is_file_like(obj) -> bool

For objects to be considered file-like, they must be an iterator AND have either a :None:None:`read` and/or :None:None:`write` method as an attribute.

Note: file-like objects must be iterable, but iterable objects need not be file-like.

Parameters

obj : The object to check

Returns

is_file_like : bool

Whether :None:None:`obj` has file-like properties.

Check if the object is a file-like object.

Examples

This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> import io
... buffer = io.StringIO("data")
... is_file_like(buffer) True
This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> is_file_like([1, 2, 3])
False

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
