"io" --- 处理流的核心工具
*************************

**源代码:** Lib/io.py

======================================================================


總覽
====

"io" 模块提供了 Python 用于处理各种 I/O 类型的主要工具。三种主要的 I/O
类型分别为: *文本 I/O*, *二进制 I/O* 和 *原始 I/O*。这些是泛型类型，有
很多种后端存储可以用在他们上面。一个隶属于任何这些类型的具体对象被称作
*file object*。 其他同类的术语还有 *流* 和 *类文件对象*。

独立于其类别，每个具体流对象也将具有各种功能：它可以是只读，只写或读写
。它还可以允许任意随机访问（向前或向后寻找任何位置），或仅允许顺序访问
（例如在套接字或管道的情况下）。

所有流对提供给它们的数据类型都很敏感。例如将 "str" 对象给二进制流的
"write()" 方法会引发 "TypeError"。将 "bytes" 对象提供给文本流的
"write()" 方法也是如此。

3.3 版更變: 由于 "IOError" 现在是 "OSError" 的别名，因此用于引发
"IOError" 的操作现在会引发 "OSError" 。


文本 I/O
--------

文本I/O预期并生成 "str" 对象。这意味着，无论何时后台存储是由字节组成的
（例如在文件的情况下），数据的编码和解码都是透明的，并且可以选择转换特
定于平台的换行符。

创建文本流的最简单方法是使用 "open()"，可以选择指定编码：

   f = open("myfile.txt", "r", encoding="utf-8")

内存中文本流也可以作为 "StringIO" 对象使用：

   f = io.StringIO("some initial text data")

"TextIOBase" 的文档中详细描述了文本流的API


二进制 I/O
----------

二进制I/O（也称为缓冲I/O）预期 *bytes-like objects* 并生成  "bytes" 对
象。不执行编码、解码或换行转换。这种类型的流可以用于所有类型的非文本数
据，并且还可以在需要手动控制文本数据的处理时使用。

创建二进制流的最简单方法是使用 "open()"，并在模式字符串中指定 "'b'" ：

   f = open("myfile.jpg", "rb")

内存中二进制流也可以作为 "BytesIO" 对象使用：

   f = io.BytesIO(b"some initial binary data: \x00\x01")

"BufferedIOBase" 的文档中详细描述了二进制流的API

其他库模块可以提供额外的方式来创建文本或二进制流。参见
"socket.socket.makefile()" 的示例。


原始 I/O
--------

原始 I/O（也称为 *非缓冲 I/O*）通常用作二进制和文本流的低级构建块。用
户代码直接操作原始流的用法非常罕见。不过，可以通过在禁用缓冲的情况下以
二进制模式打开文件来创建原始流：

   f = open("myfile.jpg", "rb", buffering=0)

"RawIOBase" 的文档中详细描述了原始流的API


高阶模块接口
============

io.DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE

   包含模块缓冲I/O类使用的默认缓冲区大小的整数。（如果可能） "open()"
   将使用文件的blksize（由 "os.stat()" 获得）。

io.open(file, mode='r', buffering=-1, encoding=None, errors=None, newline=None, closefd=True, opener=None)

   这是内置的 "open()" 函数的别名。

   引发一个 审计事件 "open" 附带参数 "path"、"mode"、"flags"。

io.open_code(path)

   以 "'rb'" 模式打开提供的文件。如果目的是将其做为可执行代码，则应使
   用此函数。

   "path" 应当是绝对路径。

   此函数的行为可能会被先前对 "PyFile_SetOpenCodeHook()" 的调用所覆盖
   ，但是，应该始终认为它与 "open(path, 'rb')" 可相互替换。重写行为是
   为了对文件进行额外的验证或预处理。

   3.8 版新加入.

exception io.BlockingIOError

   这是内置的 "BlockingIOError" 异常的兼容性别名。

exception io.UnsupportedOperation

   在流上调用不支持的操作时引发的继承 "OSError" 和 "ValueError" 的异常
   。


内存中的流
----------

也可以使用 "str" 或 *bytes-like object* 作为文件进行读取和写入。对于字
符串， "StringIO" 可以像在文本模式下打开的文件一样使用。 "BytesIO" 可
以像以二进制模式打开的文件一样使用。两者都提供完整的随机读写功能。

