require 'delegate'
require 'tmpdir'
# A utility class for managing temporary files. When you create a Tempfile
# object, it will create a temporary file with a unique filename. A Tempfile
# objects behaves just like a File object, and you can perform all the usual
# file operations on it: reading data, writing data, changing its permissions,
# etc. So although this class does not explicitly document all instance methods
# supported by File, you can in fact call any File instance method on a
# Tempfile object.
#
# == Synopsis
#
# require 'tempfile'
#
# file = Tempfile.new('foo')
# file.path # => A unique filename in the OS's temp directory,
# # e.g.: "/tmp/foo.24722.0"
# # This filename contains 'foo' in its basename.
# file.write("hello world")
# file.rewind
# file.read # => "hello world"
# file.close
# file.unlink # deletes the temp file
#
# == Good practices
#
# === Explicit close
#
# When a Tempfile object is garbage collected, or when the Ruby interpreter
# exits, its associated temporary file is automatically deleted. This means
# that it's unnecessary to explicitly delete a Tempfile after use, though
# it's a good practice to do so: not explicitly deleting unused Tempfiles can
# potentially leave behind a large number of temp files on the filesystem
# until they're garbage collected. The existence of these temp files can make
# it harder to determine a new Tempfile filename.
#
# Therefore, one should always call #unlink or close in an ensure block, like
# this:
#
# file = Tempfile.new('foo')
# begin
# # ...do something with file...
# ensure
# file.close
# file.unlink # deletes the temp file
# end
#
# Tempfile.create { ... } exists for this purpose and is more convenient to use.
# Note that Tempfile.create returns a File instance instead of a Tempfile, which
# also avoids the overhead and complications of delegation.
#
# Tempfile.open('foo') do |file|
# # ...do something with file...
# end
#
# === Unlink after creation
#
# On POSIX systems, it's possible to unlink a file right after creating it,
# and before closing it. This removes the filesystem entry without closing
# the file handle, so it ensures that only the processes that already had
# the file handle open can access the file's contents. It's strongly
# recommended that you do this if you do not want any other processes to
# be able to read from or write to the Tempfile, and you do not need to
# know the Tempfile's filename either.
#
# For example, a practical use case for unlink-after-creation would be this:
# you need a large byte buffer that's too large to comfortably fit in RAM,
# e.g. when you're writing a web server and you want to buffer the client's
# file upload data.
#
# Please refer to #unlink for more information and a code example.
#
# == Minor notes
#
# Tempfile's filename picking method is both thread-safe and inter-process-safe:
# it guarantees that no other threads or processes will pick the same filename.
#
# Tempfile itself however may not be entirely thread-safe. If you access the
# same Tempfile object from multiple threads then you should protect it with a
# mutex.
class Tempfile < DelegateClass(File)
# Creates a file in the underlying file system;
# returns a new \Tempfile object based on that file.
#
# If possible, consider instead using Tempfile.create, which:
#
# - Avoids the performance cost of delegation,
# incurred when Tempfile.new calls its superclass <tt>DelegateClass(File)</tt>.
# - Does not rely on a finalizer to close and unlink the file,
# which can be unreliable.
#
# Creates and returns file whose:
#
# - Class is \Tempfile (not \File, as in Tempfile.create).
# - Directory is the system temporary directory (system-dependent).
# - Generated filename is unique in that directory.
# - Permissions are <tt>0600</tt>;
# see {File Permissions}[rdoc-ref:File@File+Permissions].
# - Mode is <tt>'w+'</tt> (read/write mode, positioned at the end).
#
# The underlying file is removed when the \Tempfile object dies
# and is reclaimed by the garbage collector.
#
# Example:
#
# f = Tempfile.new # => #<Tempfile:/tmp/20220505-17839-1s0kt30>
# f.class # => Tempfile
# f.path # => "/tmp/20220505-17839-1s0kt30"
# f.stat.mode.to_s(8) # => "100600"
# File.exist?(f.path) # => true
# File.unlink(f.path) #
# File.exist?(f.path) # => false
#
# Argument +basename+, if given, may be one of:
#
# - A string: the generated filename begins with +basename+:
#
# Tempfile.new('foo') # => #<Tempfile:/tmp/foo20220505-17839-1whk2f>
#
# - An array of two strings <tt>[prefix, suffix]</tt>:
# the generated filename begins with +prefix+ and ends with +suffix+:
#
# Tempfile.new(%w/foo .jpg/) # => #<Tempfile:/tmp/foo20220505-17839-58xtfi.jpg>
#
# With arguments +basename+ and +tmpdir+, the file is created in directory +tmpdir+:
#
# Tempfile.new('foo', '.') # => #<Tempfile:./foo20220505-17839-xfstr8>
#
# Keyword arguments +mode+ and +options+ are passed directly to method
# {File.open}[rdoc-ref:File.open]:
#
# - The value given with +mode+ must be an integer,
# and may be expressed as the logical OR of constants defined in
# {File::Constants}[rdoc-ref:File::Constants].
# - For +options+, see {Open Options}[rdoc-ref:IO@Open+Options].

# However, unlink-before-close may not be supported on non-POSIX operating
# systems. Microsoft Windows is the most notable case: unlinking a non-closed
# file will result in an error, which this method will silently ignore. If
# you want to practice unlink-before-close whenever possible, then you should
# write code like this:
#
# file = Tempfile.new('foo')
# file.unlink # On Windows this silently fails.
# begin
# # ... do something with file ...
# ensure
# file.close! # Closes the file handle. If the file wasn't unlinked
# # because #unlink failed, then this method will attempt
# # to do so again.

# Creates a new Tempfile.
#
# This method is not recommended and exists mostly for backward compatibility.
# Please use Tempfile.create instead, which avoids the cost of delegation,
# does not rely on a finalizer, and also unlinks the file when given a block.
#
# Tempfile.open is still appropriate if you need the Tempfile to be unlinked
# by a finalizer and you cannot explicitly know where in the program the
# Tempfile can be unlinked safely.
#
# If no block is given, this is a synonym for Tempfile.new.
#
# If a block is given, then a Tempfile object will be constructed,
# and the block is run with the Tempfile object as argument. The Tempfile
# object will be automatically closed after the block terminates.
# However, the file will *not* be unlinked and needs to be manually unlinked
# with Tempfile#close! or Tempfile#unlink. The finalizer will try to unlink
# but should not be relied upon as it can keep the file on the disk much
# longer than intended. For instance, on CRuby, finalizers can be delayed
# due to conservative stack scanning and references left in unused memory.
#
# The call returns the value of the block.
#
# In any case, all arguments (<code>*args</code>) will be passed to Tempfile.new.
