class IO

Public Instance Methods

nread → int click to toggle source

Returns number of bytes that can be read without blocking. Returns zero if no information available.

You must require ‘io/wait’ to use this method.

static VALUE
io_nread(VALUE io)
{
    rb_io_t *fptr;
    int len;
    ioctl_arg n;

    GetOpenFile(io, fptr);
    rb_io_check_readable(fptr);
    len = rb_io_read_pending(fptr);
    if (len > 0) return INT2FIX(len);
    if (!FIONREAD_POSSIBLE_P(fptr->fd)) return INT2FIX(0);
    if (ioctl(fptr->fd, FIONREAD, &n)) return INT2FIX(0);
    if (n > 0) return ioctl_arg2num(n);
    return INT2FIX(0);
}
ready? → truthy or falsy click to toggle source

Returns a truthy value if input available without blocking, or a falsy value.

You must require ‘io/wait’ to use this method.

static VALUE
io_ready_p(VALUE io)
{
    rb_io_t *fptr;
#ifndef HAVE_RB_IO_WAIT
    struct timeval tv = {0, 0};
#endif

    GetOpenFile(io, fptr);
    rb_io_check_readable(fptr);
    if (rb_io_read_pending(fptr)) return Qtrue;

#ifndef HAVE_RB_IO_WAIT
    return wait_for_single_fd(fptr, RB_WAITFD_IN, &tv) ? Qtrue : Qfalse;
#else
    return io_wait_event(io, RUBY_IO_READABLE, RB_INT2NUM(0), 1);
#endif
}
wait(events, timeout) → event mask, false or nil click to toggle source
wait(timeout = nil, mode = :read) → self, true, or false

Waits until the IO becomes ready for the specified events and returns the subset of events that become ready, or a falsy value when times out.

The events can be a bit mask of IO::READABLE, IO::WRITABLE or IO::PRIORITY.

Returns a truthy value immediately when buffered data is available.

Optional parameter mode is one of :read, :write, or :read_write.

You must require ‘io/wait’ to use this method.

wait_priority → truthy or falsy click to toggle source
wait_priority(timeout) → truthy or falsy

Waits until IO is priority and returns a truthy value or a falsy value when times out. Priority data is sent and received using the Socket::MSG_OOB flag and is typically limited to streams.

You must require ‘io/wait’ to use this method.

wait_readable → truthy or falsy click to toggle source

wait_writable → truthy or falsy click to toggle source
wait_writable(timeout) → truthy or falsy

Waits until IO is writable and returns a truthy value or a falsy value when times out.
