"""
Module for remotely retrieving descriptors from directory authorities and
mirrors. This is the simplest method for getting current tor descriptor
information...

::

  import stem.descriptor.remote

  for desc in stem.descriptor.remote.get_server_descriptors():
    if desc.exit_policy.is_exiting_allowed():
      print('  %s (%s)' % (desc.nickname, desc.fingerprint))

More custom downloading behavior can be done through the
:class:`~stem.descriptor.remote.DescriptorDownloader` class, which issues
:class:`~stem.descriptor.remote.Query` instances to get you descriptor
content. For example...

::

  from stem.descriptor.remote import DescriptorDownloader

  downloader = DescriptorDownloader(
    use_mirrors = True,
    timeout = 10,
  )

  query = downloader.get_server_descriptors()

  print('Exit Relays:')

  try:
    for desc in query.run():
      if desc.exit_policy.is_exiting_allowed():
        print('  %s (%s)' % (desc.nickname, desc.fingerprint))

    print
    print('Query took %0.2f seconds' % query.runtime)
  except Exception as exc:
    print('Unable to retrieve the server descriptors: %s' % exc)

::

    |- get_server_descriptors - provides present server descriptors
    |- get_extrainfo_descriptors - provides present extrainfo descriptors

    |- get_consensus - provides the present consensus or router status entries
    |- get_key_certificates - provides present authority key certificates
    +- query - request an arbitrary descriptor resource

  **ZSTD** compression requires `zstandard
  <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zstandard>`_, and **LZMA** requires the `lzma
  module <https://docs.python.org/3/library/lzma.html>`_.

  For legacy reasons if our resource has a '.z' suffix then our **compression**
  argument is overwritten with Compression.GZIP.

  .. versionchanged:: 1.7.0
     Added support for downloading from ORPorts.

  .. versionchanged:: 1.7.0
     Added the compression argument.

  .. versionchanged:: 1.7.0
     Added the reply_headers attribute.

     The class this provides changed between Python versions. In python2
     this was called httplib.HTTPMessage, whereas in python3 the class was
     renamed to http.client.HTTPMessage.

  .. versionchanged:: 1.7.0
     Endpoints are now expected to be :class:`~stem.DirPort` or
     :class:`~stem.ORPort` instances. Usage of tuples for this
     argument is deprecated and will be removed in the future.

  .. versionchanged:: 1.7.0
     Avoid downloading from tor26. This directory authority throttles its
     DirPort to such an extent that requests either time out or take on the
     order of minutes.

  .. versionchanged:: 1.7.0
     Avoid downloading from Bifroest. This is the bridge authority so it
     doesn't vote in the consensus, and apparently times out frequently.