也參考:

  "sys"
     包含标准IO流: "sys.stdin", "sys.stdout" 和 "sys.stderr" 。


类的层次结构
============

I/O 流被安排为按类的层次结构实现。 首先是 *抽象基类* (ABC)，用于指定流
的各种类别，然后是提供标准流实现的具体类。

   備註:

     抽象基类还提供某些方法的默认实现，以帮助实现具体的流类。例如
     "BufferedIOBase" 提供了 "readinto()" 和 "readline()" 的未优化实现
     。

I/O层次结构的顶部是抽象基类 "IOBase" 。它定义了流的基本接口。但是请注
意，对流的读取和写入之间没有分离。如果实现不支持指定的操作，则会引发
"UnsupportedOperation" 。

抽象基类 "RawIOBase" 是 "IOBase" 的子类。它负责将字节读取和写入流中。
"RawIOBase" 的子类 "FileIO" 提供计算机文件系统中文件的接口。

The "BufferedIOBase" ABC extends "IOBase".  It deals with buffering on
a raw binary stream ("RawIOBase").  Its subclasses, "BufferedWriter",
"BufferedReader", and "BufferedRWPair" buffer raw binary streams that
are readable, writable, and both readable and writable, respectively.
"BufferedRandom" provides a buffered interface to seekable streams.
Another "BufferedIOBase" subclass, "BytesIO", is a stream of in-memory
bytes.

The "TextIOBase" ABC extends "IOBase".  It deals with streams whose
bytes represent text, and handles encoding and decoding to and from
strings.  "TextIOWrapper", which extends "TextIOBase", is a buffered
text interface to a buffered raw stream ("BufferedIOBase").  Finally,
"StringIO" is an in-memory stream for text.

参数名不是规范的一部分，只有 "open()" 的参数才用作关键字参数。

下表总结了抽象基类提供的 "io" 模块：

I/O 基类
--------

class io.IOBase

   所有 I/O 类的抽象基类，作用于字节流。没有公共构造函数。

   此类为许多方法提供了空的抽象实现，派生类可以有选择地重写。默认实现
   代表一个无法读取、写入或查找的文件。

   尽管 "IOBase" 没有声明 "read()" 或 "write()" ，因为它们的签名会有所
   不同，但是实现和客户端应该将这些方法视为接口的一部分。此外，当调用
   不支持的操作时可能会引发 "ValueError" （或 "UnsupportedOperation"
   ）。

   从文件读取或写入文件的二进制数据的基本类型为 "bytes" 。其他 *bytes-
   like objects* 也可以作为方法参数。文本I/O类使用 "str" 数据。

   请注意，在关闭的流上调用任何方法（甚至查询）都是未定义的（undefined
   ）。在这种情况下，实现可能会引发 "ValueError" 。

   "IOBase" （及其子类）支持迭代器协议，这意味着可以迭代 "IOBase" 对象
   以产生流中的行。根据流是二进制流（产生字节）还是文本流（产生字符串
   ），行的定义略有不同。请参见下面的 "readline()" 。

   "IOBase" 也是一个上下文管理器，因此支持 "with" 语句。 在这个示例中
   ，*file* 将在 "with" 语句块执行完成之后被关闭 --- 即使是发生了异常:

      with open('spam.txt', 'w') as file:
          file.write('Spam and eggs!')

   "IOBase" 提供以下数据属性和方法：

   close()

      刷新并关闭此流。如果文件已经关闭，则此方法无效。文件关闭后，对文
      件的任何操作（例如读取或写入）都会引发 "ValueError" 。

      为方便起见，允许多次调用此方法。但是，只有第一个调用才会生效。

   closed

      如果流已关闭，则返回 True。

   fileno()

      返回流的底层文件描述符（整数）---如果存在。如果 IO 对象不使用文
      件描述符，则会引发 "OSError" 。

   flush()

      刷新流的写入缓冲区（如果适用）。这对只读和非阻塞流不起作用。

   isatty()

      如果流是交互式的（即连接到终端/tty设备），则返回 "True" 。

   readable()

      如果可以读取流，则返回 "True" 。否则为 "False" ，且 "read()" 将
      引发 "OSError" 错误。

   readline(size=-1)

      Read and return one line from the stream.  If *size* is
      specified, at most *size* bytes will be read.

