1 """Helper class to quickly write a loop over all standard input files.
3 Typical use is:
5 import fileinput
6 for line in fileinput.input():
7 process(line)
9 This iterates over the lines of all files listed in sys.argv[1:],
10 defaulting to sys.stdin if the list is empty. If a filename is '-' it
11 is also replaced by sys.stdin. To specify an alternative list of
12 filenames, pass it as the argument to input(). A single file name is
13 also allowed.
15 Functions filename(), lineno() return the filename and cumulative line
16 number of the line that has just been read; filelineno() returns its
17 line number in the current file; isfirstline() returns true iff the
18 line just read is the first line of its file; isstdin() returns true
19 iff the line was read from sys.stdin. Function nextfile() closes the
20 current file so that the next iteration will read the first line from
21 the next file (if any); lines not read from the file will not count
22 towards the cumulative line count; the filename is not changed until
23 after the first line of the next file has been read. Function close()
24 closes the sequence.
26 Before any lines have been read, filename() returns None and both line
27 numbers are zero; nextfile() has no effect. After all lines have been
28 read, filename() and the line number functions return the values
29 pertaining to the last line read; nextfile() has no effect.
31 All files are opened in text mode by default, you can override this by
32 setting the mode parameter to input() or FileInput.__init__().
33 If an I/O error occurs during opening or reading a file, the IOError
34 exception is raised.
36 If sys.stdin is used more than once, the second and further use will
37 return no lines, except perhaps for interactive use, or if it has been
38 explicitly reset (e.g. using sys.stdin.seek(0)).
40 Empty files are opened and immediately closed; the only time their
41 presence in the list of filenames is noticeable at all is when the
42 last file opened is empty.
44 It is possible that the last line of a file doesn't end in a newline
45 character; otherwise lines are returned including the trailing
46 newline.
48 Class FileInput is the implementation; its methods filename(),
49 lineno(), fileline(), isfirstline(), isstdin(), nextfile() and close()
50 correspond to the functions in the module. In addition it has a
51 readline() method which returns the next input line, and a
52 __getitem__() method which implements the sequence behavior. The
53 sequence must be accessed in strictly sequential order; sequence
54 access and readline() cannot be mixed.
56 Optional in-place filtering: if the keyword argument inplace=1 is
57 passed to input() or to the FileInput constructor, the file is moved
58 to a backup file and standard output is directed to the input file.
59 This makes it possible to write a filter that rewrites its input file
60 in place. If the keyword argument backup=".<some extension>" is also
61 given, it specifies the extension for the backup file, and the backup
62 file remains around; by default, the extension is ".bak" and it is
63 deleted when the output file is closed. In-place filtering is
64 disabled when standard input is read. XXX The current implementation
65 does not work for MS-DOS 8+3 filesystems.
67 Performance: this module is unfortunately one of the slower ways of
68 processing large numbers of input lines. Nevertheless, a significant
69 speed-up has been obtained by using readlines(bufsize) instead of
70 readline(). A new keyword argument, bufsize=N, is present on the
71 input() function and the FileInput() class to override the default
72 buffer size.
74 XXX Possible additions:
76 - optional getopt argument processing
77 - isatty()
78 - read(), read(size), even readlines()
