        tbzuploader - Generic HTTP Uploading
        ====================================
        
        A lot of daily work is based on regular files.
        
        tbzuploader is a tool which detects uploadable files and posts them via HTTP while conforming to the
        standardized `HTTP Status Codes <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes#2xx_Success>`_.
        
        
        Upload Protocol
        ===============
        
        tbzuploader conforms to the generally accepted upload protocol.
        
        
        201 Created
        ***********
        
        If the HTTP upload is successful, the server responds with "201 Created".
        The files will then be moved to a "done" directory.
        
        400 Bad Request
        ***************
        
        If the HTTP upload is not successful and it is a client error (such as wrong files or corrupted files),
        the server responds with "400 Bad Request".
        The files will then be moved to a "failed" directory.
        
        In case you want to inform an admin, specify an email address which gets notified in that case, because
        failed files won't be retried.
        
        
        500 Internal Server Error and others
        ************************************
        
        If the HTTP upload was not successful (such as an login page, outage, programming error or overload),
        the server responds with other status codes (such as 500 Internal Server Error).
        tbzuploader will then retry to post the files next time.
        
        
        Features
        ========
        
        - pairs of arbitrary size (tuples, triplets, etc.)
        
          - For example you have four files: a.pdf, a.xml, b.pdf, b.xml
          - The first upload should take a.pdf and a.xml, and the second upload b.pdf and b.xml.
          - See the docs for `--patterns`.
        
        - mail to admin if broken files are uploaded
        
        
        Example
        =======
        
        ::
        
            user@host> tbzuploader my-local-dir https://user:password@myhost/upload-files
        
        This will upload files from directory "my-local-dir" to the specified URL.
        
        If the upload was **successful** (server returned http status "201 Created"),
        then the local files in "my-local-dir" get moved to "my-local-dir/done".
        
        If the upload **failed** because the server rejects the files (400 Bad Request),
        then the local files in "my-local-dir" get moved to "my-local-dir/failed".

        Protocol for resumable uploads 
        ==============================
        
        Unfortunately, tbzuploader does not support resumable uploads up to now.
        
        There is already a spec for it. 
        
        It would very cool if tbzuploader could support it: https://tus.io/
        
        Pull requests are welcome.
        
        
        Trivia: Why 201?
        ================
        
        Why does the http status 201 gets used, and not 200? In the beginning we used "200" for "successful upload". But somewhere was a bug on the server and the server took the upload request, ignored the files and showed the login-page and replied with http status "200". Hence the files got trashed, since the client thought the upload was successful. But of course the files were not lost. They were still in the done-directory.
        
        That's why 201 gets used.
