# core2
[](https://github.com/bbqsrc/core2/actions)
[](https://docs.rs/core2)
Ever wanted a `Cursor` or the `Error` trait in `no_std`? Well now you can have it. A 'fork' of Rust's `std` modules for `no_std` environments, with the added benefit of optionally taking advantage of `alloc`.
The goal of this crate is to provide a stable interface for building I/O and error trait functionality in
`no_std` environments. The current code corresponds to the most recent stable API of Rust 1.47.0.
It is also a goal to achieve a true alloc-less experience, with opt-in alloc support.
This crate works on `stable` with some limitations in functionality, and `nightly` without limitations by adding
the relevant feature flag.
This crate is `std` by default -- use no default features to get `no_std` mode.
## Usage
```toml
[dependencies]
core2 = "0.3"
```
Add the crate, use the things you would usually want from `std::io`, but instead from `core2::io`, and
use `core2::error::Error` in place of `std::error::Error`.
### Features
- **std**: enables `std` pass-throughs for the polyfilled types, but allows accessing the new types
- **alloc**: enable aspects of the `Read` and `Write` traits that require `alloc` support (WIP)
- **nightly**: enables **nightly**-only features, such as `BufReader` and `BufWriter` with const generic buffers.
### Differences to `std::io`
- No `std::io::Error`, so we have our own copy without any `Os` error functions
- `IoSlice` and the `*_vectored` family of functions are not implemented.
- `BufReader` and `BufWriter` have a different signature, as they now use a const generic bounded array for the internal buffer. (Requires **nightly** feature)
Other than items perhaps being entirely missing or certain functions unavailable on some traits, no function signatures have been changed.
### Limitations
- Using the buffer types currently requires **nightly** due to the use of const generics.
- Using `copy` or the buffer types with `std` support currently requires **nightly** due to the `initializer` API.
## Where is it used?
All of the below are works in progress, but should help with demonstrating how to use this crate.
- [thiserror_core2](https://github.com/bbqsrc/thiserror-core2): fork of `thiserror` using the `core2::error::Error` trait.