      The line terminator is always "b'\n'" for binary files; for text
      files, the *newline* argument to "open()" can be used to select
      the line terminator(s) recognized.

   readlines(hint=-1)

      Read and return a list of lines from the stream.  *hint* can be
      specified to control the number of lines read: no more lines
      will be read if the total size (in bytes/characters) of all
      lines so far exceeds *hint*.

      Note that it's already possible to iterate on file objects using
      "for line in file: ..." without calling "file.readlines()".

   seek(offset, whence=SEEK_SET)

      Change the stream position to the given byte *offset*.  *offset*
      is interpreted relative to the position indicated by *whence*.
      The default value for *whence* is "SEEK_SET".  Values for
      *whence* are:

      * "SEEK_SET" or "0" -- start of the stream (the default);
        *offset* should be zero or positive

      * "SEEK_CUR" or "1" -- current stream position; *offset* may be
        negative

      * "SEEK_END" or "2" -- end of the stream; *offset* is usually
        negative

      返回新的绝对位置。

      3.1 版新加入: "SEEK_*" 常量.

      3.3 版新加入: Some operating systems could support additional
      values, like "os.SEEK_HOLE" or "os.SEEK_DATA". The valid values
      for a file could depend on it being open in text or binary mode.

   seekable()

      Return "True" if the stream supports random access.  If "False",
      "seek()", "tell()" and "truncate()" will raise "OSError".

   tell()

      返回当前流的位置。

   truncate(size=None)

      Resize the stream to the given *size* in bytes (or the current
      position if *size* is not specified).  The current stream
      position isn't changed. This resizing can extend or reduce the
      current file size.  In case of extension, the contents of the
      new file area depend on the platform (on most systems,
      additional bytes are zero-filled).  The new file size is
      returned.

      3.5 版更變: 现在Windows在扩展时将文件填充为零。

   writable()

      Return "True" if the stream supports writing.  If "False",
      "write()" and "truncate()" will raise "OSError".

   writelines(lines)

      Write a list of lines to the stream.  Line separators are not
      added, so it is usual for each of the lines provided to have a
      line separator at the end.

   __del__()

      Prepare for object destruction. "IOBase" provides a default
      implementation of this method that calls the instance's
      "close()" method.

class io.RawIOBase

   Base class for raw binary streams.  It inherits "IOBase".  There is
   no public constructor.

   Raw binary streams typically provide low-level access to an
   underlying OS device or API, and do not try to encapsulate it in
   high-level primitives (this functionality is done at a higher-level
   in buffered binary streams and text streams, described later in
   this page).

   "RawIOBase" provides these methods in addition to those from
   "IOBase":

   read(size=-1)

      Read up to *size* bytes from the object and return them.  As a
      convenience, if *size* is unspecified or -1, all bytes until EOF
      are returned. Otherwise, only one system call is ever made.
      Fewer than *size* bytes may be returned if the operating system
      call returns fewer than *size* bytes.

      If 0 bytes are returned, and *size* was not 0, this indicates
      end of file. If the object is in non-blocking mode and no bytes
      are available, "None" is returned.

      The default implementation defers to "readall()" and
      "readinto()".

   readall()

      Read and return all the bytes from the stream until EOF, using
      multiple calls to the stream if necessary.

   readinto(b)

      Read bytes into a pre-allocated, writable *bytes-like object*
      *b*, and return the number of bytes read.  For example, *b*
      might be a "bytearray". If the object is in non-blocking mode
      and no bytes are available, "None" is returned.

   write(b)

      Write the given *bytes-like object*, *b*, to the underlying raw
      stream, and return the number of bytes written.  This can be
      less than the length of *b* in bytes, depending on specifics of
      the underlying raw stream, and especially if it is in non-
      blocking mode.  "None" is returned if the raw stream is set not
      to block and no single byte could be readily written to it.  The
      caller may release or mutate *b* after this method returns, so
      the implementation should only access *b* during the method
      call.

class io.BufferedIOBase

   Base class for binary streams that support some kind of buffering.
   It inherits "IOBase". There is no public constructor.

