Constructor Details

#initialize(stream) ⇒ IO

Instantiate an MemoryIO::IO object.

Parameters:

  • stream (#pos, #pos=, #read, #write)

    The file-like object to be read/written. file can be un-writable if you will not invoke any write-related method.

    If stream.read(*) returns empty string or nil, it would be seen as reaching EOF.

Instance Method Details

#read(num_elements, from: nil, as: nil, force_array: false) ⇒ String, ...

Note:

This method’s arguments and return value are different with ::IO#read. Check documents and examples.

Read and convert result into custom type/structure.

Examples:

stream = StringIO.new('A' * 8 + 'B' * 8)
io = MemoryIO::IO.new(stream)
io.read(9)
#=> "AAAAAAAAB"
io.read(100)
#=> "BBBBBBB"

# read two unsigned 32-bit integers starts from posistion 4
io.read(2, from: 4, as: :u32)
#=> [1094795585, 1111638594] # [0x41414141, 0x42424242]

io.read(1, as: :u16)
#=> 16962 # 0x4242
io.read(1, as: :u16, force_array: true)
#=> [16962]
stream = StringIO.new("\xef\xbe\xad\xde")
io = MemoryIO::IO.new(stream)
io.read(1, as: :u32)
#=> 3735928559
io.rewind
io.read(1, as: :s32)
#=> -559038737
stream = StringIO.new("123\x0045678\x00")
io = MemoryIO::IO.new(stream)
io.read(2, as: :c_str)
#=> ["123", "45678"]
# pass lambda to `as`
stream = StringIO.new("\x03123\x044567")
io = MemoryIO::IO.new(stream)
io.read(2, as: lambda { |stream| stream.read(stream.read(1).ord) })
#=> ["123", "4567"]

Parameters:

  • num_elements (Integer)

    Number of elements to be read. This parameter must be positive and larger than zero.

    This parameter may effect the return type, see documents of return value.

  • from (Integer?) (defaults to: nil)

    Invoke stream.pos = from before starting to read. nil for not changing current position of stream.

  • as (nil, Symbol, Proc) (defaults to: nil)

    Decide the type/structure when reading. See Types for all supported types.

    A Proc is allowed, which should accept stream as the first argument. The return value of the proc would be the return objects of this method.

    If nil is given, this method returns a string and has same behavior as ::IO#read.

  • force_array (Boolean) (defaults to: false)

    When num_elements equals to 1, the read Object would be returned. Pass true to this parameter to force this method returning an array.

Returns:

  • (String, Object, Array<Object>)

    There're multiple possible return types, which depends on the value of parameter num_elements, as, and force_array.

    See examples for clear usage. The rule of return type is listed as following:

    • as = nil: A String with length num_elements is returned.

    • as != nil and num_elements = 1 and force_array = false: An Object is returned. The type of Object depends on parameter as.

    • as != nil and num_elements = 1 and force_array = true: An array with one element is returned.

    • as != nil and num_elements > 1: An array with length num_elements is returned.

    If EOF is occured, object(s) read will be returned.

  stream.pos = from if from
  return stream.read(num_elements) if as.nil?

  conv = to_proc(as, :read)
  # TODO: handle eof
  ret = Array.new(num_elements) { conv.call(stream) }
  ret = ret.first if num_elements == 1 && !force_array
  ret
end

#rewind0

Set stream to the beginning. i.e. invoke stream.pos = 0.

Returns:

  • (0)

def rewind

end

#write(objects, from: nil, as: nil) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Write to stream.

Examples:

stream = StringIO.new
io = MemoryIO::IO.new(stream)
io.write('abcd')
stream.string
#=> "abcd"

io.write([1, 2, 3, 4], from: 2, as: :u16)
stream.string
#=> "ab\x01\x00\x02\x00\x03\x00\x04\x00"

io.write(['A', 'BB', 'CCC'], from: 0, as: :c_str)
stream.string
#=> "A\x00BB\x00CCC\x00\x00"
stream = StringIO.new
io = MemoryIO::IO.new(stream)
io.write(%w[123 4567], as: ->(s, str) { s.write(str.size.chr + str) })
stream.string
#=> "\x03123\x044567"
stream = StringIO.new
io = MemoryIO::IO.new(stream)
cpp_string = CPP::String.new('A' * 4, 15, 16)
# equivalent to io.write(cpp_string, as: :'cpp/string')
io.write(cpp_string)
stream.string
#=> "\x10\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x04\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00AAAA\x00"

Parameters:

  • objects (Object, Array<Object>)

    Objects to be written.

  • from (Integer) (defaults to: nil)

    The position to start to write.

  • as (nil, Symbol, Proc) (defaults to: nil)

    Decide the method to process writing procedure. See Types for all supported types.

    A Proc is allowed, which should accept stream and one object as arguments.

    If objects is a descendant instance of Types::Type and as is nil, objects.class will be used for as. Otherwise, when as = nil+, this method will simply call stream.write(objects).
