Name

saveStream()

Description

Save the contents of a stream to a file in the sketch folder. This is basically saveBytes(blah, loadBytes()), but done more efficiently (and with less confusing syntax).

The target parameter can be either a String specifying a file name, or, for greater control over the file location, a File object. (Note that, unlike some other functions, this will not automatically compress or uncompress gzip files.)

Syntax

  • saveStream(target, source)

Parameters

  • target(String, File)name of the file to write to
  • source(String)location to read from (a filename, path, or URL)

Return

  • boolean or void