   The main difference with "RawIOBase" is that methods "read()",
   "readinto()" and "write()" will try (respectively) to read as much
   input as requested or to consume all given output, at the expense
   of making perhaps more than one system call.

   In addition, those methods can raise "BlockingIOError" if the
   underlying raw stream is in non-blocking mode and cannot take or
   give enough data; unlike their "RawIOBase" counterparts, they will
   never return "None".

   Besides, the "read()" method does not have a default implementation
   that defers to "readinto()".

   A typical "BufferedIOBase" implementation should not inherit from a
   "RawIOBase" implementation, but wrap one, like "BufferedWriter" and
   "BufferedReader" do.

   "BufferedIOBase" provides or overrides these data attributes and
   methods in addition to those from "IOBase":

   raw

      The underlying raw stream (a "RawIOBase" instance) that
      "BufferedIOBase" deals with.  This is not part of the
      "BufferedIOBase" API and may not exist on some implementations.

   detach()

      Separate the underlying raw stream from the buffer and return
      it.

      After the raw stream has been detached, the buffer is in an
      unusable state.

      Some buffers, like "BytesIO", do not have the concept of a
      single raw stream to return from this method.  They raise
      "UnsupportedOperation".

      3.1 版新加入.

   read(size=-1)

      Read and return up to *size* bytes.  If the argument is omitted,
      "None", or negative, data is read and returned until EOF is
      reached.  An empty "bytes" object is returned if the stream is
      already at EOF.

      If the argument is positive, and the underlying raw stream is
      not interactive, multiple raw reads may be issued to satisfy the
      byte count (unless EOF is reached first).  But for interactive
      raw streams, at most one raw read will be issued, and a short
      result does not imply that EOF is imminent.

      A "BlockingIOError" is raised if the underlying raw stream is in
      non blocking-mode, and has no data available at the moment.

   read1([size])

      Read and return up to *size* bytes, with at most one call to the
      underlying raw stream's "read()" (or "readinto()") method.  This
      can be useful if you are implementing your own buffering on top
      of a "BufferedIOBase" object.

      If *size* is "-1" (the default), an arbitrary number of bytes
      are returned (more than zero unless EOF is reached).

   readinto(b)

      Read bytes into a pre-allocated, writable *bytes-like object*
      *b* and return the number of bytes read. For example, *b* might
      be a "bytearray".

      Like "read()", multiple reads may be issued to the underlying
      raw stream, unless the latter is interactive.

      A "BlockingIOError" is raised if the underlying raw stream is in
      non blocking-mode, and has no data available at the moment.

   readinto1(b)

      Read bytes into a pre-allocated, writable *bytes-like object*
      *b*, using at most one call to the underlying raw stream's
      "read()" (or "readinto()") method. Return the number of bytes
      read.

      A "BlockingIOError" is raised if the underlying raw stream is in
      non blocking-mode, and has no data available at the moment.

      3.5 版新加入.

   write(b)

      Write the given *bytes-like object*, *b*, and return the number
      of bytes written (always equal to the length of *b* in bytes,
      since if the write fails an "OSError" will be raised).
      Depending on the actual implementation, these bytes may be
      readily written to the underlying stream, or held in a buffer
      for performance and latency reasons.

      When in non-blocking mode, a "BlockingIOError" is raised if the
      data needed to be written to the raw stream but it couldn't
      accept all the data without blocking.

      The caller may release or mutate *b* after this method returns,
      so the implementation should only access *b* during the method
      call.


原始文件 I/O
------------

class io.FileIO(name, mode='r', closefd=True, opener=None)

   A raw binary stream representing an OS-level file containing bytes
   data.  It inherits "RawIOBase".

