Std.Io.withReader

1 declaration

fn

withReader: Str -> fn(Std.Io.Reader) -> Result[T, Std.Io.IoError] -> Result[T, Std.Io.IoError]

This is a callable function.

What it does

Read a file through a handle the runtime owns for the length of the call.

There is no close a caller can forget, because there is no close: the

bracket opened the file and the bracket closes it, on the path where the

action answered and on the path where it failed.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
  • Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
  • Result makes success and recoverable failure part of the function's type.
