Member Function Documentation

int StreamFile< FatFile , uint32_t >::available ( )
inlineinherited
Returns
number of bytes available from the current position to EOF or INT_MAX if more than INT_MAX bytes are available.
uint32_t FatFile::available32 ( )
inlineinherited
Returns
The number of bytes available from the current position to EOF for normal files. Zero is returned for directory files.
void FatFile::clearError ( )
inlineinherited

Clear all error bits.

void FatFile::clearWriteError ( )
inlineinherited

uint32_t *  endSector 
)
inherited

Check for contiguous file and return its raw sector range.

Parameters
[out]bgnSectorthe first sector address for the file.
[out]endSectorthe last sector address for the file.
Returns
The value true is returned for success and the value false is returned for failure.
uint32_t FatFile::curPosition ( ) const
inlineinherited
Returns
The current position for a file or directory.
bool FatFile::dirEntry ( dir_t *  dir)
inherited

Return a file's directory entry.

Parameters
[out]dirLocation for return of the file's directory entry.
Returns
The value true is returned for success and the value false is returned for failure.
void FatFile::dmpFile ( print_t *  pr,
uint32_t  pos,
size_t  n 
)
inherited

Dump file in Hex

Parameters
[in]prPrint stream for list.
[in]posStart position in file.
[in]nnumber of locations to dump.
bool FatFile::exists ( const char *  path)
inlineinherited

Test for the existence of a file in a directory

Parameters
[in]pathPath of the file to be tested for.

The calling instance must be an open directory file.

dirFile.exists("TOFIND.TXT") searches for "TOFIND.TXT" in the directory dirFile.

Returns
True if the file exists.
void FatFile::fgetpos ( fspos_t *  pos)
inherited

get position for streams

Parameters
[out]posstruct to receive position
int FatFile::fgets ( char *  str,
int  num,
char *  delim = nullptr 
)
inherited

Get a string from a file.

fgets() reads bytes from a file into the array pointed to by str, until num - 1 bytes are read, or a delimiter is read and transferred to str, or end-of-file is encountered. The string is then terminated with a null byte.

fgets() deletes CR, '\r', from the string. This insures only a '\n' terminates the string for Windows text files which use CRLF for newline.

Parameters
[out]strPointer to the array where the string is stored.
[in]numMaximum number of characters to be read (including the final null byte). Usually the length of the array str is used.
[in]delimOptional set of delimiters. The default is "\n".
Returns
For success fgets() returns the length of the string in str. If no data is read, fgets() returns zero for EOF or -1 if an error occurred.
uint32_t FatFile::fileSize ( ) const
inlineinherited
Returns
The total number of bytes in a file.
void StreamFile< FatFile , uint32_t >::flush ( )
inlineinherited

Ensure that any bytes written to the file are saved to the SD card.

void FatFile::fsetpos ( fspos_t *  pos)
inherited

set position for streams

Parameters
[out]posstruct with value for new position
uint8_t FatFile::getError ( )
inlineinherited
Returns
All error bits.
bool FatFile::getName ( char *  name,
size_t  size 
)
inherited

Get a file's name followed by a zero byte.

Parameters
[out]nameAn array of characters for the file's name.
[in]sizeThe size of the array in bytes. The array must be at least 13 bytes long. The file's name will be truncated if the file's name is too long.
Returns
The value true, is returned for success and the value false, is returned for failure.
bool FatFile::getSFN ( char *  name)
inherited

Get a file's Short File Name followed by a zero byte.

Parameters
[out]nameAn array of characters for the file's name. The array must be at least 13 bytes long.
Returns
The value true, is returned for success and the value false, is returned for failure.

bool FatFile::truncate ( uint32_t  length)
inlineinherited

Truncate a file to a specified length. The current file position will be set to end of file.

Parameters
[in]lengthThe desired length for the file.
Returns
The value true is returned for success and the value false is returned for failure.
size_t StreamFile< FatFile , uint32_t >::write ( uint8_t  b)
inlineinherited

Write a byte to a file. Required by the Arduino Print class.

Parameters
[in]bthe byte to be written. Use getWriteError to check for errors.
Returns
1 for success and 0 for failure.
size_t FatFile::write ( const char *  str)
inlineinherited

Write a string to a file. Used by the Arduino Print class.

Parameters
[in]strPointer to the string. Use getWriteError to check for errors.
Returns
count of characters written for success or -1 for failure.
size_t FatFile::write ( const void *  buf,
size_t  count 
)
inherited

Write data to an open file.

Note
Data is moved to the cache but may not be written to the storage device until sync() is called.
Parameters
[in]bufPointer to the location of the data to be written.
[in]countNumber of bytes to write.
Returns
For success write() returns the number of bytes written, always count. If an error occurs, write() returns -1. Possible errors include write() is called before a file has been opened, write is called for a read-only file, device is full, a corrupt file system or an I/O error.