   *name* 可以是以下两项之一：

   * a character string or "bytes" object representing the path to the
     file which will be opened. In this case closefd must be "True"
     (the default) otherwise an error will be raised.

   * an integer representing the number of an existing OS-level file
     descriptor to which the resulting "FileIO" object will give
     access. When the FileIO object is closed this fd will be closed
     as well, unless *closefd* is set to "False".

   The *mode* can be "'r'", "'w'", "'x'" or "'a'" for reading
   (default), writing, exclusive creation or appending. The file will
   be created if it doesn't exist when opened for writing or
   appending; it will be truncated when opened for writing.
   "FileExistsError" will be raised if it already exists when opened
   for creating. Opening a file for creating implies writing, so this
   mode behaves in a similar way to "'w'". Add a "'+'" to the mode to
   allow simultaneous reading and writing.

   The "read()" (when called with a positive argument), "readinto()"
   and "write()" methods on this class will only make one system call.

   A custom opener can be used by passing a callable as *opener*. The
   underlying file descriptor for the file object is then obtained by
   calling *opener* with (*name*, *flags*). *opener* must return an
   open file descriptor (passing "os.open" as *opener* results in
   functionality similar to passing "None").

   新创建的文件是 不可继承的。

   有关 opener 参数的示例，请参见内置函数 "open()" 。

   3.3 版更變: 增加了 *opener* 参数。增加了 "'x'" 模式。

   3.4 版更變: 文件现在禁止继承。

   "FileIO" provides these data attributes in addition to those from
   "RawIOBase" and "IOBase":

   mode

      构造函数中给定的模式。

   name

      文件名。当构造函数中没有给定名称时，这是文件的文件描述符。


缓冲流
------

Buffered I/O streams provide a higher-level interface to an I/O device
than raw I/O does.

class io.BytesIO([initial_bytes])

   A binary stream using an in-memory bytes buffer.  It inherits
   "BufferedIOBase".  The buffer is discarded when the "close()"
   method is called.

   The optional argument *initial_bytes* is a *bytes-like object* that
   contains initial data.

   "BytesIO" provides or overrides these methods in addition to those
   from "BufferedIOBase" and "IOBase":

   getbuffer()

      Return a readable and writable view over the contents of the
      buffer without copying them.  Also, mutating the view will
      transparently update the contents of the buffer:

         >>> b = io.BytesIO(b"abcdef")
         >>> view = b.getbuffer()
         >>> view[2:4] = b"56"
         >>> b.getvalue()
         b'ab56ef'

      備註:

        As long as the view exists, the "BytesIO" object cannot be
        resized or closed.

      3.2 版新加入.

   getvalue()

      Return "bytes" containing the entire contents of the buffer.

   read1([size])

      在 "BytesIO" 中，这与 "read()" 相同。

      3.7 版更變: *size* 参数现在是可选的。

   readinto1(b)

      在 "BytesIO" 中，这与 "readinto()" 相同。

      3.5 版新加入.

class io.BufferedReader(raw, buffer_size=DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE)

   A buffered binary stream providing higher-level access to a
   readable, non seekable "RawIOBase" raw binary stream.  It inherits
   "BufferedIOBase".

   When reading data from this object, a larger amount of data may be
   requested from the underlying raw stream, and kept in an internal
   buffer. The buffered data can then be returned directly on
   subsequent reads.

   The constructor creates a "BufferedReader" for the given readable
   *raw* stream and *buffer_size*.  If *buffer_size* is omitted,
   "DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE" is used.

   "BufferedReader" provides or overrides these methods in addition to
   those from "BufferedIOBase" and "IOBase":

   peek([size])

      Return bytes from the stream without advancing the position.  At
      most one single read on the raw stream is done to satisfy the
      call. The number of bytes returned may be less or more than
      requested.

   read([size])

      Read and return *size* bytes, or if *size* is not given or
      negative, until EOF or if the read call would block in non-
      blocking mode.

   read1([size])

      Read and return up to *size* bytes with only one call on the raw
      stream. If at least one byte is buffered, only buffered bytes
      are returned. Otherwise, one raw stream read call is made.

