A secure cross-platform temporary file library for rust. This library should be race free, reliable, and secure in the presence of pathological temporary file cleaners.

crates.io: https://crates.io/crates/tempfile

Example:

use tempfile::TempFile;
use std::io::{Write, Read, Seek, SeekFrom};

// Write
let mut tmpfile = TempFile::new().unwrap();
write!(tmpfile, "Hello World!").unwrap();

// Seek to start
tmpfile.seek(SeekFrom::Start(0)).unwrap();

// Read
let mut buf = String::new();
tmpfile.read_to_string(&mut buf).unwrap();
assert_eq!("abcde", buf);

Redirect stderr/stdout output to a file, temporary buffer, temporary buffer that prints on drop, or /dev/null. Currently, this library only supports *nix operating systems.

Use cases:

• Work around misbehaving libraries.

• Log panics to a file by redirecting stderr.

In general, you shouldn't need this functionality but it's annoying to implement so I figured I'd publish it.

CoatCheck is a library for storing values and referencing them by "handles" (Tickets). This library is designed to be used where you would otherwise use a hash table but you don't actually need to be able to choose the keys.

Advantages:

• You don't have to generate your keys.
• CoatCheck is at about 5x faster for insert/remove operations than the stdlib HashTable (and could probably be faster).
• CoatCheck is ~40x faster for lookups (it's an array lookup).

Design question:

Currently, Tickets can't be copied. You can use a reference to a ticket to get a reference to the associated value but to "claim" the value (get it out of the CoatCheck) you need to give up the ticket.

Pros:

• Owner
