# atomicwriter

Atomic file writer for Go. It uses a temporary file for writing, and when close

is performed - the temporary file is renamed back to the original file name.

Rename is supposed to be atomic (as it is on most platforms).

Example:

``` go

package main

import (

	"log"

	"github.com/zserge/atomicwriter"

)

func main() {

	f, err := atomicwriter.NewWriter("file.txt")

	if err != nil {

		log.Panic(err)

	}

	defer f.Close()

	f.Write([]byte("Hello"))

	f.Write([]byte("world"))

	f.Write([]byte("\n"))

}

```
