Changing Priority of download-dataTask after it started about kingfisher HOT 10 CLOSED

This would be a huge improvement! 👍

Also is there a reason for just toggling between NSURLSessionTaskPriorityLow and NSURLSessionTaskPriorityDefault? The priority parameter is a float ranging from 0 to 1. This flexibility shouldn't be hidden.

Yes, I a agree. That feature would be very useful.

The original implementation hides the Float detail and tries to make things simpler. But I guess it is reasonable to give users more control on it by setting a value for the priority. However, changes on it might means API breaking. I will take a look to see if we could mark current lowPriority option as deprecated and introduce a new way to set initial priority for a download task soon.

And for changing the priority on air when downloading, the downloader APIs (as well as the image view extension APIs) are returning a image task. We could just expose the priority property of task object to support changing it after download task started. It will be implemented soon in next major version.
