Constants¶
const MinRead = 512
MinRead is the minimum slice size passed to aBuffer.Read call byBuffer.ReadFrom. As long as theBuffer has at least MinRead bytes beyondwhat is required to hold the contents of r,Buffer.ReadFrom will not grow theunderlying buffer.
Variables¶
var ErrTooLarge =errors.New("bytes.Buffer: too large")
ErrTooLarge is passed to panic if memory cannot be allocated to store data in a buffer.
Functions¶
funcClone¶added ingo1.20
Clone returns a copy of b[:len(b)].The result may have additional unused capacity.Clone(nil) returns nil.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {b := []byte("abc")clone := bytes.Clone(b)fmt.Printf("%s\n", clone)clone[0] = 'd'fmt.Printf("%s\n", b)fmt.Printf("%s\n", clone)}
Output:abcabcdbc
funcCompare¶
Compare returns an integer comparing two byte slices lexicographically.The result will be 0 if a == b, -1 if a < b, and +1 if a > b.A nil argument is equivalent to an empty slice.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes")func main() {// Interpret Compare's result by comparing it to zero.var a, b []byteif bytes.Compare(a, b) < 0 {// a less b}if bytes.Compare(a, b) <= 0 {// a less or equal b}if bytes.Compare(a, b) > 0 {// a greater b}if bytes.Compare(a, b) >= 0 {// a greater or equal b}// Prefer Equal to Compare for equality comparisons.if bytes.Equal(a, b) {// a equal b}if !bytes.Equal(a, b) {// a not equal b}}
Example (Search)¶
package mainimport ("bytes""slices")func main() {// Binary search to find a matching byte slice.var needle []bytevar haystack [][]byte // Assume sorted_, found := slices.BinarySearchFunc(haystack, needle, bytes.Compare)if found {// Found it!}}

Output:35
funcCut¶added ingo1.18
Cut slices s around the first instance of sep,returning the text before and after sep.The found result reports whether sep appears in s.If sep does not appear in s, cut returns s, nil, false.
Cut returns slices of the original slice s, not copies.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {show := func(s, sep string) {before, after, found := bytes.Cut([]byte(s), []byte(sep))fmt.Printf("Cut(%q, %q) = %q, %q, %v\n", s, sep, before, after, found)}show("Gopher", "Go")show("Gopher", "ph")show("Gopher", "er")show("Gopher", "Badger")}

funcCutSuffix¶added ingo1.20
CutSuffix returns s without the provided ending suffix byte sliceand reports whether it found the suffix.If s doesn't end with suffix, CutSuffix returns s, false.If suffix is the empty byte slice, CutSuffix returns s, true.
CutSuffix returns slices of the original slice s, not copies.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {show := func(s, suffix string) {before, found := bytes.CutSuffix([]byte(s), []byte(suffix))fmt.Printf("CutSuffix(%q, %q) = %q, %v\n", s, suffix, before, found)}show("Gopher", "Go")show("Gopher", "er")}
Output:CutSuffix("Gopher", "Go") = "Gopher", falseCutSuffix("Gopher", "er") = "Goph", true

Output:truefalse
funcEqualFold¶
EqualFold reports whether s and t, interpreted as UTF-8 strings,are equal under simple Unicode case-folding, which is a more generalform of case-insensitivity.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {fmt.Println(bytes.EqualFold([]byte("Go"), []byte("go")))}
Output:true
funcFields¶
Fields interprets s as a sequence of UTF-8-encoded code points.It splits the slice s around each instance of one or more consecutive white spacecharacters, as defined byunicode.IsSpace, returning a slice of subslices of s or anempty slice if s contains only white space. Every element of the returned slice isnon-empty. UnlikeSplit, leading and trailing runs of white space charactersare discarded.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {fmt.Printf("Fields are: %q", bytes.Fields([]byte(" foo bar baz ")))}
Output:Fields are: ["foo" "bar" "baz"]
funcFieldsFunc¶
FieldsFunc interprets s as a sequence of UTF-8-encoded code points.It splits the slice s at each run of code points c satisfying f(c) andreturns a slice of subslices of s. If all code points in s satisfy f(c), orlen(s) == 0, an empty slice is returned. Every element of the returned slice isnon-empty. Unlike [SplitFunc], leading and trailing runs of code pointssatisfying f(c) are discarded.
