|
|
This file describes the interface used for reading and writing files in
|
|
Automation 4. This includes text encoding conversion routines.

About encodings
|
|
|
|
All file streams always have a text encoding. The default encoding is
|
|
determined by the user, before the import/export operation is started.
|
|
|
|
All string operations on a stream follow the current encoding. You can
|
|
change the encoding during reading/writing, and the change will only take
|
|
effect from that point on.
|
|
|
|
You can perform binary IO by setting the encoding to 'binary' and using
|
|
strings consisting only of codepoints 0 to 255.

Getting text encoding
|
|
|
|
This function returns a string describing the current text encoding used for
|
|
a file stream.
|
|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.get_encoding(stream)
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Input File Stream or Output File Stream to get the encoding for.
|
|
|
|
Returns: String describing the encoding. This string can be used for setting
|
|
the encoding later.
|
|

|
Setting text encoding
|
|
|
|
This function changes the current text encoding used for a file stream.
|
|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.set_encoding(stream, encoding)
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Input File Stream or Output File Stream to change the encoding for.
|
|
|
|
@encoding (string)
|
|
The new encoding to use.
|
|
|
|
Returns: String describing the old encoding.
|
|

File Pointer operations
|
|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.tell(stream)
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Input File Stream or Output File Stream get position of.
|
|
|
|
Returns: Number, the number of bytes since the beginning of the file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.seek(stream, length)
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Input File Stream or Output File Stream to seek in.
|
|
|
|
@length (number)
|
|
Number of bytes to skip. This can be negative.
|
|
You can only seek backwards in an Output File Stream, and doing so truncates
|
|
the file.
|
|
|
|
Returns: nothing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.reset(stream)
|
|
|
|
Resets the file pointer to the start of the file. Truncates an Output File
|
|
Stream to zero bytes.
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Input File Stream or Output File Stream to seek in.
|
|
|
|
Returns: nothing.

Reading text
|
|
|
|
All these functions assume the file is in the current encoding specified.
|
|
|
|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.skip_utf_bom(stream, change_encoding)
|
|
|
|
This function has undefined behaviour unless called as the first
|
|
read-operation on the stream.
|
|
|
|
It detects whether the file stream starts with an UTF Byte Order Mark, skips
|
|
the number of bytes used by that BOM, and optionally changes the current file
|
|
encoding to match the detected BOM.
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Input File Stream to read from.
|
|
|
|
@change_encoding (boolean)
|
|
If true, change encoding to match the detected BOM.
|
|
|
|
Returns: Boolean, whether a BOM was detected or not.
|
|
|
|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.read(stream, length)
|
|
|
|
Read a number of characters from a file.
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Input File Stream to read from.
|
|
|
|
@length (number)
|
|
Number of characters to read. If this is zero, no data are read. If this
|
|
is larger than the number of characters available, data are read until the
|
|
end of file.
|
|
|
|
Returns: String, the string read from the file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.read_bytes(stream, length)
|
|
|
|
Read a number of bytes from a file and convert to a string.
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Input File Stream to read from.
|
|
|
|
@length (number)
|
|
The number of bytes to read.
|
|
|
|
Returns: String, best-effort converted from the bytes read.
|
|
|
|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.read_line(stream, include_newline)
|
|
|
|
Read until next newline in the file. A newline is defined asone of these
|
|
sequences of Unicode codepoints in the decoded text:
|
|
0x0A ("\n")
|
|
0x0D ("\r")
|
|
0x0D 0x0A ("\r\n")
|
|
The sequence "\n\r" is interpreted as two newlines, ie. a newline, a blank
|
|
line and yet another newline.
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Input File Stream to read from.
|
|
|
|
@include_newline (boolean)
|
|
If true, include the newline character(s) in the returned string.
|
|
|
|
Returns: String.
|

|
|

|

|
|

|
|
|
function aegisub.fstream.write_utf_bom(stream)
|
|
|
|
This function will corrupt your file if used anywhere else than on position 0.
|
|
|
|
Write the correct UTF BOM character to the file, or nothing if not currently
|
|
in an UTF encoding.
|
|
|
|
@stream (user data)
|
|
The Output File Stream to write the BOM to.
|
|
|
|
Returns: nothing.
|
