4.7 StringIO -- Read and write strings as files

This module implements a file-like class, StringIO, that reads and writes a string buffer (also known as memory files). See the description on file objects for operations (section 2.1.7).

StringIO ([buffer])

When a StringIO object is created, it can be initialized to an existing string by passing the string to the constructor. If no string is given, the StringIO will start empty.

The following methods of StringIO objects require special mention:

getvalue ()

Retrieve the entire contents of the ``file'' at any time before the StringIO object's close() method is called.

close ()

Free the memory buffer.
