Convert HttpPostedBase to format usable with File.ReadAllLines()

Question

I want to be able to use the code block below, but instead of using a saved file I have an uploaded file as a HttpPostedFileBase. How to I convert that to an equivalent format where I can use the contents of the uploaded file with the code below without saving it first?

  List<DailyValues> values = File.ReadAllLines("C:\\Users\\Josh\\Sample.csv")
                                               .Skip(1)
                                               .Select(v => DailyValues.FromCsv(v))
                                               .ToList();

Answer 1

You can't. The best way is to read the data as a Stream from the InputStream property on that object.
