Dizze plugin **is net hifke mei de lêste 3 grutte releases fan WordPress** . It 
kin net langer wurde ûnderhâlden of stipe en kin kompatibiliteitsproblemen hawwe
as it wurdt brûkt mei resinte ferzjes fan WordPress.

## Beskriuwing

Provides an efficient streaming WordPress HTTP API transport with support for tunneled
proxy connections.

#### Drop-in Replacement

Leverage all the benefits of Beam without having to modify any existing `wp_remote_*`
WordPress HTTP API calls.

Honors all standard WordPress HTTP API request arguments, filters, and actions. 
For more details around the WordPress HTTP API please see https://codex.wordpress.
org/HTTP_API the codex site.

#### Must Use Plugin Compatible

May be installed as a “Must Use” plugin so the functionality is always in use. A
handy option for site maintainers.

#### Efficiency

Beam was designed with efficiency and accuracy of content sent to and read from 
connections in mind.

 * String concatenation is kept to a minimal.
 * PHP streams buffered read and writes minimize network traffic.
 * HTTP response is read without regular expression parsing.
 * Folded and multiple value HTTP response headers are supported.
 * Tolerant handling of LF only end of line markers while still supporting specification
   standard CRLF.

Built-in PHP stream filters remove the need for user space implementations resulting
in better memory management and performance.

 * `'dechunk'` Decodes HTTP 1.1 `Transfer-Encoding: chunked` responses (requires
   PHP 5.3+).
 * `'zlib.inflate'` Inflates `Content-Encoding: gzip` responses (requires zlib extension).

Beam uses these filters by default to cut down on network traffic and alter the 
response on the fly without needing to read in the entire response before hand. 
It is highly likely that these capabilities are already available; it makes sense
to use them.

#### Security

Uses TLS, by default, to establish HTTPS connections for improved security versus
SSL.

Beam provides filter `'stream_crypto_method'` to change the crypto method in use
based on the requested URL.

#### Proxy Support

Tunneled proxy connections may be established to connect to HTTPS sites over an 
HTTP proxy and avoid “503 Service Unavailable” HTTP errors. Now it’s possible to
update, install, and search WordPress and plugins which all use HTTPS URLs while
a proxy is in use without having to install the PHP cURL extension.

Beam provides filter `'proxy_tunnel'` to change which requests require a tunneled
proxy connection.

## Feroaringslog

#### 2.0.0

2016-07-09

This release was focused on getting Beam to work on WordPress 4.6.

 * FIX: WordPress 4.6 now uses the `Requests` library to handle HTTP requests and
   the swap prevented Beam from being used.
 * NEW: Beam is now triggered via the `pre_http_request` filter to handle requests.
 * NEW: `WP_HTTP_Beam` was renamed to `Beam` since Beam is no longer loaded as a
   WP HTTP API transport.

#### 1.0.0

Initial release.
