In IO::Handle§

See primary documentation in context for method chomp.

has $.chomp is rw = True

One of the attributes that can be set via .new or open. Defaults to True. Takes a Bool specifying whether the line separators (as defined by .nl-in) should be removed from content when using .get or .lines methods.

In Allomorph§

See primary documentation in context for method chomp.

method chomp(Allomorph:D:)

Calls Str.chomp on the invocant's Str value.

In Str§

See primary documentation in context for routine chomp.

multi        chomp(Str:D  --> Str:D)
multi method chomp(Str:D: --> Str:D)

Returns the string with a logical newline (any codepoint that has the NEWLINE property) removed from the end.

Examples:

say chomp("abc\n");       # OUTPUT: «abc␤»
say "def\r\n".chomp;      # OUTPUT: «def␤» NOTE: \r\n is a single grapheme!
say "foo\r".chomp;        # OUTPUT: «foo␤»

In IO::CatHandle§

See primary documentation in context for method chomp.

method chomp(IO::CatHandle:D:) is rw

Sets the invocant's $.chomp attribute to the assigned value. All source handles, including the active one will use the provided $.chomp value.

(my $f1 = 'foo'.IO).spurt: "A\nB\nC\n";
(my $f2 = 'bar'.IO).spurt: "D\nE\n";
with IO::CatHandle.new: $f1, $f2 {
    # .chomp is True by default:
    (.get xx 2).raku.say; # OUTPUT: «("A", "B").Seq␤»

    .chomp = False;
    (.get xx 3).raku.say; # OUTPUT: «("C\n", "D\n", "E\n").Seq␤»
    .close
}

In Cool§

See primary documentation in context for routine chomp.

sub chomp(Str(Cool))
method chomp()

Coerces the invocant (or in sub form, its argument) to Str, and returns it with the last character removed, if it is a logical newline.

say 'ab'.chomp.chars;                   # OUTPUT: «2␤»
say "a\n".chomp.chars;                  # OUTPUT: «1␤»
