//! Traits, helpers, and type definitions for asynchronous I/O functionality.
//!
//! This module is the asynchronous version of `std::io`. Primarily, it
//! defines two traits, [`AsyncRead`] and [`AsyncWrite`], which are asynchronous
//! versions of the [`Read`] and [`Write`] traits in the standard library.
//!
//! # AsyncRead and AsyncWrite
//!
//! Like the standard library's [`Read`] and [`Write`] traits, [`AsyncRead`] and
//! [`AsyncWrite`] provide the most general interface for reading and writing
//! input and output. Unlike the standard library's traits, however, they are
//! _asynchronous_ — meaning that reading from or writing to a `tokio::io`
//! type will _yield_ to the Tokio scheduler when IO is not ready, rather than
//! blocking. This allows other tasks to run while waiting on IO.
//!
//! Another difference is that `AsyncRead` and `AsyncWrite` only contain
//! core methods needed to provide asynchronous reading and writing
//! functionality. Instead, utility methods are defined in the [`AsyncReadExt`]
//! and [`AsyncWriteExt`] extension traits. These traits are automatically
//! implemented for all values that implement `AsyncRead` and `AsyncWrite`
//! respectively.
//!
//! End users will rarely interact directly with `AsyncRead` and
//! `AsyncWrite`. Instead, they will use the async functions defined in the
//! extension traits. Library authors are expected to implement `AsyncRead`
//! and `AsyncWrite` in order to provide types that behave like byte streams.
//!
//! Even with these differences, Tokio's `AsyncRead` and `AsyncWrite` traits
//! can be used in almost exactly the same manner as the standard library's
//! `Read` and `Write`. Most types in the standard library that implement `Read`
//! and `Write` have asynchronous equivalents in `tokio` that implement
//! `AsyncRead` and `AsyncWrite`, such as [`File`] and [`TcpStream`].
//!
//! For example, the standard library documentation introduces `Read` by
//! [demonstrating][std_example] reading some bytes from a [`std::fs::File`]. We
//! can do the same with [`tokio::fs::File`][`File`]:
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use tokio::io::{self, AsyncReadExt};
//! use tokio::fs::File;
//!
//! #[tokio::main]
//! async fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
//!     let mut f = File::open("foo.txt").await?;
//!     let mut buffer = [0; 10];
//!
//!     // read up to 10 bytes
//!     let n = f.read(&mut buffer).await?;
//!
//!     println!("The bytes: {:?}", &buffer[..n]);
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! [`File`]: crate::fs::File
//! [`TcpStream`]: crate::net::TcpStream
//! [`std::fs::File`]: std::fs::File
//! [std_example]: std::io#read-and-write
//!
//! ## Buffered Readers and Writers
//!
//! Byte-based interfaces are unwieldy and can be inefficient, as we'd need to be
//! making near-constant calls to the operating system. To help with this,
//! `std::io` comes with [support for _buffered_ readers and writers][stdbuf],
//! and therefore, `tokio::io` does as well.
//!
//! Tokio provides an async version of the [`std::io::BufRead`] trait,
//! [`AsyncBufRead`]; and async [`BufReader`] and [`BufWriter`] structs, which
//! wrap readers and writers. These wrappers use a buffer, reducing the number
//! of calls and providing nicer methods for accessing exactly what you want.
//!
//! For example, [`BufReader`] works with the [`AsyncBufRead`] trait to add
//! extra methods to any async reader:
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use tokio::io::{self, BufReader, AsyncBufReadExt};
//! use tokio::fs::File;
//!
//! #[tokio::main]
//! async fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
//!     let f = File::open("foo.txt").await?;
//!     let mut reader = BufReader::new(f);
//!     let mut buffer = String::new();
//!
//!     // read a line into buffer
//!     reader.read_line(&mut buffer).await?;
//!
//!     println!("{}", buffer);
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! [`BufWriter`] doesn't add any new ways of writing; it just buffers every call
//! to [`write`](crate::io::AsyncWriteExt::write). However, you **must** flush
//! [`BufWriter`] to ensure that any buffered data is written.
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use tokio::io::{self, BufWriter, AsyncWriteExt};
//! use tokio::fs::File;
//!
//! #[tokio::main]
//! async fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
//!     let f = File::create("foo.txt").await?;
//!     {
//!         let mut writer = BufWriter::new(f);
//!
//!         // Write a byte to the buffer.
//!         writer.write(&[42u8]).await?;
//!
//!         // Flush the buffer before it goes out of scope.
//!         writer.flush().await?;
//!
//!     } // Unless flushed or shut down, the contents of the buffer is discarded on drop.
//!
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! [stdbuf]: std::io#bufreader-and-bufwriter
//! [`std::io::BufRead`]: std::io::BufRead
//! [`AsyncBufRead`]: crate::io::AsyncBufRead
//! [`BufReader`]: crate::io::BufReader
//! [`BufWriter`]: crate::io::BufWriter
//!
//! ## Implementing AsyncRead and AsyncWrite
//!
//! Because they are traits, we can implement [`AsyncRead`] and [`AsyncWrite`] for
//! our own types, as well. Note that these traits must only be implemented for
//! non-blocking I/O types that integrate with the futures type system. In
//! other words, these types must never block the thread, and instead the
//! current task is notified when the I/O resource is ready.
//!
//! ## Conversion to and from Stream/Sink
//!
//! It is often convenient to encapsulate the reading and writing of bytes in a
//! [`Stream`] or [`Sink`] of data.
//!
//! Tokio provides simple wrappers for converting [`AsyncRead`] to [`Stream`]
//! and vice-versa in the [tokio-util] crate, see [`ReaderStream`] and
//! [`StreamReader`].
//!
//! There are also utility traits that abstract the asynchronous buffering
//! necessary to write your own adaptors for encoding and decoding bytes to/from
//! your structured data, allowing to transform something that implements
//! [`AsyncRead`]/[`AsyncWrite`] into a [`Stream`]/[`Sink`], see [`Decoder`] and
//! [`Encoder`] in the [tokio-util::codec] module.

//! [tokio-util::codec]: https://docs.rs/tokio-util/latest/tokio_util/codec/index.html
//!
//! # Standard input and output
//!
//! Tokio provides asynchronous APIs to standard [input], [output], and [error].
//! These APIs are very similar to the ones provided by `std`, but they also
//! implement [`AsyncRead`] and [`AsyncWrite`].
//!
//! Note that the standard input / output APIs  **must** be used from the
//! context of the Tokio runtime, as they require Tokio-specific features to
//! function. Calling these functions outside of a Tokio runtime will panic.
//!
//! [input]: fn@stdin
//! [output]: fn@stdout
//! [error]: fn@stderr
//!
//! # `std` re-exports
//!
//! Additionally, [`Error`], [`ErrorKind`], [`Result`], and [`SeekFrom`] are
//! re-exported from `std::io` for ease of use.
