The code below reads the user-selected input file entirely. This requires a lot of memory for very large (> 10 GB) files. I need to read a file line by line.
How can I read a file in Pyodide one line at a time?
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/pyodide/v0.22.1/full/pyodide.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<button>Analyze input</button>
<script type="text/javascript">
async function main() {
// Get the file contents into JS
const [fileHandle] = await showOpenFilePicker();
const fileData = await fileHandle.getFile();
const contents = await fileData.text();
// Create the Python convert toy function
let pyodide = await loadPyodide();
let convert = pyodide.runPython(`
from pyodide.ffi import to_js
def convert(contents):
return to_js(contents.lower())
convert
`);
let result = convert(contents);
console.log(result);
const blob = new Blob([result], {type : 'application/text'});
let url = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
var downloadLink = document.createElement("a");
downloadLink.href = url;
downloadLink.text = "Download output";
downloadLink.download = "out.txt";
document.body.appendChild(downloadLink);
}
const button = document.querySelector('button');
button.addEventListener('click', main);
</script>
</body>
</html>
The code is from this answer to question "Select and read a file from user's filesystem".
Based on the answer by rth, I used the code below. It still has 2 issues:
- The chunks break some lines into parts, as shown on the example input file, which has 100 chars per line. The console log (below) shows that this is not always the case for chunks (thus, lines in chunks are broken not at the newline).
- I cannot get the variable
resultto be written into the output file, which is available for download to the user (see below, where for the example purposes it is replaced by a dummy string'result').

print(len(line))

// Get the file contents into JS
const bytes_func = pyodide.globals.get('bytes');
const [fileHandle] = await showOpenFilePicker();
let fh = await fileHandle.getFile()
const stream = fh.stream();
const reader = stream.getReader();
// Do a loop until end of file
while( true ) {
const { done, value } = await reader.read();
if( done ) { break; }
handleChunk( value );
}
console.log( "all done" );
function handleChunk( buf ) {
console.log( "received a new buffer", buf.byteLength );
let result = convert(bytes_func(buf).decode('utf-8'));
}
const blob = new Blob(['result'], {type : 'application/text'});
let url = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);

Given this input file with 100 characters per line:
perl -le 'for (1..1e5) { print "0" x 100 }' > test_100x1e5.txt
I am getting this console log output, indicating that lines are broken not at the newline:

If I change from this:
const blob = new Blob(['result'], {type : 'application/text'});
to that:
const blob = new Blob([result], {type : 'application/text'});
then I get the error:
Uncaught (in promise) ReferenceError: result is not defined
