// Scanner provides a convenient interface for reading data such as
// a file of newline-delimited lines of text. Successive calls to
// the [Scanner.Scan] method will step through the 'tokens' of a file, skipping
// the bytes between the tokens. The specification of a token is
// defined by a split function of type [SplitFunc]; the default split
// function breaks the input into lines with line termination stripped. [Scanner.Split]
// functions are defined in this package for scanning a file into
// lines, bytes, UTF-8-encoded runes, and space-delimited words. The
// client may instead provide a custom split function.
//
// Scanning stops unrecoverably at EOF, the first I/O error, or a token too
// large to fit in the [Scanner.Buffer]. When a scan stops, the reader may have
// advanced arbitrarily far past the last token. Programs that need more
// control over error handling or large tokens, or must run sequential scans
// on a reader, should use [bufio.Reader] instead.
type Scanner struct {
r io.Reader // The reader provided by the client.
split SplitFunc // The function to split the tokens.
maxTokenSize int // Maximum size of a token; modified by tests.
token []byte // Last token returned by split.
buf []byte // Buffer used as argument to split.
start int // First non-processed byte in buf.
end int // End of data in buf.
err error // Sticky error.
empties int // Count of successive empty tokens.
scanCalled bool // Scan has been called; buffer is in use.
done bool // Scan has finished.
}
// SplitFunc is the signature of the split function used to tokenize the
// input. The arguments are an initial substring of the remaining unprocessed
// data and a flag, atEOF, that reports whether the [Reader] has no more data
// to give. The return values are the number of bytes to advance the input
// and the next token to return to the user, if any, plus an error, if any.
//
// Scanning stops if the function returns an error, in which case some of
// the input may be discarded. If that error is [ErrFinalToken], scanning
// stops with no error. A non-nil token delivered with [ErrFinalToken]
// will be the last token, and a nil token with [ErrFinalToken]
// immediately stops the scanning.
//
// Otherwise, the [Scanner] advances the input. If the token is not nil,
// the [Scanner] returns it to the user. If the token is nil, the
// Scanner reads more data and continues scanning; if there is no more
// data--if atEOF was true--the [Scanner] returns. If the data does not
// yet hold a complete token, for instance if it has no newline while
// scanning lines, a [SplitFunc] can return (0, nil, nil) to signal the
// [Scanner] to read more data into the slice and try again with a
// longer slice starting at the same point in the input.
//
// The function is never called with an empty data slice unless atEOF
// is true. If atEOF is true, however, data may be non-empty and,
// as always, holds unprocessed text.
