Struct std::io::Take

pub struct Take<T> { /* fields omitted */ }

Reader adaptor which limits the bytes read from an underlying reader.

This struct is generally created by calling take on a reader. Please see the documentation of take for more details.

Methods

impl<T> Take<T>

pub fn limit(&self) -> u64

Returns the number of bytes that can be read before this instance will return EOF.

Note

This instance may reach EOF after reading fewer bytes than indicated by this method if the underlying Read instance reaches EOF.

Examples

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

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let f = File::open("foo.txt")?;

    // read at most five bytes
    let handle = f.take(5);

    println!("limit: {}", handle.limit());
    Ok(())
}

pub fn set_limit(&mut self, limit: u64)

Sets the number of bytes that can be read before this instance will return EOF. This is the same as constructing a new Take instance, so the amount of bytes read and the previous limit value don't matter when calling this method.

Examples

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

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let f = File::open("foo.txt")?;

    // read at most five bytes
    let mut handle = f.take(5);
    handle.set_limit(10);

    assert_eq!(handle.limit(), 10);
    Ok(())
}

pub fn into_inner(self) -> T

Consumes the Take, returning the wrapped reader.

Examples

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

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let mut file = File::open("foo.txt")?;

    let mut buffer = [0; 5];
    let mut handle = file.take(5);
    handle.read(&mut buffer)?;

    let file = handle.into_inner();
    Ok(())
}

pub fn get_ref(&self) -> &T

Gets a reference to the underlying reader.

Examples

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

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let mut file = File::open("foo.txt")?;

    let mut buffer = [0; 5];
    let mut handle = file.take(5);
    handle.read(&mut buffer)?;

    let file = handle.get_ref();
    Ok(())
}

pub fn get_mut(&mut self) -> &mut T

Gets a mutable reference to the underlying reader.

Care should be taken to avoid modifying the internal I/O state of the underlying reader as doing so may corrupt the internal limit of this Take.

Examples

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

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let mut file = File::open("foo.txt")?;

    let mut buffer = [0; 5];
    let mut handle = file.take(5);
    handle.read(&mut buffer)?;

    let file = handle.get_mut();
    Ok(())
}

Trait Implementations

impl<T: BufRead> BufRead for Take<T>

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>

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

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

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> where
    Self: Sized, 

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

fn lines(self) -> Lines<Self> where
    Self: Sized, 

Returns an iterator over the lines of this reader.

impl<T: Debug> Debug for Take<T>

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<T: Read> Read for Take<T>

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.

unsafe fn initializer(&self) -> Initializer

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (read_initializer #42788)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Read the exact number of bytes required to fill buf.

fn by_ref(&mut self) -> &mut Self where
    Self: Sized, 

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

fn bytes(self) -> Bytes<Self> where
    Self: Sized, 

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

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

Creates an adaptor which will chain this stream with another.

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

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