Documentation

Overview

Package pipe provides implementations of unbounded and in-memory pipes, which provides a writer that the caller can use to collect data and a streamline.Stream instance that can be used to consume the data.

Variables

var FileBuffersSize int64 = 124 * 1024 * 1024 // 124MB

FileBuffersSize confiugres the size of files created to store buffer overflows after the in-memory capacity, MemoryBufferSize, is reached in the unbounded buffers created by NewStream.

var MemoryBufferSize int64 = 32 * 1024 * 1024 // 32MB

MemoryBufferSize confiugres the maximum in-memory size of the buffers created by this package.

When using the default unbounded buffer in NewStream, overflows are written to disk at increments of size FileBuffersSize.

Types

type WriterErrorCloser

type WriterErrorCloser interface {
	io.Writer
	// CloseWithError will prevent further writes to this Stream and propagate the error
	// to Stream readers.
	CloseWithError(error) error
}

func NewBoundedStream

func NewBoundedStream() (writer WriterErrorCloser, stream *streamline.Stream)

NewStream creates a Stream that consumes and emits data written to the returned writer, piped through a preconfigured bounded buffer (see MemoryBufferSize). It may be preferred over the default NewStream if you do not want to buffer to overflow onto temporary files. The writer and reader portions of the pipe can be written to and read asynchronously.

The returned WriterErrorCloser must be closed by the caller when all data has been written or when an error occurs at the source to indicate to the stream that no further data will become available.

For a stream that safely overflows the buffer onto disk, use NewStream instead.

func NewStream

func NewStream() (writer WriterErrorCloser, stream *streamline.Stream)

NewStream creates a Stream that consumes and emits data written to the returned writer, piped through a preconfigured, unbounded buffer (see MemoryBufferSize and FileBuffersSize). The writer and reader portions of the pipe can be written to and read asynchronously.

The returned WriterErrorCloser must be closed by the caller when all data has been written or when an error occurs at the source to indicate to the stream that no further data will become available.

For a purely in-memory buffer, NewBoundedStream can be used. For more advanced configurations, consider configuring a pipe directly with github.com/djherbis/nio/v3 or a pipe of your choice.
