Waits until IO is writable and returns true or false when times out.
Attempts to convert object into an IO object via method to_io; returns the new IO object if successful, or nil otherwise:
IO.try_convert(STDOUT) # => #<IO:<STDOUT>> IO.try_convert(ARGF) # => #<IO:<STDIN>> IO.try_convert('STDOUT') # => nil
Closes the write end of a duplex I/O stream (i.e., one that contains both a read and a write stream, such as a pipe). Will raise an IOError if the stream is not duplexed.
f = IO.popen("/bin/sh","r+") f.close_write f.print "nowhere"
produces:
prog.rb:3:in `write': not opened for writing (IOError) from prog.rb:3:in `print' from prog.rb:3
Calling this method on closed IO object is just ignored since Ruby 2.3.
Writes the given string to ios using the write(2) system call after O_NONBLOCK is set for the underlying file descriptor.
It returns the number of bytes written.
write_nonblock just calls the write(2) system call. It causes all errors the write(2) system call causes: Errno::EWOULDBLOCK, Errno::EINTR, etc. The result may also be smaller than string.length (partial write). The caller should care such errors and partial write.
If the exception is Errno::EWOULDBLOCK or Errno::EAGAIN, it is extended by IO::WaitWritable. So IO::WaitWritable can be used to rescue the exceptions for retrying write_nonblock.
# Creates a pipe. r, w = IO.pipe # write_nonblock writes only 65536 bytes and return 65536. # (The pipe size is 65536 bytes on this environment.) s = "a" * 100000 p w.write_nonblock(s) #=> 65536 # write_nonblock cannot write a byte and raise EWOULDBLOCK (EAGAIN). p w.write_nonblock("b") # Resource temporarily unavailable (Errno::EAGAIN)
If the write buffer is not empty, it is flushed at first.
When write_nonblock raises an exception kind of IO::WaitWritable, write_nonblock should not be called until io is writable for avoiding busy loop. This can be done as follows.
begin result = io.write_nonblock(string) rescue IO::WaitWritable, Errno::EINTR IO.select(nil, [io]) retry end
Note that this doesn’t guarantee to write all data in string. The length written is reported as result and it should be checked later.
On some platforms such as Windows, write_nonblock is not supported according to the kind of the IO object. In such cases, write_nonblock raises Errno::EBADF.
By specifying a keyword argument exception to false, you can indicate that write_nonblock should not raise an IO::WaitWritable exception, but return the symbol :wait_writable instead.
The first form returns the MatchData object generated by the last successful pattern match. Equivalent to reading the special global variable $~ (see Special global variables in Regexp for details).
The second form returns the nth field in this MatchData object. n can be a string or symbol to reference a named capture.
Note that the last_match is local to the thread and method scope of the method that did the pattern match.
/c(.)t/ =~ 'cat' #=> 0 Regexp.last_match #=> #<MatchData "cat" 1:"a"> Regexp.last_match(0) #=> "cat" Regexp.last_match(1) #=> "a" Regexp.last_match(2) #=> nil /(?<lhs>\w+)\s*=\s*(?<rhs>\w+)/ =~ "var = val" Regexp.last_match #=> #<MatchData "var = val" lhs:"var" rhs:"val"> Regexp.last_match(:lhs) #=> "var" Regexp.last_match(:rhs) #=> "val"
Try to convert obj into a Regexp, using to_regexp method. Returns converted regexp or nil if obj cannot be converted for any reason.
Regexp.try_convert(/re/) #=> /re/ Regexp.try_convert("re") #=> nil o = Object.new Regexp.try_convert(o) #=> nil def o.to_regexp() /foo/ end Regexp.try_convert(o) #=> /foo/
Returns true if sym starts with one of the prefixes given. Each of the prefixes should be a String or a Regexp.
:hello.start_with?("hell") #=> true :hello.start_with?(/H/i) #=> true # returns true if one of the prefixes matches. :hello.start_with?("heaven", "hell") #=> true :hello.start_with?("heaven", "paradise") #=> false
Iterates over the entries (files and subdirectories) in the directory, yielding a Pathname object for each entry.
Disallows further write using shutdown system call.
UNIXSocket.pair {|s1, s2| s1.print "ping" s1.close_write p s2.read #=> "ping" s2.print "pong" s2.close p s1.read #=> "pong" }
creates an Addrinfo object from the arguments.
The arguments are interpreted as similar to self.
Addrinfo.tcp("0.0.0.0", 4649).family_addrinfo("www.ruby-lang.org", 80) #=> #<Addrinfo: 221.186.184.68:80 TCP (www.ruby-lang.org:80)> Addrinfo.unix("/tmp/sock").family_addrinfo("/tmp/sock2") #=> #<Addrinfo: /tmp/sock2 SOCK_STREAM>
Returns the IP address and port number as 2-element array.
Addrinfo.tcp("127.0.0.1", 80).ip_unpack #=> ["127.0.0.1", 80] Addrinfo.tcp("::1", 80).ip_unpack #=> ["::1", 80]
Returns the IP address as a string.
Addrinfo.tcp("127.0.0.1", 80).ip_address #=> "127.0.0.1" Addrinfo.tcp("::1", 80).ip_address #=> "::1"
Returns the port number as an integer.
Addrinfo.tcp("127.0.0.1", 80).ip_port #=> 80 Addrinfo.tcp("::1", 80).ip_port #=> 80
Returns true for IPv4 loopback address (127.0.0.0/8). It returns false otherwise.
Returns true for IPv6 unspecified address (::). It returns false otherwise.
Returns true for IPv6 loopback address (::1). It returns false otherwise.
Returns true for IPv6 link local address (ff80::/10). It returns false otherwise.
Returns true for IPv6 site local address (ffc0::/10). It returns false otherwise.
Returns true for IPv4-mapped IPv6 address (::ffff:0:0/80). It returns false otherwise.