      3.7 版更變: *size* 参数现在是可选的。

class io.BufferedWriter(raw, buffer_size=DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE)

   A buffered binary stream providing higher-level access to a
   writeable, non seekable "RawIOBase" raw binary stream.  It inherits
   "BufferedIOBase".

   When writing to this object, data is normally placed into an
   internal buffer.  The buffer will be written out to the underlying
   "RawIOBase" object under various conditions, including:

   * 当缓冲区对于所有挂起数据而言太小时；

   * 当 "flush()" 被调用时

   * when a "seek()" is requested (for "BufferedRandom" objects);

   * when the "BufferedWriter" object is closed or destroyed.

   The constructor creates a "BufferedWriter" for the given writeable
   *raw* stream.  If the *buffer_size* is not given, it defaults to
   "DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE".

   "BufferedWriter" provides or overrides these methods in addition to
   those from "BufferedIOBase" and "IOBase":

   flush()

      Force bytes held in the buffer into the raw stream.  A
      "BlockingIOError" should be raised if the raw stream blocks.

   write(b)

      Write the *bytes-like object*, *b*, and return the number of
      bytes written.  When in non-blocking mode, a "BlockingIOError"
      is raised if the buffer needs to be written out but the raw
      stream blocks.

class io.BufferedRandom(raw, buffer_size=DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE)

   A buffered binary stream providing higher-level access to a
   seekable "RawIOBase" raw binary stream.  It inherits
   "BufferedReader" and "BufferedWriter".

   The constructor creates a reader and writer for a seekable raw
   stream, given in the first argument.  If the *buffer_size* is
   omitted it defaults to "DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE".

   "BufferedRandom" is capable of anything "BufferedReader" or
   "BufferedWriter" can do.  In addition, "seek()" and "tell()" are
   guaranteed to be implemented.

class io.BufferedRWPair(reader, writer, buffer_size=DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE)

   A buffered binary stream providing higher-level access to two non
   seekable "RawIOBase" raw binary streams---one readable, the other
   writeable. It inherits "BufferedIOBase".

   *reader* and *writer* are "RawIOBase" objects that are readable and
   writeable respectively.  If the *buffer_size* is omitted it
   defaults to "DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE".

   "BufferedRWPair" implements all of "BufferedIOBase"'s methods
   except for "detach()", which raises "UnsupportedOperation".

   警告:

     "BufferedRWPair" does not attempt to synchronize accesses to its
     underlying raw streams.  You should not pass it the same object
     as reader and writer; use "BufferedRandom" instead.


文本 I/O
--------

class io.TextIOBase

   Base class for text streams.  This class provides a character and
   line based interface to stream I/O.  It inherits "IOBase".  There
   is no public constructor.

   "TextIOBase" provides or overrides these data attributes and
   methods in addition to those from "IOBase":

   encoding

      The name of the encoding used to decode the stream's bytes into
      strings, and to encode strings into bytes.

   errors

      解码器或编码器的错误设置。

   newlines

      A string, a tuple of strings, or "None", indicating the newlines
      translated so far.  Depending on the implementation and the
      initial constructor flags, this may not be available.

   buffer

      The underlying binary buffer (a "BufferedIOBase" instance) that
      "TextIOBase" deals with.  This is not part of the "TextIOBase"
      API and may not exist in some implementations.

   detach()

      Separate the underlying binary buffer from the "TextIOBase" and
      return it.

      After the underlying buffer has been detached, the "TextIOBase"
      is in an unusable state.

      Some "TextIOBase" implementations, like "StringIO", may not have
      the concept of an underlying buffer and calling this method will
      raise "UnsupportedOperation".

      3.1 版新加入.

   read(size=-1)

      Read and return at most *size* characters from the stream as a
      single "str".  If *size* is negative or "None", reads until EOF.

   readline(size=-1)

      Read until newline or EOF and return a single "str".  If the
      stream is already at EOF, an empty string is returned.

