nukescripts.StringIO

class nukescripts.StringIO(initial_value='', newline='\n')

Bases: _io._TextIOBase

Text I/O implementation using an in-memory buffer.

The initial_value argument sets the value of object. The newline argument is like the one of TextIOWrapper’s constructor.

Methods

close	Close the IO object.
detach	Separate the underlying buffer from the TextIOBase and return it.
fileno	Returns underlying file descriptor if one exists.
flush	Flush write buffers, if applicable.
getvalue	Retrieve the entire contents of the object.
isatty	Return whether this is an 'interactive' stream.
read	Read at most size characters, returned as a string.
readable	Returns True if the IO object can be read.
readline	Read until newline or EOF.
readlines	Return a list of lines from the stream.
seek	Change stream position.
seekable	Returns True if the IO object can be seeked.
tell	Tell the current file position.
truncate	Truncate size to pos.
writable	Returns True if the IO object can be written.
write	Write string to file.
writelines	Write a list of lines to stream.

Attributes

closed
encoding	Encoding of the text stream.
errors	The error setting of the decoder or encoder.
line_buffering
newlines

close()

Close the IO object.

Attempting any further operation after the object is closed will raise a ValueError.

This method has no effect if the file is already closed.

detach()

Separate the underlying buffer from the TextIOBase and return it.

After the underlying buffer has been detached, the TextIO is in an unusable state.

encoding

Encoding of the text stream.

Subclasses should override.

errors

The error setting of the decoder or encoder.

Subclasses should override.

fileno()

Returns underlying file descriptor if one exists.

OSError is raised if the IO object does not use a file descriptor.

flush()

Flush write buffers, if applicable.

This is not implemented for read-only and non-blocking streams.

getvalue()

Retrieve the entire contents of the object.

isatty()

Return whether this is an ‘interactive’ stream.

Return False if it can’t be determined.

newlines

read(size=-1, /)

Read at most size characters, returned as a string.

If the argument is negative or omitted, read until EOF is reached. Return an empty string at EOF.

readable()

Returns True if the IO object can be read.

readline(size=-1, /)

Read until newline or EOF.

Returns an empty string if EOF is hit immediately.

readlines(hint=-1, /)

Return a list of lines from the stream.

hint can be specified to control the number of lines read: no more lines will be read if the total size (in bytes/characters) of all lines so far exceeds hint.

seek(pos, whence=0, /)

Change stream position.

Seek to character offset pos relative to position indicated by whence:

0 Start of stream (the default). pos should be >= 0; 1 Current position - pos must be 0; 2 End of stream - pos must be 0.

Returns the new absolute position.

seekable()

Returns True if the IO object can be seeked.

tell()

Tell the current file position.

truncate(pos=None, /)

Truncate size to pos.

The pos argument defaults to the current file position, as returned by tell(). The current file position is unchanged. Returns the new absolute position.

writable()

Returns True if the IO object can be written.

write(s, /)

Write string to file.

Returns the number of characters written, which is always equal to the length of the string.

writelines(lines, /)

Write a list of lines to stream.

Line separators are not added, so it is usual for each of the lines provided to have a line separator at the end.
