It models byte-oriented input and output with the Reader and Writer traits. Types that implement both `Reader` and `Writer` are called 'streams', and automatically implement the `Stream` trait. Implementations are provided for common I/O streams like file, TCP, UDP, Unix domain sockets. Readers and Writers may be composed to add capabilities like string parsing, encoding, and compression. # Examples Some examples of obvious things you might want to do * Read lines from stdin ```rust use std::io::BufferedReader; use std::io::stdin; let mut stdin = BufferedReader::new(stdin()); for line in stdin.lines() { print!("{}", line); } ``` * Read a complete file ```rust use std::io::File; let contents = File::open(&Path::new("message.txt")).read_to_end(); ``` * Write a line to a file ```rust # #[allow(unused_must_use)]; use std::io::File; let mut file = File::create(&Path::new("message.txt")); file.write(bytes!("hello, file!\n")); # drop(file); # ::std::io::fs::unlink(&Path::new("message.txt")); ``` * Iterate over the lines of a file ```rust use std::io::BufferedReader; use std::io::File; let path = Path::new("message.txt"); let mut file = BufferedReader::new(File::open(&path)); for line in file.lines() { print!("{}", line); } ``` * Pull the lines of a file into a vector of strings ```rust use std::io::BufferedReader; use std::io::File; let path = Path::new("message.txt"); let mut file = BufferedReader::new(File::open(&path)); let lines: ~[~str] = file.lines().collect(); ``` * Make a simple HTTP request FIXME This needs more improvement: TcpStream constructor taking &str, `write_str` and `write_line` methods. ```rust,should_fail # #[allow(unused_must_use)]; use std::io::net::ip::SocketAddr; use std::io::net::tcp::TcpStream; let addr = from_str::("127.0.0.1:8080").unwrap(); let mut socket = TcpStream::connect(addr).unwrap(); socket.write(bytes!("GET / HTTP/1.0\n\n")); let response = socket.read_to_end(); ``` * Connect based on URL? Requires thinking about where the URL type lives and how to make protocol handlers extensible, e.g. the "tcp" protocol yields a `TcpStream`. FIXME this is not implemented now. ```rust // connect("tcp://localhost:8080"); ``` # Terms * Reader - An I/O source, reads bytes into a buffer * Writer - An I/O sink, writes bytes from a buffer * Stream - Typical I/O sources like files and sockets are both Readers and Writers, and are collectively referred to a `streams`. such as encoding or decoding # Blocking and synchrony When discussing I/O you often hear the terms 'synchronous' and 'asynchronous', along with 'blocking' and 'non-blocking' compared and contrasted. A synchronous I/O interface performs each I/O operation to completion before proceeding to the next. Synchronous interfaces are usually used in imperative style as a sequence of commands. An asynchronous interface allows multiple I/O requests to be issued simultaneously, without waiting for each to complete before proceeding to the next. Asynchronous interfaces are used to achieve 'non-blocking' I/O. In traditional single-threaded systems, performing a synchronous I/O operation means that the program stops all activity (it 'blocks') until the I/O is complete. Blocking is bad for performance when there are other computations that could be done. Asynchronous interfaces are most often associated with the callback (continuation-passing) style popularised by node.js. Such systems rely on all computations being run inside an event loop which maintains a list of all pending I/O events; when one completes the registered callback is run and the code that made the I/O request continues. Such interfaces achieve non-blocking at the expense of being more difficult to reason about. Rust's I/O interface is synchronous - easy to read - and non-blocking by default. Remember that Rust tasks are 'green threads', lightweight threads that are multiplexed onto a single operating system thread. If that system thread blocks then no other task may proceed. Rust tasks are relatively cheap to create, so as long as other tasks are free to execute then non-blocking code may be written by simply creating a new task. When discussing blocking in regards to Rust's I/O model, we are concerned with whether performing I/O blocks other Rust tasks from proceeding. In other words, when a task calls `read`, it must then wait (or 'sleep', or 'block') until the call to `read` is complete. During this time, other tasks may or may not be executed, depending on how `read` is implemented. Rust's default I/O implementation is non-blocking; by cooperating directly with the task scheduler it arranges to never block progress of *other* tasks. Under the hood, Rust uses asynchronous I/O via a per-scheduler (and hence per-thread) event loop. Synchronous I/O requests are implemented by descheduling the running task and performing an asynchronous request; the task is only resumed once the asynchronous request completes. # Error Handling I/O is an area where nearly every operation can result in unexpected errors. Errors should be painfully visible when they happen, and handling them should be easy to work with. It should be convenient to handle specific I/O errors, and it should also be convenient to not deal with I/O errors. Rust's I/O employs a combination of techniques to reduce boilerplate while still providing feedback about errors. The basic strategy: * All I/O operations return `IoResult` which is equivalent to `Result`. The core `Result` type is defined in the `std::result` module. * If the `Result` type goes unused, then the compiler will by default emit a warning about the unused result. * Common traits are implemented for `IoResult`, e.g. `impl Reader for IoResult`, so that error values do not have to be 'unwrapped' before use. These features combine in the API to allow for expressions like `File::create(&Path::new("diary.txt")).write(bytes!