Hi,

With Click < 7.0, iterating on the bar object was possible:

In [8]: with click.progressbar(range(10)) as bar:
   ...:     next(bar)
   ...:     next(bar)
   ...:     
  [#######-----------------------------]   20%

With Click 7.0, this is broken:

In [2]: with click.progressbar(range(10)) as bar:
   ...:     next(bar)
   ...:     next(bar)
   ...:     
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-2-85d302084fbb> in <module>()
      1 with click.progressbar(range(10)) as bar:
----> 2     next(bar)
      3     next(bar)
      4 

TypeError: 'ProgressBar' object is not an iterator

Is it on purpose ? Seems related to 82f9c62 (#487)

Bisect shows 8780a76, from #706, as the origin of the issue. Prior to that, ProgressBar had a next method.

@ThiefMaster and @dsully, were involved in that PR.

Since click is a py2/py3 compatible project, we should consider using six.Iterator to make it easier to ensure that both the py2 and py3 interfaces are satisfied.

This also seems pretty easy to add a test for, based on the example given.

Due to various issues, we don't use six in the Pallets projects. I think there was actually an issue with streams due to six that was worked around in Click 7.

We try to implement only as much as we need in _compat.

I don't mind just adding __next__ and doing next = __next__.

I'm super-curious, but I'll save looking into this until after my workday.

six.Iterator is a very, very simple class, so I certainly don't think we need to pull in six just for that.

Adding __next__ and aliasing next = __next__ on iterables is a more-than-reasonable solution. I'll try to remember to open a PR tonight.

sirosen added a commit to sirosen/click that referenced this issue Nov 6, 2018
- add a test for iterating on a progressbar with next()
- implement `next()` in terms of `iter(ProgressBar)`, which is already
  well-defined
- add a note about slow operations with progressbar to narrative docs

One of the keys to this working is that `ProgressBar.generator` is
consuming an iterable and doesn't store any important state in local
variables, making it re-entry safe.

I wasn't sure how we can best hint in the public docs that simply
walking the bar and stopping one step short of finishing will result in
the progress bar "hanging" unfinished. Noting that we work well with
things like `time.sleep()` seems like a decent way of advertising
positively something which we support *and* guiding anyone going
off-book into proper usage.
