PSR-7 String Stream was born out of frustration working with PSR-7's StreamInterface. Most implementations typically use PHP Streams, which aren't the best to work with. I've run into bugs where harmless operations on Requests, such as `withHeaders` causes the underlying Body's destructor to be called, which closes the underlying stream. Since resources can't be cloned, this can cause the body to be destroyed.

This package, as the name implies, implements StreamInterface using strings which will survive clone+destroy.

If you're using this in production,

```
composer require ancarda/psr7-string-stream

```

If you're just using this in functional or unit tests, it can go in your `require-dev` section:

```
composer require --dev ancarda/psr7-string-stream

```
