loadBytes on Resource

[JakubKahovec]

Hi,

First thank you for your library it makes life working with files much easier :-)
So what would be the recommended way (without converting char to byte) to get bytes from a resource (fetched through resource"/myresource.json") as loadBytes only exist on File class

Thanks

Jakub

Hi, yes, the Resource APIs are not done yet. Future versions of better-files would have resource APIs similar to the files.

For now, I think this would work using better-files:

val bytes: Iterator[Byte] = this.getClass.getResourceAsStream("myresource.json").bytes

Duplicate of #9

See:

better-files/core/src/main/scala/better/files/Implicits.scala

Line 62 in 51fefec

def bytes: Iterator[Byte] = in.autoClosedIterator(_.read())(_ != eof).map(_.toByte)

Works fine, thank you.

Forgot to mention, you might want .buffered.bytes for large files..
