DataSource

abstract class DataSource

A source of data.

An abstraction over the byte stream writing operations, this class allows for a flexible way to write bytes to a BufferedSink.

Generally used for specifying a data source when creating/uploading files.

The create method can be used for reading data from a local file.
The create method can be used for reading data from a byte array.
The create method can be used for reading data from Okio's immutable byte arrays.
For any other cases just extend the class and do your magic in the writeTo method.
