Function catalyzer::internals::crates::tokio::io::copy

pub async fn copy<'a, R, W>(
    reader: &'a mut R,
    writer: &'a mut W
) -> Result<u64, Error>where
    R: AsyncRead + Unpin + ?Sized,
    W: AsyncWrite + Unpin + ?Sized,

Expand description

Asynchronously copies the entire contents of a reader into a writer.

This function returns a future that will continuously read data from reader and then write it into writer in a streaming fashion until reader returns EOF or fails.

On success, the total number of bytes that were copied from reader to writer is returned.

This is an asynchronous version of std::io::copy.

A heap-allocated copy buffer with 8 KB is created to take data from the reader to the writer, check copy_buf if you want an alternative for AsyncBufRead. You can use copy_buf with BufReader to change the buffer capacity.

§Errors

The returned future will return an error immediately if any call to poll_read or poll_write returns an error.

§Examples

use tokio::io;

let mut reader: &[u8] = b"hello";
let mut writer: Vec<u8> = vec![];

io::copy(&mut reader, &mut writer).await?;

assert_eq!(&b"hello"[..], &writer[..]);
