olio 1.4.0

Miscellaneous I/O utilities
Documentation
//! This crate provides I/O-related utilities complimenting the Rust Standard
//! Library `std::io`, `std::fs`, etc.
//!
//! ## Overview
//!
//! The [`fs`] module includes a [`fs::PosRead`] trait, offering a uniform
//! `pread` for positioned file reads, and a [`fs::ReadSlice`] supporting
//! multiple independent reader instances limited to a fixed start..end range.
//!
//! The [`io`] module includes a [`io::GatheringReader`], which presents a
//! continuous `Read` interface over N non-contiguous byte buffers.
//!
//! The [`mem`] module includes a [`mem::MemHandle`] supporting prioritized
//! concurrent memory access advice (e.g. madvise (2) on unix).
//!
//! ## Optional Features
//!
//! _mmap (default):_ Adds [`fs::ReadSlice::mem_map`] support for memory
//! mapping.

/// Filesystem extensions and utilities.
///
/// The [`fs::PosRead`] trait offers a uniform `pread` for positioned reads.
///
/// The [`fs::ReadPos`] and [`fs::ReadSlice`] types re-implement `Read` and
/// `Seek` over any `Borrow` of a `PosRead` type. For `File` in particular,
/// this enables multiple independent reader instances, without needing a path
/// to open an independent new `File` instance.  Thus these types are
/// compatible with "unnamed" (not linked) temporary files, and can reduce the
/// number of necessary file handles.  Note that unix `dup`/`dup2` and the
/// standard `File::try_clone` do _not_ provide independent file positions.
///
/// ## Example
///
/// ``` rust
/// # use std::io;
/// use std::fs::File;
/// use std::io::{Read, Write};
/// use olio::fs::{ReadPos, ReadSlice};
/// use tempfile::tempfile;
///
/// # fn run() -> Result<(), io::Error> {
/// let mut file = tempfile()?;
/// file.write_all(b"0123456789")?;
///
/// // ReadPos by &File so that we can subslice by shared reference
/// let mut rpos = ReadPos::new(&file, 10);
///
/// // Read the first half
/// let mut buf = [0u8; 5];
/// rpos.read_exact(&mut buf)?;
/// assert_eq!(&buf, b"01234");
///
/// // Create an independent ReadSlice and read to end
/// let mut rslice = rpos.subslice(2, 7);
/// let mut buf = Vec::new();
/// rslice.read_to_end(&mut buf)?;
/// assert_eq!(&buf, b"23456");
///
/// // Read the second half from the original ReadPos
/// assert_eq!(rpos.tell(), 5);
/// let mut buf = [0u8; 5];
/// rpos.read_exact(&mut buf)?;
/// assert_eq!(&buf, b"56789");
/// # Ok(())
/// # }
/// # run().unwrap();
/// ```
