Apart from the basic cases (ignoring, reading as a byte array or file), response body descriptions can be mapped
over, to support custom types. The mapping can take into account the ResponseMetadata, that is the headers and
status code. Responses can also be handled depending on the response metadata. Finally, two response body
descriptions can be combined (with some restrictions).
A number of as[Type] helper methods are available as part of SttpApi and when importing sttp.client3._.
T
Target type as which the response will be read.
R
The backend capabilities required by the response description. This might be Any (no requirements), Effect
(the backend must support the given effect type), Streams (the ability to send and receive streaming bodies)
or WebSockets (the ability to handle websocket requests).