FieldsFunc makes no guarantees about the order in which it calls f(c)and assumes that f always returns the same value for a given c.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt""unicode")func main() {f := func(c rune) bool {return !unicode.IsLetter(c) && !unicode.IsNumber(c)}fmt.Printf("Fields are: %q", bytes.FieldsFunc([]byte(" foo1;bar2,baz3..."), f))}
Output:Fields are: ["foo1" "bar2" "baz3"]
funcFieldsFuncSeq¶added ingo1.24.0
FieldsFuncSeq returns an iterator over subslices of s split around runs ofUnicode code points satisfying f(c).The iterator yields the same subslices that would be returned byFieldsFunc(s),but without constructing a new slice containing the subslices.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt""unicode")func main() {text := []byte("The quick brown fox")fmt.Println("Split on whitespace(similar to FieldsSeq):")for word := range bytes.FieldsFuncSeq(text, unicode.IsSpace) {fmt.Printf("%q\n", word)}mixedText := []byte("abc123def456ghi")fmt.Println("\nSplit on digits:")for word := range bytes.FieldsFuncSeq(mixedText, unicode.IsDigit) {fmt.Printf("%q\n", word)}}
Output:Split on whitespace(similar to FieldsSeq):"The""quick""brown""fox"Split on digits:"abc""def""ghi"
funcFieldsSeq¶added ingo1.24.0
FieldsSeq returns an iterator over subslices of s split around runs ofwhitespace characters, as defined byunicode.IsSpace.The iterator yields the same subslices that would be returned byFields(s),but without constructing a new slice containing the subslices.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {text := []byte("The quick brown fox")fmt.Println("Split byte slice into fields:")for word := range bytes.FieldsSeq(text) {fmt.Printf("%q\n", word)}textWithSpaces := []byte(" lots of spaces ")fmt.Println("\nSplit byte slice with multiple spaces:")for word := range bytes.FieldsSeq(textWithSpaces) {fmt.Printf("%q\n", word)}}
Output:Split byte slice into fields:"The""quick""brown""fox"Split byte slice with multiple spaces:"lots""of""spaces"

Output:"Hello\n""World\n""Go Programming\n"
funcMap¶
Map returns a copy of the byte slice s with all its characters modifiedaccording to the mapping function. If mapping returns a negative value, the character isdropped from the byte slice with no replacement. The characters in s and theoutput are interpreted as UTF-8-encoded code points.

Output:banana
funcReplace¶
Replace returns a copy of the slice s with the first nnon-overlapping instances of old replaced by new.If old is empty, it matches at the beginning of the sliceand after each UTF-8 sequence, yielding up to k+1 replacementsfor a k-rune slice.If n < 0, there is no limit on the number of replacements.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {fmt.Printf("%s\n", bytes.Replace([]byte("oink oink oink"), []byte("k"), []byte("ky"), 2))fmt.Printf("%s\n", bytes.Replace([]byte("oink oink oink"), []byte("oink"), []byte("moo"), -1))}

Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {rs := bytes.Runes([]byte("go gopher"))for _, r := range rs {fmt.Printf("%#U\n", r)}}
Output:U+0067 'g'U+006F 'o'U+0020 ' 'U+0067 'g'U+006F 'o'U+0070 'p'U+0068 'h'U+0065 'e'U+0072 'r'
funcSplit¶
Split slices s into all subslices separated by sep and returns a slice ofthe subslices between those separators.If sep is empty, Split splits after each UTF-8 sequence.It is equivalent to SplitN with a count of -1.
