checksumfile_updated

Documentation

Overview

Package checksumfile can be used to persist data to a file so that it is never corrupted. It only works on unix* systems as it writes data to a temp file and uses rename syscall to move the file atomically. An example is:

    func main() {
    	data := []byte{"Hello World!"}
    	filename := "var/lib/kronos/nodeInfo" // directory in which file is
    	// stored should exist beforehand and have w and x permissions for user,
     	// otherwise write will fail.
    	if err :=  checksumfile-updated.Write(filename, data) {
    		panic(err)
    	}
    	read, err := checksumfile-updated.Read(filename)
    	if err != nil {
    		panic(err)
    	}
      fmt.Println(read)
    }

	Package checksumfile is a generated protocol buffer package.

	It is generated from these files:
		kronos/checksumfile/fileextent.proto

	It has these top-level messages:
		FileExtent

var ErrChecksumMismatch = errors.New("checksum and data don't match")

ErrChecksumMismatch is returned when checksum and data don't match for a file

Functions

func Read

func Read(filename string) ([]byte, error)

Read reads data written to filename using the Write function. It returns an error if the checksums don't match or file doesn't exist.

func Write

func Write(filename string, p []byte) error

Write writes p to filename along with its checksum in a binary format. This data can be read using the Read function. Write returns an error if data could not be completely written for some reason. It never corrupts the existing file.