      如果指定了 *size* ，最多将读取 *size* 个字符。

   seek(offset, whence=SEEK_SET)

      Change the stream position to the given *offset*.  Behaviour
      depends on the *whence* parameter.  The default value for
      *whence* is "SEEK_SET".

      * "SEEK_SET" or "0": seek from the start of the stream (the
        default); *offset* must either be a number returned by
        "TextIOBase.tell()", or zero.  Any other *offset* value
        produces undefined behaviour.

      * "SEEK_CUR" or "1": "seek" to the current position; *offset*
        must be zero, which is a no-operation (all other values are
        unsupported).

      * "SEEK_END" or "2": seek to the end of the stream; *offset*
        must be zero (all other values are unsupported).

      Return the new absolute position as an opaque number.

      3.1 版新加入: "SEEK_*" 常量.

   tell()

      Return the current stream position as an opaque number.  The
      number does not usually represent a number of bytes in the
      underlying binary storage.

   write(s)

      Write the string *s* to the stream and return the number of
      characters written.

class io.TextIOWrapper(buffer, encoding=None, errors=None, newline=None, line_buffering=False, write_through=False)

   A buffered text stream providing higher-level access to a
   "BufferedIOBase" buffered binary stream.  It inherits "TextIOBase".

   *encoding* gives the name of the encoding that the stream will be
   decoded or encoded with.  It defaults to
   "locale.getpreferredencoding(False)".

   *errors* is an optional string that specifies how encoding and
   decoding errors are to be handled.  Pass "'strict'" to raise a
   "ValueError" exception if there is an encoding error (the default
   of "None" has the same effect), or pass "'ignore'" to ignore
   errors.  (Note that ignoring encoding errors can lead to data
   loss.)  "'replace'" causes a replacement marker (such as "'?'") to
   be inserted where there is malformed data. "'backslashreplace'"
   causes malformed data to be replaced by a backslashed escape
   sequence.  When writing, "'xmlcharrefreplace'" (replace with the
   appropriate XML character reference)  or "'namereplace'" (replace
   with "\N{...}" escape sequences) can be used.  Any other error
   handling name that has been registered with
   "codecs.register_error()" is also valid.

   *newline* controls how line endings are handled.  It can be "None",
   "''", "'\n'", "'\r'", and "'\r\n'".  It works as follows:

   * When reading input from the stream, if *newline* is "None",
     *universal newlines* mode is enabled.  Lines in the input can end
     in "'\n'", "'\r'", or "'\r\n'", and these are translated into
     "'\n'" before being returned to the caller.  If *newline* is
     "''", universal newlines mode is enabled, but line endings are
     returned to the caller untranslated.  If *newline* has any of the
     other legal values, input lines are only terminated by the given
     string, and the line ending is returned to the caller
     untranslated.

   * 将输出写入流时，如果 *newline* 为 "None"，则写入的任何 "'\n'" 字
     符都将转换为系统默认行分隔符 "os.linesep"。如果 *newline* 是 "''"
     或 "'\n'"，则不进行翻译。如果 *newline* 是任何其他合法值，则写入
     的任何 "'\n'" 字符将被转换为给定的字符串。

   If *line_buffering* is "True", "flush()" is implied when a call to
   write contains a newline character or a carriage return.

   If *write_through* is "True", calls to "write()" are guaranteed not
   to be buffered: any data written on the "TextIOWrapper" object is
   immediately handled to its underlying binary *buffer*.

   3.3 版更變: 已添加 *write_through* 参数

   3.3 版更變: The default *encoding* is now
   "locale.getpreferredencoding(False)" instead of
   "locale.getpreferredencoding()". Don't change temporary the locale
   encoding using "locale.setlocale()", use the current locale
   encoding instead of the user preferred encoding.

   "TextIOWrapper" provides these data attributes and methods in
   addition to those from "TextIOBase" and "IOBase":

   line_buffering

      是否启用行缓冲。

   write_through

      Whether writes are passed immediately to the underlying binary
      buffer.