To split around the first instance of a separator, seeCut.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.Split([]byte("a,b,c"), []byte(",")))fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.Split([]byte("a man a plan a canal panama"), []byte("a ")))fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.Split([]byte(" xyz "), []byte("")))fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.Split([]byte(""), []byte("Bernardo O'Higgins")))}
Output:["a" "b" "c"]["" "man " "plan " "canal panama"][" " "x" "y" "z" " "][""]
funcSplitAfter¶

Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.SplitAfter([]byte("a,b,c"), []byte(",")))}
Output:["a," "b," "c"]
funcSplitAfterN¶
SplitAfterN slices s into subslices after each instance of sep andreturns a slice of those subslices.If sep is empty, SplitAfterN splits after each UTF-8 sequence.The count determines the number of subslices to return:
- n > 0: at most n subslices; the last subslice will be the unsplit remainder;
- n == 0: the result is nil (zero subslices);
- n < 0: all subslices.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.SplitAfterN([]byte("a,b,c"), []byte(","), 2))}
Output:["a," "b,c"]
funcSplitAfterSeq¶added ingo1.24.0
SplitAfterSeq returns an iterator over subslices of s split after each instance of sep.The iterator yields the same subslices that would be returned bySplitAfter(s, sep),but without constructing a new slice containing the subslices.It returns a single-use iterator.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {s := []byte("a,b,c,d")for part := range bytes.SplitAfterSeq(s, []byte(",")) {fmt.Printf("%q\n", part)}}
Output:"a,""b,""c,""d"
funcSplitN¶
SplitN slices s into subslices separated by sep and returns a slice ofthe subslices between those separators.If sep is empty, SplitN splits after each UTF-8 sequence.The count determines the number of subslices to return:
- n > 0: at most n subslices; the last subslice will be the unsplit remainder;
- n == 0: the result is nil (zero subslices);
- n < 0: all subslices.
To split around the first instance of a separator, seeCut.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.SplitN([]byte("a,b,c"), []byte(","), 2))z := bytes.SplitN([]byte("a,b,c"), []byte(","), 0)fmt.Printf("%q (nil = %v)\n", z, z == nil)}

Output:Hello, world!
Types¶
typeBuffer¶
type Buffer struct {// contains filtered or unexported fields}
A Buffer is a variable-sized buffer of bytes withBuffer.Read andBuffer.Write methods.The zero value for Buffer is an empty buffer ready to use.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt""os")func main() {var b bytes.Buffer // A Buffer needs no initialization.b.Write([]byte("Hello "))fmt.Fprintf(&b, "world!")b.WriteTo(os.Stdout)}
Output:Hello world!
Example (Reader)¶
package mainimport ("bytes""encoding/base64""io""os")func main() {// A Buffer can turn a string or a []byte into an io.Reader.buf := bytes.NewBufferString("R29waGVycyBydWxlIQ==")dec := base64.NewDecoder(base64.StdEncoding, buf)io.Copy(os.Stdout, dec)}
Output:Gophers rule!
funcNewBuffer¶
NewBuffer creates and initializes a newBuffer using buf as itsinitial contents. The newBuffer takes ownership of buf, and thecaller should not use buf after this call. NewBuffer is intended toprepare aBuffer to read existing data. It can also be used to setthe initial size of the internal buffer for writing. To do that,buf should have the desired capacity but a length of zero.
In most cases, new(Buffer) (or just declaring aBuffer variable) issufficient to initialize aBuffer.
funcNewBufferString¶
NewBufferString creates and initializes a newBuffer using string s as itsinitial contents. It is intended to prepare a buffer to read an existingstring.
In most cases, new(Buffer) (or just declaring aBuffer variable) issufficient to initialize aBuffer.
