int FsBaseFile::available | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Returns
  number of bytes available from the current position to EOF or INT_MAX if more than INT_MAX bytes are available.

## ◆ available64()

uint64_t FsBaseFile::available64 | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Returns
  The number of bytes available from the current position to EOF for normal files. Zero is returned for directory files.

## ◆ clearWriteError()

void FsBaseFile::clearWriteError | ( |  | ) |
| inline

Clear writeError.

## ◆ close()

bool FsBaseFile::close | ( |  | ) |

Close a file and force cached data and directory information to be written to the storage device.

Returns
  true for success or false for failure.

bool FsBaseFile::contiguousRange | ( | uint32_t * | bgnSector,
|  | uint32_t * | endSector
| ) |  |
| inline

Check for contiguous file and return its raw sector range.

Parameters

  [out] | bgnSector | the first sector address for the file.
  [out] | endSector | the last sector address for the file.

Set contiguous flag for FAT16/FAT32 files. Parameters may be nullptr.

Returns
  true for success or false for failure.

## ◆ curPosition()

uint64_t FsBaseFile::curPosition | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Returns
  The current position for a file or directory.

## ◆ dirIndex()

uint32_t FsBaseFile::dirIndex | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Returns
  Directory entry index.

## ◆ exists()

bool FsBaseFile::exists | ( | const char * | path | ) |
| inline

Test for the existence of a file in a directory

Parameters

  [in] | path | Path of the file to be tested for.

The calling instance must be an open directory file.

dirFile.exists("TOFIND.TXT") searches for "TOFIND.TXT" in the directory dirFile.

Returns
  true if the file exists else false.

## ◆ fgetpos()

void FsBaseFile::fgetpos | ( | fspos_t * | pos | ) | const
| inline

get position for streams

Parameters

## ◆ fgets()

int FsBaseFile::fgets | ( | char * | str,
|  | int | num,
|  | char * | delim = `nullptr`
| ) |  |
| inline

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

  [out] | str | Pointer to the array where the string is stored.
  [in] | num | Maximum number of characters to be read (including the final null byte). Usually the length of the array str is used.
  [in] | delim | Optional set of delimiters. The default is "\n".

Returns
  For success fgets() returns the length of the string in str. If no data is read, fgets() returns zero for EOF or -1 if an error occurred.

## ◆ fileSize()

| inline

Returns
  The total number of bytes in a file.

## ◆ truncate() [1/2]

bool FsBaseFile::truncate | ( |  | ) |
| inline

Truncate a file to the current position.

Returns
  true for success or false for failure.

## ◆ truncate() [2/2]

bool FsBaseFile::truncate | ( | uint64_t | length | ) |
| inline

Truncate a file to a specified length. The current file position will be set to end of file.

Parameters

  [in] | length | The desired length for the file.

Returns
  true for success or false for failure.

## ◆ write() [1/2]

size_t FsBaseFile::write | ( | const void * | buf,
|  | size_t | count
| ) |  |
| inline

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] | count | 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.

## ◆ write() [2/2]

size_t FsBaseFile::write | ( | uint8_t | b | ) |
| inline

Write a byte to a file. Required by the Arduino Print class.

Parameters

  [in] | b | the byte to be written. Use getWriteError to check for errors.

Returns
  1 for success and 0 for failure.
