Trait AsyncWriteExt
trait AsyncWriteExt: AsyncWrite
Writes bytes to a sink.
Implemented as an extension trait, adding utility methods to all
AsyncWrite types. Callers will tend to import this trait instead of
AsyncWrite.
use tokio::io::{self, AsyncWriteExt};
use tokio::fs::File;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
let data = b"some bytes";
let mut pos = 0;
let mut buffer = File::create("foo.txt").await?;
while pos < data.len() {
let bytes_written = buffer.write(&data[pos..]).await?;
pos += bytes_written;
}
Ok(())
}
See [module][crate::io] documentation for more details.
Provided Methods
fn write<'a>(self: &'a mut Self, src: &'a [u8]) -> Write<'a, Self> where Self: UnpinWrites a buffer into this writer, returning how many bytes were written.
Equivalent to:
async fn write(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> io::Result<usize>;This function will attempt to write the entire contents of
buf, but the entire write may not succeed, or the write may also generate an error. A call towriterepresents at most one attempt to write to any wrapped object.Return
If the return value is
Ok(n)then it must be guaranteed thatn <= buf.len(). A return value of0typically means that the underlying object is no longer able to accept bytes and will likely not be able to in the future as well, or that the buffer provided is empty.Errors
Each call to
writemay generate an I/O error indicating that the operation could not be completed. If an error is returned then no bytes in the buffer were written to this writer.It is not considered an error if the entire buffer could not be written to this writer.
Cancel safety
This method is cancellation safe in the sense that if it is used as the event in a
tokio::select!statement and some other branch completes first, then it is guaranteed that no data was written to thisAsyncWrite.Examples
use tokio::io::{self, AsyncWriteExt}; use tokio::fs::File; #[tokio::main] async fn main() -> io::Result<()> { let mut file = File::create("foo.txt").await?; // Writes some prefix of the byte string, not necessarily all of it. file.write(b"some bytes").await?; file.flush().await?; Ok(()) }fn write_vectored<'a, 'b>(self: &'a mut Self, bufs: &'a [IoSlice<'b>]) -> WriteVectored<'a, 'b, Self> where Self: UnpinLike
write, except that it writes from a slice of buffers.Equivalent to:
async fn write_vectored(&mut self, bufs: &[IoSlice<'_>]) -> io::Result<usize>;See
AsyncWrite::poll_write_vectoredfor more details.Cancel safety
This method is cancellation safe in the sense that if it is used as the event in a
tokio::select!statement and some other branch completes first, then it is guaranteed that no data was written to thisAsyncWrite.Examples
use tokio::io::{self, AsyncWriteExt}; use tokio::fs::File; use std::io::IoSlice; #[tokio::main] async fn main() -> io::Result<()> { let mut file = File::create("foo.txt").await?; let bufs: &[_] = &[ IoSlice::new(b"hello"), IoSlice::new(b" "), IoSlice::new(b"world"), ]; file.write_vectored(&bufs).await?; file.flush().await?; Ok(()) }fn write_buf<'a, B>(self: &'a mut Self, src: &'a mut B) -> WriteBuf<'a, Self, B> where Self: Sized + Unpin, B: BufWrites a buffer into this writer, advancing the buffer's internal cursor.
Equivalent to:
async fn write_buf<B: Buf>(&mut self, buf: &mut B) -> io::Result<usize>;This function will attempt to write the entire contents of
buf, but the entire write may not succeed, or the write may also generate an error. After the operation completes, the buffer's internal cursor is advanced by the number of bytes written. A subsequent call towrite_bufusing the samebufvalue will resume from the point that the first call towrite_bufcompleted. A call towrite_bufrepresents at most one attempt to write to any wrapped object.Return
If the return value is
Ok(n)then it must be guaranteed thatn <= buf.len(). A return value of0typically means that the underlying object is no longer able to accept bytes and will likely not be able to in the future as well, or that the buffer provided is empty.Errors
Each call to
writemay generate an I/O error indicating that the operation could not be completed. If an error is returned then no bytes in the buffer were written to this writer.It is not considered an error if the entire buffer could not be written to this writer.
