Lines

Traversing lines in Input or ReadChars

Both Input and ReadChars objects have a method traversing the object one line at a time. The terminator can be autodetected (which assumes the ending is one of \n, \r\n, \r) or it can be explicitely declared, or it can be a custom separator such as ';'.

Note: The lines() method is lazily evaluated so calling the method without processing will not result in any processing of the resource

Lines Defaults

Default behaviour. Autodetect ending assuming one of \n, \r\n or \r. The terminator is not included in results

    import scalax.io._

    val lines = Resource.fromFileString("file").lines()
    println(lines.size)

Lines Auto Include Terminators

Explicitly declare line ending as AutoDetect and include terminator

    import scalax.io._
    import Line.Terminators.Auto

    val lines = Resource.fromFileString("file").lines(Auto(),true)
    println(lines.size)

Lines New Line Terminator

Explicitly declare line ending as NewLine and do not include terminator

    import scalax.io._
    import Line.Terminators.NewLine

    val lines = Resource.fromFileString("file").lines(NewLine,false)
    println(lines.size)

Lines Custom Terminator

Explicitly declare a custom line terminator and do not include terminator

    import scalax.io._
    import Line.Terminators.Custom

    val lines = Resource.fromFileString("file").lines(Custom("**"))
    println(lines.size)
