is_file_like
(obj)[source]¶ Check if the object is a file-like object.
For objects to be considered file-like, they must be an iterator AND have either a read and/or write method as an attribute.
Note: file-like objects must be iterable, but iterable objects need not be file-like.
New in version 0.20.0.
Parameters: obj : The object to check.
Returns: is_file_like : bool
Whether obj has file-like properties.
Examples
>>> buffer(StringIO("data")) >>> is_file_like(buffer) True >>> is_file_like([1, 2, 3]) False
