ByteIOStream

Get Stream like API with byte/char buffers in Arduino.

Useful when working with Streams, and need to use static array for same task, like parsing large data from a source

Data source (Reading from stream)

The library provides two methods to set data source to read from.

1. setInputSource(uint8_t* buffer,size_t size, size_t offset)

   This method adds an array as the input source, to read from when calls to read are made() Each subsequent byte is returned on call to read()

2. setInputSource(Stream& readStream)

   This method adds a Stream to read from, when calls to read() are made.

3. void resetReadSource();

   This method resets any read source set. Any subsequent calls to read will return -1.

4. bool seek(int count);

   Move the read position ahead or back. Positive count skips count number of bytes, and negative count makes count bytes available to read again.

   Returns true on success else false. Backward movement is possible only if the source is a buffer.

   Note: Only one input source is supported. Adding another, will discard the older source.

Writing to Stream

To get the data that is written to stream, a callback/Stream shoud be set with:

1. setWriteCallback(< function name >);

   The signature of the functions shoud be void foo(uint8_t*,size_t). This function will be called when something will be printed to the stream.

2. setWriteStream(Stream& writeStream)

   The received data will be sent to the specified stream, instread of calling a function.

3. void resetWriteDestination()

   This method resets the write destination. Any subsequent writes to the stream will be discarded.

   Only one write destination can be used. Using another, will discard the older write destination.

All other functions of the Stream class such as,parseInt(),read(),peek().. are supported (kudos to Inheritance).
