`iterable-io` is a small Python library that provides an adapter so that it's possible to read from [iterable](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-iterable) objects in the same way as [file-like](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-file-object) objects. It is primarily useful as "glue" between two incompatible interfaces. As an example, in the case where one interface expects a file-like object to call `.read()` on, and the other only provides a generator of bytes. One way to solve this issue would be to write all the bytes in the generator to a temporary file, then provide that file instead, but if the generator produces a large amount of data then this is both slow to start, and resource-intensive. This library allows streaming data between these two incompatible interfaces so as data is requested by `.read()`, it's pulled from the iterable. This keeps resource usage low and removes the startup
