show(HTTP.Response) blocks forever

[samoconnor]

I have a server that streams forever.

If I try to get with stream=true form the REPL, the REPL tries to do show(HTTP.Response) and that blocks forever...

julia> r = HTTP.get("http://127.0.0.1:8000"; stream = true)
HTTP.Response:
"""
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Connection: keep-alive
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Cache-Control: no-cache
Content-Type: text/event-stream
Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2017 00:17:46 GMT
<waits forever!!>

The same thing happens when I use @show from a source file:

r = HTTP.get("http://127.0.0.1:8000"; stream = true)
@show typeof(r)
@show r

for l in eachline(HTTP.body(r))
    println(l)
end

typeof(r) = HTTP.Response
<waits forever!!>
