class IO::Delimited

Overview

An IO that wraps another IO, and only reads up to the beginning of a specified delimiter.

This is useful for exposing part of an underlying stream to a client.

io = IO::Memory.new "abc||123"
delimited = IO::Delimited.new(io, read_delimiter: "||")

delimited.gets_to_end # => "abc"
delimited.gets_to_end # => ""
io.gets_to_end        # => "123"

Constructor Detail

def self.new(io : IO, read_delimiter : String, sync_close : Bool = false) #

Creates a new IO::Delimited which wraps io, and can read until the byte sequence read_delimiter (interpreted as UTF-8) is found. If sync_close is set, calling #close calls #close on the underlying IO.

def self.new(io : IO, read_delimiter : Bytes, sync_close : Bool = false) #

Creates a new IO::Delimited which wraps io, and can read until the byte sequence read_delimiter is found. If sync_close is set, calling #close calls #close on the underlying IO.

Instance Method Detail

def close : Nil #
Description copied from class IO

Closes this IO.

IO defines this is a no-op method, but including types may override.


[View source]
def closed? : Bool #
Description copied from class IO

Returns true if this IO is closed.

IO defines returns false, but including types may override.


[View source]
def peek : Bytes | Nil #
Description copied from class IO

Peeks into this IO, if possible.

It returns:

  • nil if this IO isn't peekable at this moment or at all
  • an empty slice if it is, but EOF was reached
  • a non-empty slice if some data can be peeked

The returned bytes are only valid data until a next call to any method that reads from this IO is invoked.

By default this method returns nil, but IO implementations that provide buffering or wrap other IOs should override this method.


[View source]
def read(slice : Bytes) : Int32 #
Description copied from class IO

Reads at most slice.size bytes from this IO into slice. Returns the number of bytes read, which is 0 if and only if there is no more data to read (so checking for 0 is the way to detect end of file).

io = IO::Memory.new "hello"
slice = Bytes.new(4)
io.read(slice) # => 4
slice          # => Bytes[104, 101, 108, 108]
io.read(slice) # => 1
slice          # => Bytes[111, 101, 108, 108]
io.read(slice) # => 0

[View source]
def read_delimiter : Slice(UInt8) #

[View source]
def sync_close=(sync_close : Bool) #

If #sync_close? is true, closing this IO will close the underlying IO.


[View source]
def sync_close? : Bool #

If #sync_close? is true, closing this IO will close the underlying IO.


[View source]
def write(slice : Bytes) : Nil #
Description copied from class IO

Writes the contents of slice into this IO.

io = IO::Memory.new
slice = Bytes.new(4) { |i| ('a'.ord + i).to_u8 }
io.write(slice)
io.to_s # => "abcd"
