A combined byte and text output.

An IOSink combines a StreamSink of bytes with a StringSink, and allows easy output of both bytes and text.

Writing text (write) and adding bytes (add) may be interleaved freely.

While a stream is being added using addStream, any further attempts to add or write to the IOSink will fail until the addStream completes.

If data is added to the IOSink after the sink is closed, the data will be ignored. Use the done future to be notified when the IOSink is closed.

IOSink(StreamConsumer<List<int>> target, {Encoding encoding: UTF8})

Create an IOSink that outputs to a [target] [StreamConsumer] of bytes.

factory

Properties

done Future

Get a future that will complete when the consumer closes, or when an error occurs. This future is identical to the future returned by close.

read-only
encoding Encoding

The Encoding used when writing strings. Depending on the underlying consumer this property might be mutable.

read / write
hashCode int

Get a hash code for this object.

read-only, inherited
runtimeType Type

A representation of the runtime type of the object.

read-only, inherited

Operators

operator ==(other) bool

The equality operator.

Methods

add(List<int> data) → void

Adds byte data to the target consumer, ignoring encoding.

addError(error, [StackTrace stackTrace]) → void

Passes the error to the target consumer as an error event.

addStream(Stream<List<int>> stream) Future

Adds all elements of the given stream to this.

close() Future

Close the target consumer.

flush() Future

Returns a Future that completes once all buffered data is accepted by the to underlying StreamConsumer.

noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic

Invoked when a non-existent method or property is accessed.

inherited
toString() String

Returns a string representation of this object.

inherited
write(Object obj) → void

Converts obj to a String by invoking Object.toString and adds the encoding of the result to the target consumer.

writeAll(Iterable objects, [String separator = ""]) → void

Iterates over the given objects and writes them in sequence.

writeCharCode(int charCode) → void

Writes the character of charCode.

writeln([Object obj = ""]) → void

Converts obj to a String by invoking Object.toString and writes the result to this, followed by a newline.