      3.7 版新加入.

   reconfigure(*[, encoding][, errors][, newline][,                      line_buffering][, write_through])

      Reconfigure this text stream using new settings for *encoding*,
      *errors*, *newline*, *line_buffering* and *write_through*.

      Parameters not specified keep current settings, except
      "errors='strict'" is used when *encoding* is specified but
      *errors* is not specified.

      It is not possible to change the encoding or newline if some
      data has already been read from the stream. On the other hand,
      changing encoding after write is possible.

      This method does an implicit stream flush before setting the new
      parameters.

      3.7 版新加入.

class io.StringIO(initial_value='', newline='\n')

   A text stream using an in-memory text buffer.  It inherits
   "TextIOBase".

   The text buffer is discarded when the "close()" method is called.

   The initial value of the buffer can be set by providing
   *initial_value*. If newline translation is enabled, newlines will
   be encoded as if by "write()".  The stream is positioned at the
   start of the buffer.

   The *newline* argument works like that of "TextIOWrapper", except
   that when writing output to the stream, if *newline* is "None",
   newlines are written as "\n" on all platforms.

   "StringIO" provides this method in addition to those from
   "TextIOBase" and "IOBase":

   getvalue()

      Return a "str" containing the entire contents of the buffer.
      Newlines are decoded as if by "read()", although the stream
      position is not changed.

   用法示例：

      import io

      output = io.StringIO()
      output.write('First line.\n')
      print('Second line.', file=output)

      # Retrieve file contents -- this will be
      # 'First line.\nSecond line.\n'
      contents = output.getvalue()

      # Close object and discard memory buffer --
      # .getvalue() will now raise an exception.
      output.close()

class io.IncrementalNewlineDecoder

   A helper codec that decodes newlines for *universal newlines* mode.
   It inherits "codecs.IncrementalDecoder".


性能
====

本节讨论所提供的具体 I/O 实现的性能。


二进制 I/O
----------

即使在用户请求单个字节时，也只读取和写入大块数据。通过该方法，缓冲 I/O
隐藏了操作系统调用和执行无缓冲 I/O 例程时的任何低效性。增益取决于操作
系统和执行的 I/O 类型。例如，在某些现代操作系统上（例如 Linux），无缓
冲磁盘 I/O 可以与缓冲 I/O 一样快。但最重要的是，无论平台和支持设备如何
，缓冲 I/O 都能提供可预测的性能。因此，对于二进制数据，应首选使用缓冲
的 I/O 而不是未缓冲的 I/O 。


文本 I/O
--------

二进制存储（如文件）上的文本 I/O 比同一存储上的二进制 I/O 慢得多，因为
它需要使用字符编解码器在Unicode和二进制数据之间进行转换。这在处理大量
文本数据（如大型日志文件）时会变得非常明显。此外，由于使用的重构算法
"TextIOWrapper.tell()" 和 "TextIOWrapper.seek()" 都相当慢。

"StringIO" 是原生的内存 Unicode 容器，速度与 "BytesIO" 相似。


多线程
------

"FileIO" 对象是线程安全的，只要它们封装的操作系统调用（比如Unix下的
"read(2)" ）也是线程安全的。

二进制缓冲对象（例如 "BufferedReader", "BufferedWriter",
"BufferedRandom" 和 "BufferedRWPair"）使用锁来保护其内部结构；因此，可
以安全地一次从多个线程中调用它们。

"TextIOWrapper" 对象不再是线程安全的。


可重入性
--------

二进制缓冲对象（ "BufferedReader" ， "BufferedWriter" ，
"BufferedRandom" 和 "BufferedRWPair" 的实例）不是可重入的。虽然在正常
情况下不会发生可重入调用，但仍可能会在 "signal" 处理程序执行 I/O 时产
生。如果线程尝试重入已经访问的缓冲对象，则会引发 "RuntimeError" 。注意
，这并不禁止其他线程进入缓冲对象。

The above implicitly extends to text files, since the "open()"
function will wrap a buffered object inside a "TextIOWrapper".  This
includes standard streams and therefore affects the built-in "print()"
function as well.
