Struct blake3::OutputReader

pub struct OutputReader { /* fields omitted */ }

An incremental reader for extended output, returned by Hasher::finalize_xof.

Methods

impl OutputReader

pub fn fill(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8])

Fill a buffer with output bytes and advance the position of the OutputReader. This is equivalent to Read::read, except that it doesn't return a Result. Both methods always fill the entire buffer.

Note that OutputReader doesn't buffer output bytes internally, so calling fill repeatedly with a short-length or odd-length slice will end up performing the same compression multiple times. If you're reading output in a loop, prefer a slice length that's a multiple of 64.

The maximum output size of BLAKE3 is 2⁶⁴-1 bytes. If you try to extract more than that, for example by seeking near the end and reading further, the behavior is unspecified.

pub fn position(&self) -> u64

Return the current read position in the output stream. The position of a new OutputReader starts at 0, and each call to fill or Read::read moves the position forward by the number of bytes read.

pub fn set_position(&mut self, position: u64)

Seek to a new read position in the output stream. This is equivalent to calling Seek::seek with SeekFrom::Start, except that it doesn't return a Result.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for OutputReader

Important traits for OutputReader

impl Read for OutputReader

fn clone(&self) -> OutputReader

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for OutputReader

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Read for OutputReader

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.

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.

impl Seek for OutputReader

fn seek(&mut self, pos: SeekFrom) -> Result<u64>

Seek to an offset, in bytes, in a stream.

fn stream_len(&mut self) -> Result<u64, Error>

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

Returns the length of this stream (in bytes).

fn stream_position(&mut self) -> Result<u64, Error>

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

Returns the current seek position from the start of the stream.
