working with files in Pashmak is so easy.
we have 4 main operations on files: Open, Read, Write, Close
look at this example for reading content of a file:
$my_file = open('/path/to/some/file.txt', 'r')
println($my_file->read())
$my_file->close()
In above example, we opened our file, read content and then we closed that.
the $file->read(), the read method reads content of file and returns that.
you can put that in a variable:
$content = $file->read()
to write content of a file, we can use write method:
$my_file = open('/path/to/some/file.txt', 'w')
$my_file->write('new content')
$my_file->close()
The second argument for opening file is type of opening. r means Read and w means write.
Also you can use fopen function instead of open. this is not different, just is an alias.
The file objects in Pashmak are handled by python you can use all of python file features in Pashmak like python.
