Struct seek_bufread::BufReader

pub struct BufReader<R> { /* fields omitted */ }

The BufReader struct adds buffering to any reader.

It can be excessively inefficient to work directly with a Read instance. For example, every call to read on TcpStream results in a system call. A BufReader performs large, infrequent reads on the underlying Read and maintains an in-memory buffer of the results.

Examples

use std::io::prelude::*;
use std::fs::File;
use seek_bufread::BufReader;

let mut f = try!(File::open("log.txt"));
let mut reader = BufReader::new(f);

let mut line = String::new();
let len = try!(reader.read_line(&mut line));
println!("First line is {} bytes long", len);

Methods

impl<R: Read + Seek> BufReader<R>

fn new(inner: R) -> BufReader<R>

Creates a new BufReader with a default buffer capacity (8192 bytes).

Examples

use std::fs::File;
use seek_bufread::BufReader;

let mut f = try!(File::open("log.txt"));
let mut reader = BufReader::new(f);

fn with_capacity(cap: usize, inner: R) -> BufReader<R>

Creates a new BufReader with the specified buffer capacity.

Examples

Creating a buffer with ten bytes of capacity:

use std::fs::File;
use seek_bufread::BufReader;

let mut f = try!(File::open("log.txt"));
let mut reader = BufReader::with_capacity(10, f);

fn position(&self) -> u64

Returns the absolute file pointer position.

fn capacity(&self) -> usize

Returns the total buffer capacity.

fn available(&self) -> usize

Returns the current number of remaining bytes available in the buffer.

fn into_inner(self) -> Result<R>

Consumes self, synchronizes the inner reader position and returns the inner reader.

Trait Implementations

impl<R: Read> Read for BufReader<R>

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

Reads the next available bytes from buffer or inner stream. Doesn't guarantee the whole buffer is filled. Returns number of read bytes.

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, placing them into 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 chars(self) -> Chars<Self>

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

the semantics of a partial read/write of where errors happen is currently unclear and may change

Transforms this Read instance to an Iterator over chars.

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<R: Read> BufRead for BufReader<R>

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

Fills the internal buffer of this object, returning the buffer contents.

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<R: Read + Seek> Seek for BufReader<R>

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

Seek to an offset, in bytes, in the buffer or the underlying reader.

The position used for seeking with SeekFrom::Current(_) is the current position of the underlying reader plus the current position in the internal buffer.

Calling .unwrap() immediately after a seek doesn't guarantee the underlying reader at the same position!

See std::io::Seek for more details.

impl<R> Debug for BufReader<R> where
    R: Debug + Read + Seek, 

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.
