the end of the request body.
Empty data is allowed regardless of the value of `IsFin`.
Gun may or may not send empty data chunks, however.
== Arguments
ConnPid::
The pid of the Gun connection process.
StreamRef::
Identifier of the stream for the original request.
IsFin::
Whether this message terminates the request.
Data::
All or part of the response body.
== Return value
The atom `ok` is returned.
== Changelog
* *1.0*: Function introduced.
== Examples

{<<"content-type">>, <<"text/plain">>}
]).
