Function std.file.readText
Reads and validates (using validate) a text file. S can be
an array of any character type. However, no width or endian conversions are
performed. So, if the width or endianness of the characters in the given
file differ from the width or endianness of the element type of S, then
validation will fail.
S readText(S, R)
(
auto ref R name
)
if (isSomeString!S && (isSomeFiniteCharInputRange!R || is(StringTypeOf!R)));
Parameters
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| S | the string type of the file |
| name | string or range of characters representing the file name |
Returns
Array of characters read.
Throws
FileException if there is an error reading the file,
UTFException on UTF decoding error.
See Also

Example
Read file with UTF-8 text.
write(deleteme, "abc"); // deleteme is the name of a temporary file
scope(exit) remove(deleteme);
string content = readText(deleteme);
writeln(content); // "abc"
