Std.Io.forEachLine

1 declaration

fn

forEachLine: Str -> fn(Str) -> () -> Result[(), Std.Io.IoError]

This is a callable function.

What it does

Run an action for every line of a file, keeping nothing.

For an action that only reaches outside the program — printing a line,

writing it elsewhere. A caller gathering the lines wants foldLines,

because what this action assigns to a variable outside itself does not

leave the action.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
  • Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
  • Result makes success and recoverable failure part of the function's type.
