# go-linereader
|
|
|
|
`go-linereader` (Golang package: `linereader`) is a package for Go that
|
|
breaks up the input from an io.Reader into multiple lines. It is
|
|
a lot like `bufio.Scanner`, except you can specify timeouts that will push
|
|
"lines" through after a certain amount of time. This lets you read lines,
|
|
but return any data if a line isn't updated for some time.
|
|
|
|
## Installation and Usage
|
|
|
|
Install using `go get github.com/mitchellh/go-linereader`.
|
|
|
|
Full documentation is available at
|
|
http://godoc.org/github.com/mitchellh/go-linereader
|
|
|
|
Below is an example of its usage ignoring errors:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// Assume r is some set io.Reader. Perhaps a file, network, anything.
|
|
var r io.Reader
|
|
|
|
// Initialize the line reader
|
|
lr := linereader.New(r)
|
|
|
|
// Get all the lines
|
|
for line := <-lr.Ch {
|
|
// Do something with the line. This line will have the line separator
|
|
// removed.
|
|
}
|
|
```
