rev_lines

This library provides a small Rust Iterator for reading files line by line with a buffer in reverse

Documentation

Documentation is available on Docs.rs.

Example

use std::fs::File;

use rev_lines::RevLines;

let file = File::open("README.md").unwrap();
let rev_lines = RevLines::new(file);

for line in rev_lines {
    println!("{:?}", line);
}

lib.rs:

RevLines

This library provides a small Rust Iterator for reading files or any BufReader line by line with buffering in reverse.

Example

use std::fs::File;

use rev_lines::RevLines;

let file = File::open("README.md").unwrap();
let rev_lines = RevLines::new(file);

for line in rev_lines {
    println!("{:?}", line);
}

If a line with invalid UTF-8 is encountered, the iterator will return None next, and stop iterating.

This method uses logic borrowed from uutils/coreutils tail
