Enum aoc_utils::BufferedInput

pub enum BufferedInput {
    File(BufReader<File>),
    Stdin(BufReader<Stdin>),
}

Wraps the input source to an AOC problem. Handles cmdline arguments.

Supports input from a given file as well as from STDIN. Implements std::io::BufRead for the convenience of the BufRead::lines iterator.

Example

If your executable is named prog and the description is "Example description", then the help (prog --help) will look like this:

Example description

USAGE:
    prog [FILE]

FLAGS:
    -h, --help       Prints help information
    -V, --version    Prints version information

ARGS:
    <FILE>    Input file (defaults to STDIN if not provided)

Variants

File(BufReader<File>)

Stdin(BufReader<Stdin>)

Implementations

impl BufferedInput

pub fn parse_args(description: &str) -> Result<Self>

Parse cmdline arguments and create a new object to read lines from an arbitrary input source.

The application optionally expects a path argument that specifies the file to read from. If not present, the input is read from STDIN.

Arguments

• description - provides an "about" section in the usage manual.

Example

use std::io::BufRead;
use aoc_utils::BufferedInput;

let input = BufferedInput::parse_args("Example solution").unwrap();
let lines: Vec<String> = input.lines().map(Result::unwrap).collect();

pub fn unwrapped_lines(self) -> impl Iterator<Item = String>

Returns an iterator over the lines of the input that panics when an error occurs.

Trait Implementations

impl BufRead for BufferedInput

fn fill_buf(&mut self) -> Result<&[u8]>

Returns the contents of the internal buffer, filling it with more data from the inner reader if it is empty.

fn consume(&mut self, amt: usize)

Tells this buffer that amt bytes have been consumed from the buffer, so they should no longer be returned in calls to read.

fn read_until(&mut self, byte: u8, buf: &mut Vec<u8>) -> Result<usize, Error>

Read all bytes into buf until the delimiter byte or EOF is reached.

fn read_line(&mut self, buf: &mut String) -> Result<usize, Error>

Read all bytes until a newline (the 0xA byte) is reached, and append them to the provided buffer.

fn split(self, byte: u8) -> Split<Self>

Returns an iterator over the contents of this reader split on the byte byte.

fn lines(self) -> Lines<Self>

Returns an iterator over the lines of this reader.

impl Read for BufferedInput

fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize>

Pull some bytes from this source into the specified buffer, returning how many bytes were read.

fn read_vectored(&mut self, bufs: &mut [IoSliceMut]) -> Result<usize, Error>

Like read, except that it reads into a slice of buffers.

fn is_read_vectored(&self) -> bool

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (can_vector)

Determines if this Reader has an efficient read_vectored implementation.

unsafe fn initializer(&self) -> Initializer

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (read_initializer)

Determines if this Reader can work with buffers of uninitialized memory.

fn read_to_end(&mut self, buf: &mut Vec<u8>) -> Result<usize, Error>

Read all bytes until EOF in this source, placing them into buf.

fn read_to_string(&mut self, buf: &mut String) -> Result<usize, Error>

Read all bytes until EOF in this source, appending them to buf.

fn read_exact(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<(), Error>

Read the exact number of bytes required to fill buf.

fn by_ref(&mut self) -> &mut Self

Creates a "by reference" adaptor for this instance of Read.

fn bytes(self) -> Bytes<Self>

Transforms this Read instance to an [Iterator] over its bytes.

fn chain<R>(self, next: R) -> Chain<Self, R> where
    R: Read, 

Creates an adaptor which will chain this stream with another.

fn take(self, limit: u64) -> Take<Self>

Creates an adaptor which will read at most limit bytes from it.