Cancel safety
This method is cancellation safe in the sense that if it is used as the event in a
tokio::select!statement and some other branch completes first, then it is guaranteed that no data was written to thisAsyncWrite.Examples
FileimplementsAsyncWriteandCursor<&[u8]>implementsBuf:use tokio::io::{self, AsyncWriteExt}; use tokio::fs::File; use bytes::Buf; use std::io::Cursor; #[tokio::main] async fn main() -> io::Result<()> { let mut file = File::create("foo.txt").await?; let mut buffer = Cursor::new(b"data to write"); // Loop until the entire contents of the buffer are written to // the file. while buffer.has_remaining() { // Writes some prefix of the byte string, not necessarily // all of it. file.write_buf(&mut buffer).await?; } file.flush().await?; Ok(()) }fn write_all_buf<'a, B>(self: &'a mut Self, src: &'a mut B) -> WriteAllBuf<'a, Self, B> where Self: Sized + Unpin, B: BufAttempts to write an entire buffer into this writer.
Equivalent to:
async fn write_all_buf(&mut self, buf: impl Buf) -> Result<(), io::Error> { while buf.has_remaining() { self.write_buf(&mut buf).await?; } Ok(()) }This method will continuously call
writeuntilbuf.has_remaining()returns false. This method will not return until the entire buffer has been successfully written or an error occurs. The first error generated will be returned.The buffer is advanced after each chunk is successfully written. After failure,
src.chunk()will return the chunk that failed to write.Cancel safety
If
write_all_bufis used as the event in atokio::select!statement and some other branch completes first, then the data in the provided buffer may have been partially written. However, it is guaranteed that the provided buffer has been advanced by the amount of bytes that have been partially written.Examples
FileimplementsAsyncWriteandCursor<&[u8]>implementsBuf:use tokio::io::{self, AsyncWriteExt}; use tokio::fs::File; use std::io::Cursor; #[tokio::main] async fn main() -> io::Result<()> { let mut file = File::create("foo.txt").await?; let mut buffer = Cursor::new(b"data to write"); file.write_all_buf(&mut buffer).await?; file.flush().await?; Ok(()) }fn write_all<'a>(self: &'a mut Self, src: &'a [u8]) -> WriteAll<'a, Self> where Self: UnpinAttempts to write an entire buffer into this writer.
Equivalent to:
async fn write_all(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> io::Result<()>;This method will continuously call
writeuntil there is no more data to be written. This method will not return until the entire buffer has been successfully written or such an error occurs. The first error generated from this method will be returned.Cancel safety
This method is not cancellation safe. If it is used as the event in a
tokio::select!statement and some other branch completes first, then the provided buffer may have been partially written, but future calls towrite_allwill start over from the beginning of the buffer.Errors
This function will return the first error that
writereturns.Examples

Equivalent to:
async fn flush(&mut self) -> io::Result<()>;Errors
It is considered an error if not all bytes could be written due to I/O errors or EOF being reached.
Cancel safety
This method is cancel safe.
If
flushis used as the event in atokio::select!statement and some other branch completes first, then the data in the buffered data in thisAsyncWritemay have been partially flushed. However, it is guaranteed that the buffer is advanced by the amount of bytes that have been partially flushed.Examples
use tokio::io::{self, BufWriter, AsyncWriteExt}; use tokio::fs::File; #[tokio::main] async fn main() -> io::Result<()> { let f = File::create("foo.txt").await?; let mut buffer = BufWriter::new(f); buffer.write_all(b"some bytes").await?; buffer.flush().await?; Ok(()) }fn shutdown(self: &mut Self) -> Shutdown<'_, Self> where Self: UnpinShuts down the output stream, ensuring that the value can be dropped cleanly.
Equivalent to:
async fn shutdown(&mut self) -> io::Result<()>;Similar to
flush, all intermediately buffered is written to the underlying stream. Once the operation completes, the caller should no longer attempt to write to the stream. For example, theTcpStreamimplementation will issue ashutdown(Write)sys call.Examples
use tokio::io::{self, BufWriter, AsyncWriteExt}; use tokio::fs::File; #[tokio::main] async fn main() -> io::Result<()> { let f = File::create("foo.txt").await?; let mut buffer = BufWriter::new(f); buffer.write_all(b"some bytes").await?; buffer.shutdown().await?; Ok(()) }
