IO::PrefixSuffixBuffer - Crystal 1.20.1

# class IO::PrefixSuffixBuffer

- IO::PrefixSuffixBuffer
- IO
- Reference
- Object

##
Overview

`PrefixSuffixBuffer` is an `IO` that retains the first bytes in the prefix buffer and the last bytes in the suffix buffer.

When writing more bytes than fit in the buffers, only the start and end bytes are preserved. `#to_s` renders the buffer contents with a message indicating how many bytes were omitted.

EXPERIMENTAL

Defined in:

io/prefix_suffix_buffer.cr

##
Constructors

- .new(prefix : Bytes, suffix : Bytes)

  Creates an instance using the given buffers.

- .new(size : Int32 = IO::DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE) : self

  Creates an instance with prefix and suffix buffers of the given size.

##

##
Constructor Detail

def self.new(prefix : Bytes, suffix : Bytes) #

Creates an instance using the given buffers.

The maximum size that this instance can consume without omitting data is the sum of the buffer sizes.

def self.new(size : Int32 = IO::DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE) : self #

Creates an instance with prefix and suffix buffers of the given size.

The maximum size that this instance can consume without omitting data is `size * 2`.

##
Instance Method Detail

def capacity #
def read(slice : Bytes) : NoReturn #
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

def to_s(io : IO) : Nil #

Appends the buffer to the given `IO`.

When the total size of the consumed data exceeds the buffer size, the middle part is omitted and replaced by a message that indicates the number of skipped bytes.

def to_s : String #
Description copied from class Object

Returns a nicely readable and concise string representation of this object, typically intended for users.

This method should usually not be overridden. It delegates to `#to_s(IO)` which can be overridden for custom implementations.

Also see `#inspect`.

def total_size : Int32 #
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"