func (*Buffer)AvailableBuffer¶added ingo1.21.0
AvailableBuffer returns an empty buffer with b.Available() capacity.This buffer is intended to be appended to andpassed to an immediately succeedingBuffer.Write call.The buffer is only valid until the next write operation on b.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""os""strconv")func main() {var buf bytes.Bufferfor i := 0; i < 4; i++ {b := buf.AvailableBuffer()b = strconv.AppendInt(b, int64(i), 10)b = append(b, ' ')buf.Write(b)}os.Stdout.Write(buf.Bytes())}
Output:0 1 2 3
func (*Buffer)Bytes¶
Bytes returns a slice of length b.Len() holding the unread portion of the buffer.The slice is valid for use only until the next buffer modification (that is,only until the next call to a method likeBuffer.Read,Buffer.Write,Buffer.Reset, orBuffer.Truncate).The slice aliases the buffer content at least until the next buffer modification,so immediate changes to the slice will affect the result of future reads.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""os")func main() {buf := bytes.Buffer{}buf.Write([]byte{'h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', ' ', 'w', 'o', 'r', 'l', 'd'})os.Stdout.Write(buf.Bytes())}
Output:hello world
func (*Buffer)Cap¶added ingo1.5
Cap returns the capacity of the buffer's underlying byte slice, that is, thetotal space allocated for the buffer's data.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {buf1 := bytes.NewBuffer(make([]byte, 10))buf2 := bytes.NewBuffer(make([]byte, 0, 10))fmt.Println(buf1.Cap())fmt.Println(buf2.Cap())}
Output:1010
func (*Buffer)Grow¶added ingo1.1
Grow grows the buffer's capacity, if necessary, to guarantee space foranother n bytes. After Grow(n), at least n bytes can be written to thebuffer without another allocation.If n is negative, Grow will panic.If the buffer can't grow it will panic withErrTooLarge.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {var b bytes.Bufferb.Grow(64)bb := b.Bytes()b.Write([]byte("64 bytes or fewer"))fmt.Printf("%q", bb[:b.Len()])}
Output:"64 bytes or fewer"
func (*Buffer)Len¶
Len returns the number of bytes of the unread portion of the buffer;b.Len() == len(b.Bytes()).
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {var b bytes.Bufferb.Grow(64)b.Write([]byte("abcde"))fmt.Printf("%d", b.Len())}
Output:5
func (*Buffer)Next¶
Next returns a slice containing the next n bytes from the buffer,advancing the buffer as if the bytes had been returned byBuffer.Read.If there are fewer than n bytes in the buffer, Next returns the entire buffer.The slice is only valid until the next call to a read or write method.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {var b bytes.Bufferb.Grow(64)b.Write([]byte("abcde"))fmt.Printf("%s\n", b.Next(2))fmt.Printf("%s\n", b.Next(2))fmt.Printf("%s", b.Next(2))}
Output:abcde
func (*Buffer)Read¶
Read reads the next len(p) bytes from the buffer or until the bufferis drained. The return value n is the number of bytes read. If thebuffer has no data to return, err isio.EOF (unless len(p) is zero);otherwise it is nil.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {var b bytes.Bufferb.Grow(64)b.Write([]byte("abcde"))rdbuf := make([]byte, 1)n, err := b.Read(rdbuf)if err != nil {panic(err)}fmt.Println(n)fmt.Println(b.String())fmt.Println(string(rdbuf))}
Output:1bcdea
func (*Buffer)ReadByte¶
ReadByte reads and returns the next byte from the buffer.If no byte is available, it returns errorio.EOF.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {var b bytes.Bufferb.Grow(64)b.Write([]byte("abcde"))c, err := b.ReadByte()if err != nil {panic(err)}fmt.Println(c)fmt.Println(b.String())}
Output:97bcde
func (*Buffer)ReadBytes¶
ReadBytes reads until the first occurrence of delim in the input,returning a slice containing the data up to and including the delimiter.If ReadBytes encounters an error before finding a delimiter,it returns the data read before the error and the error itself (oftenio.EOF).ReadBytes returns err != nil if and only if the returned data does not end indelim.
func (*Buffer)ReadFrom¶
ReadFrom reads data from r until EOF and appends it to the buffer, growingthe buffer as needed. The return value n is the number of bytes read. Anyerror except io.EOF encountered during the read is also returned. If thebuffer becomes too large, ReadFrom will panic withErrTooLarge.
func (*Buffer)ReadRune¶
ReadRune reads and returns the next UTF-8-encodedUnicode code point from the buffer.If no bytes are available, the error returned is io.EOF.If the bytes are an erroneous UTF-8 encoding, itconsumes one byte and returns U+FFFD, 1.
