std::fs::write - Rust
Description: API documentation for the Rust `write` fn in crate `std`.
Keywords: rust, rustlang, rust-lang, write

# Function std::fs::write [−] [src]

    pub fn write<P: AsRef<Path>, C: AsRef<[u8]>>(path: P, contents: C) -> Result<()>

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`fs_read_write` #46588)

Write a slice as the entire contents of a file.

This function will create a file if it does not exist, and will entirely replace its contents if it does.

This is a convenience function for using `File::create` and `write_all` with fewer imports.

# Examples

    #![feature(fs_read_write)]

    use std::fs;

    fs::write("foo.txt", b"Lorem ipsum")?;Run

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
