dulwich.archive.ChunkedBytesIO

class documentation

class ChunkedBytesIO:

Turn a list of bytestrings into a file-like object.

This is similar to creating a BytesIO from a concatenation of the bytestring list, but saves memory by NOT creating one giant bytestring first:

BytesIO(b''.join(list_of_bytestrings)) =~= ChunkedBytesIO(
    list_of_bytestrings)

Method	`__init__`	Initialize ChunkedBytesIO.
Method	`read`	Read bytes from the chunked stream.
Instance Variable	`contents`	Undocumented
Instance Variable	`pos`	Undocumented

def __init__(self, contents: list[bytes]): ¶

Parameters
contents:`list[bytes]`	List of byte chunks

def read(self, maxbytes: int | None = None) -> bytes: ¶

Read bytes from the chunked stream.

Parameters
maxbytes:`int \| None`	Maximum number of bytes to read (None for all)

Returns
`bytes`	Bytes read