func (*Buffer)ReadString¶
ReadString reads until the first occurrence of delim in the input,returning a string containing the data up to and including the delimiter.If ReadString encounters an error before finding a delimiter,it returns the data read before the error and the error itself (oftenio.EOF).ReadString returns err != nil if and only if the returned data does not endin delim.
func (*Buffer)Reset¶
func (b *Buffer) Reset()
Reset resets the buffer to be empty,but it retains the underlying storage for use by future writes.Reset is the same asBuffer.Truncate(0).
func (*Buffer)String¶
String returns the contents of the unread portion of the bufferas a string. If theBuffer is a nil pointer, it returns "<nil>".
To build strings more efficiently, see thestrings.Builder type.
func (*Buffer)Truncate¶
Truncate discards all but the first n unread bytes from the bufferbut continues to use the same allocated storage.It panics if n is negative or greater than the length of the buffer.
func (*Buffer)UnreadByte¶
UnreadByte unreads the last byte returned by the most recent successfulread operation that read at least one byte. If a write has happened sincethe last read, if the last read returned an error, or if the read read zerobytes, UnreadByte returns an error.
func (*Buffer)UnreadRune¶
UnreadRune unreads the last rune returned byBuffer.ReadRune.If the most recent read or write operation on the buffer wasnot a successfulBuffer.ReadRune, UnreadRune returns an error. (In this regardit is stricter thanBuffer.UnreadByte, which will unread the last bytefrom any read operation.)
func (*Buffer)Write¶
Write appends the contents of p to the buffer, growing the buffer asneeded. The return value n is the length of p; err is always nil. If thebuffer becomes too large, Write will panic withErrTooLarge.
func (*Buffer)WriteByte¶
WriteByte appends the byte c to the buffer, growing the buffer as needed.The returned error is always nil, but is included to matchbufio.Writer'sWriteByte. If the buffer becomes too large, WriteByte will panic withErrTooLarge.
func (*Buffer)WriteRune¶
WriteRune appends the UTF-8 encoding of Unicode code point r to thebuffer, returning its length and an error, which is always nil but isincluded to matchbufio.Writer's WriteRune. The buffer is grown as needed;if it becomes too large, WriteRune will panic withErrTooLarge.
func (*Buffer)WriteString¶
WriteString appends the contents of s to the buffer, growing the buffer asneeded. The return value n is the length of s; err is always nil. If thebuffer becomes too large, WriteString will panic withErrTooLarge.
func (*Buffer)WriteTo¶
WriteTo writes data to w until the buffer is drained or an error occurs.The return value n is the number of bytes written; it always fits into anint, but it is int64 to match theio.WriterTo interface. Any errorencountered during the write is also returned.
typeReader¶
type Reader struct {// contains filtered or unexported fields}
A Reader implements theio.Reader,io.ReaderAt,io.WriterTo,io.Seeker,io.ByteScanner, andio.RuneScanner interfaces by reading froma byte slice.Unlike aBuffer, a Reader is read-only and supports seeking.The zero value for Reader operates like a Reader of an empty slice.
func (*Reader)Len¶
Len returns the number of bytes of the unread portion of theslice.
Example¶
package mainimport ("bytes""fmt")func main() {fmt.Println(bytes.NewReader([]byte("Hi!")).Len())fmt.Println(bytes.NewReader([]byte("こんにちは!")).Len())}
Output:316
func (*Reader)ReadAt¶
ReadAt implements theio.ReaderAt interface.
func (*Reader)ReadByte¶
ReadByte implements theio.ByteReader interface.
func (*Reader)ReadRune¶
ReadRune implements theio.RuneReader interface.
func (*Reader)Size¶added ingo1.5
Size returns the original length of the underlying byte slice.Size is the number of bytes available for reading viaReader.ReadAt.The result is unaffected by any method calls exceptReader.Reset.
func (*Reader)UnreadByte¶
UnreadByte complementsReader.ReadByte in implementing theio.ByteScanner interface.
func (*Reader)UnreadRune¶
UnreadRune complementsReader.ReadRune in implementing theio.RuneScanner interface.
