◆ exists()

bool SdBaseFile::exists ( const char * name )

Test for the existence of a file in a directory

◆ fgets()

int16_t SdBaseFile::fgets	(	char *	str,
		int16_t	num,

	)

Get a string from a file.

fgets() reads bytes from a file into the array pointed to by str, until num - 1 bytes are read, or a delimiter is read and transferred to str, or end-of-file is encountered. The string is then terminated with a null byte.

fgets() deletes CR, '\r', from the string. This insures only a '\n' terminates the string for Windows text files which use CRLF for newline.

Parameters

O_READ - Open for reading.

O_RDONLY - Same as O_READ.

O_WRITE - Open for writing.

O_WRONLY - Same as O_WRITE.

O_RDWR - Open for reading and writing.

O_APPEND - If set, the file offset shall be set to the end of the file prior to each write.

O_AT_END - Set the initial position at the end of the file.

O_CREAT - If the file exists, this flag has no effect except as noted under O_EXCL below. Otherwise, the file shall be created

O_EXCL - If O_CREAT and O_EXCL are set, open() shall fail if the file exists.

O_SYNC - Call sync() after each write. This flag should not be used with write(uint8_t), write_P(PGM_P), writeln_P(PGM_P), or the Arduino Print class. These functions do character at a time writes so sync() will be called after each byte.

O_TRUNC - If the file exists and is a regular file, and the file is successfully opened and is not read only, its length shall be truncated to 0.

WARNING: A given file must not be opened by more than one SdBaseFile object of file corruption may occur.

Note: Directory files must be opened read only. Write and truncation is not allowed for directory files.

Set the files position to current position + pos. See seekSet().

Parameters

[in] offset The new position in bytes from the current position.

Returns: true for success or false for failure.

◆ seekEnd()

bool SdBaseFile::seekEnd ( int32_t offset = 0 )

inline

Set the files position to end-of-file + offset. See seekSet().

Parameters

[in] offset The new position in bytes from end-of-file.

Returns: true for success or false for failure.

◆ seekSet()

bool SdBaseFile::seekSet ( uint32_t pos )

Sets a file's position.

Parameters

[in] pos The new position in bytes from the beginning of the file.

Returns: The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure.

◆ setpos()

void SdBaseFile::setpos ( filepos_t * pos )

set position for streams

Parameters

[out] pos struct with value for new position

◆ sync()

bool SdBaseFile::sync ( )

The sync() call causes all modified data and directory fields to be written to the storage device.

Returns: The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure. Reasons for failure include a call to sync() before a file has been opened or an I/O error.

◆ timestamp() [1/2]

bool SdBaseFile::timestamp ( SdBaseFile * file )

Copy a file's timestamps

Parameters

[in] file File to copy timestamps from.

Note: Modify and access timestamps may be overwritten if a date time callback function has been set by dateTimeCallback().

Returns: The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure.

◆ timestamp() [2/2]

bool SdBaseFile::timestamp	(	uint8_t	flags,
		uint16_t	year,
		uint8_t	month,
		uint8_t	day,
		uint8_t	hour,
		uint8_t	minute,
		uint8_t	second
	)

Set a file's timestamps in its directory entry.

Parameters

[in] flags Values for flags are constructed by a bitwise-inclusive OR of flags from the following list

T_ACCESS - Set the file's last access date.

T_CREATE - Set the file's creation date and time.

T_WRITE - Set the file's last write/modification date and time.

Parameters

[in]	year	Valid range 1980 - 2107 inclusive.
[in]	month	Valid range 1 - 12 inclusive.
[in]	day	Valid range 1 - 31 inclusive.
[in]	hour	Valid range 0 - 23 inclusive.
[in]	minute	Valid range 0 - 59 inclusive.
[in]	second	Valid range 0 - 59 inclusive

Note: It is possible to set an invalid date since there is no check for the number of days in a month.; Modify and access timestamps may be overwritten if a date time callback function has been set by dateTimeCallback().

Returns: The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure.

◆ truncate()

bool SdBaseFile::truncate ( uint32_t length )

Truncate a file to a specified length. The current file position will be maintained if it is less than or equal to length otherwise it will be set to end of file.

Parameters

[in] length The desired length for the file.

Returns: The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure. Reasons for failure include file is read only, file is a directory, length is greater than the current file size or an I/O error occurs.

◆ type()

uint8_t SdBaseFile::type ( ) const

inline

Type of file. You should use isFile() or isDir() instead of type() if possible.

Returns: The file or directory type.

◆ volume()

SdVolume* SdBaseFile::volume ( ) const

inline

Returns: SdVolume that contains this file.

◆ write()

int16_t SdBaseFile::write	(	const void *	buf,
		uint16_t	nbyte
	)

Write data to an open file.

Note: Data is moved to the cache but may not be written to the storage device until sync() is called.

Parameters

[in]	buf	Pointer to the location of the data to be written.
[in]	nbyte	Number of bytes to write.

Returns: For success write() returns the number of bytes written, always nbyte. If an error occurs, write() returns -1. Possible errors include write() is called before a file has been opened, write is called for a read-only file, device is full, a corrupt file system or an I/O error.

Member Data Documentation

◆ writeError

bool SdBaseFile::writeError

writeError is set to true if an error occurs during a write(). Set writeError to false before calling print() and/or write() and check for true after calls to print() and/or write().