("Met a girl.\n"))` without having to worry about whether "diary.txt" exists or whether the write succeeds. As written, if either `new` or `write_line` encounters an error then the result of the entire expression will be an error. If you wanted to handle the error though you might write: ```rust # #[allow(unused_must_use)]; use std::io::File; match File::create(&Path::new("diary.txt")).write(bytes!("Met a girl.\n")) { Ok(()) => { /* succeeded */ } Err(e) => println!("failed to write to my diary: {}", e), } # ::std::io::fs::unlink(&Path::new("diary.txt")); ``` So what actually happens if `create` encounters an error? It's important to know that what `new` returns is not a `File` but an `IoResult`. If the file does not open, then `new` will simply return `Err(..)`. Because there is an implementation of `Writer` (the trait required ultimately required for types to implement `write_line`) there is no need to inspect or unwrap the `IoResult` and we simply call `write_line` on it. If `new` returned an `Err(..)` then the followup call to `write_line` will also return an error. # Issues with i/o scheduler affinity, work stealing, task pinning # Resource management * `close` vs. RAII # Paths, URLs and overloaded constructors # Scope In scope for core * Url? Some I/O things don't belong in core - url - net - `fn connect` - http - flate Out of scope * Async I/O. We'll probably want it eventually # FIXME Questions and issues * Should default constructors take `Path` or `&str`? `Path` makes simple cases verbose. Overloading would be nice. * Add overloading for Path and &str and Url &str * stdin/err/out * print, println, etc. * fsync * relationship with filesystem querying, Directory, File types etc. * Rename Reader/Writer to ByteReader/Writer, make Reader/Writer generic? * Can Port and Chan be implementations of a generic Reader/Writer? * Trait for things that are both readers and writers, Stream? * How to handle newline conversion * String conversion * open vs. connect for generic stream opening * Do we need `close` at all? dtors might be good enough * How does I/O relate to the Iterator trait? * std::base64 filters * Using conditions is a big unknown since we don't have much experience with them * Too many uses of OtherIoError */ #[allow(missing_doc)]; #[deny(unused_must_use)]; use cast; use char::Char; use container::Container; use fmt; use int; use iter::Iterator; use option::{Option, Some, None}; use path::Path; use result::{Ok, Err, Result}; use str::{StrSlice, OwnedStr}; use str; use to_str::ToStr; use uint; use unstable::finally::try_finally; use vec::{OwnedVector, MutableVector, ImmutableVector, OwnedCloneableVector}; use vec; // Reexports pub use self::stdio::stdin; pub use self::stdio::stdout; pub use self::stdio::stderr; pub use self::stdio::print; pub use self::stdio::println; pub use self::fs::File; pub use self::timer::Timer; pub use self::net::ip::IpAddr; pub use self::net::tcp::TcpListener; pub use self::net::tcp::TcpStream; pub use self::net::udp::UdpStream; pub use self::pipe::PipeStream; pub use self::process::Process; pub use self::mem::{MemReader, BufReader, MemWriter, BufWriter}; pub use self::buffered::{BufferedReader, BufferedWriter, BufferedStream, LineBufferedWriter}; pub use self::comm_adapters::{PortReader, ChanWriter}; /// Various utility functions useful for writing I/O tests pub mod test; /// Synchronous, non-blocking filesystem operations. pub mod fs; /// Synchronous, in-memory I/O. pub mod pipe; /// Child process management. pub mod process; /// Synchronous, non-blocking network I/O. pub mod net; /// Readers and Writers for memory buffers and strings. mod mem; /// Non-blocking access to stdin, stdout, stderr pub mod stdio; /// Implementations for Result mod result; /// Extension traits pub mod extensions; /// Basic Timer pub mod timer; /// Buffered I/O wrappers mod buffered; /// Signal handling pub mod signal; /// Utility implementations of Reader and Writer pub mod util; /// Adapatation of Chan/Port types to a Writer/Reader type. mod comm_adapters; /// The default buffer size for various I/O operations // libuv recommends 64k buffers to maximize throughput // https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/libuv/oQO1HJAIDdA static DEFAULT_BUF_SIZE: uint = 1024 * 64; pub type IoResult = Result; /// The type passed to I/O condition handlers to indicate error /// /// # FIXME /// /// Is something like this sufficient?
