Stdin
Err
EndOfFile - This error occurs when an end-of-file (EOF) condition is met unexpectedly during input operations. Typically indicates that no more data is available for reading.
BrokenPipe - This error happens when an attempt to write to a pipe cannot proceed because the other end of the pipe has been closed. Common in IPC (Inter-Process Communication) scenarios.
UnexpectedEof - Similar to EndOfFile but specifically refers to cases where the EOF occurs unexpectedly, possibly indicating truncated or corrupted data streams.
InvalidInput - This error is raised when an input operation receives data that is not in a valid format, suggesting possible data corruption or a mismatch in expected data format.
OutOfMemory - Occurs when an operation fails due to insufficient memory available to complete the operation. This can affect data reading, buffering, or processing.
Interrupted - This error can happen if an input operation is interrupted by a system signal before it could complete, often needing a retry or causing the operation to fail.
Unsupported - Raised when an operation involves a feature or operation mode that is not supported. This might involve character encodings, data compression formats, etc.
Other - A catch-all category for errors that do not fall into the specified categories. Allows for flexible error handling of uncommon or unexpected conditions.
line : Task Str [StdinErr Err]
Read a line from standard input.
This task will block the program from continuing until
stdinreceives a newline character (e.g. because the user pressed Enter in the terminal), so using it can result in the appearance of the programming having gotten stuck. It's often helpful to print a prompt first, so the user knows it's necessary to enter something before the program will continue.
bytes : Task (List U8) *
Read bytes from standard input.
This is typically used in combintation with
Tty.enableRawMode, which disables defaults terminal bevahiour and allows reading input without buffering until Enter key is pressed.
