Resulty 🐍💞🦀

Resulty is a Python library that provides a Result type for handling errors and exceptions in a functional programming style, inspired by the Result type in Rust 🦀. It offers a wide range of methods and features to handle errors and exceptions in a more expressive and composable way.

Key Features ☝️

Result type for representing success (Ok) or failure (Err) outcomes
Extensive set of methods for checking the state of a Result, unwrapping values, handling errors, and transforming Result values (near 1:1 mapping with Rust's Result methods)
Unique decorator-based error propagation with propagate_result and async_propagate_result, mimicking the ? operator in Rust
Supports both synchronous and asynchronous code

Installation

You can install resulty using pip:

pip install resulty

Creating a `Result`

To create a Result instance, you can use the Ok and Err functions:

from resulty import Ok, Err

# Creating an Ok result
ok_result = Ok(42)

# Creating an Err result
err_result = Err("An error occurred")

Both Ok and Err functions can wrap any value.

Checking the State of a `Result`

resulty provides several methods to check the state of a Result instance and perform conditional operations based on its variant (Ok or Err).

`is_ok()`

The is_ok() method returns True if the Result is an Ok variant, and False otherwise.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

result = Ok(42)
print(result.is_ok())  # Output: True

result = Err("An error occurred")
print(result.is_ok())  # Output: False

`is_ok_and(predicate)`

The is_ok_and(predicate) method returns True if the Result is an Ok variant and the provided predicate function returns True for the contained value. It returns False otherwise.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

result = Ok(42)
print(result.is_ok_and(lambda x: x > 0))  # Output: True
print(result.is_ok_and(lambda x: x < 0))  # Output: False

result = Err("An error occurred")
print(result.is_ok_and(lambda x: True))  # Output: False

`is_err()`

The is_err() method returns True if the Result is an Err variant, and False otherwise.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

result = Ok(42)
print(result.is_err())  # Output: False

result = Err("An error occurred")
print(result.is_err())  # Output: True

`is_err_and(predicate)`

The is_err_and(predicate) method returns True if the Result is an Err variant and the provided predicate function returns True for the contained error. It returns False otherwise.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

result = Ok(42)
print(result.is_err_and(lambda x: True))  # Output: False

result = Err("An error occurred")
print(result.is_err_and(lambda x: len(x) > 0))  # Output: True
print(result.is_err_and(lambda x: len(x) == 0))  # Output: False

`and_also(result)`

The and_also(result) method returns the provided result if the current Result is an Ok variant. If the current Result is an Err variant, it returns the current Result.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
other_result = Ok("Hello")
print(ok_result.and_also(other_result))  # Output: Ok("Hello")

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
print(err_result.and_also(other_result))  # Output: Err("An error occurred")

other_err_result = Err("Another error occurred")
print(err_result.and_also(other_err_result))  # Output: Err("An error occurred")

`or_if(result)`

The or_if(result) method returns the current Result if it is an Ok variant. If the current Result is an Err variant and the provided result is an Ok variant, it returns the provided result. If both the current Result and the provided result are Err variants, it returns the provided result.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
other_ok_result = Ok(0)
err_result = Err("An error occurred")
other_err_result = Err("Another error occurred")

print(ok_result.or_if(other_ok_result))  # Output: Ok(42)
print(ok_result.or_if(err_result))  # Output: Ok(42)
print(err_result.or_if(other_ok_result))  # Output: Ok(0)
print(err_result.or_if(other_err_result))  # Output: Err("Another error occurred")

Unwrapping Values and Handling Errors

resulty provides several methods to safely unwrap the value contained in a Result instance and handle potential errors. These methods allow you to access the contained value or error, or provide default values in case of an Err variant.

`ok()`

The ok() method returns the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant, and None otherwise.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
print(ok_result.ok())  # Output: 42

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
print(err_result.ok())  # Output: None

`err()`

The err() method returns the contained error if the Result is an Err variant, and None otherwise.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
print(ok_result.err())  # Output: None

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
print(err_result.err())  # Output: "An error occurred"

`expect(msg)`

The expect(msg) method returns the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant. If the Result is an Err variant, it raises a ResultException with the provided error message.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
print(ok_result.expect("Expected an Ok value"))  # Output: 42

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
# Raises ResultException with the message "ResultException: Expected an Ok value\nErr(An error occurred)"
err_result.expect("Expected an Ok value")

`expect_err(msg)`

The expect_err(msg) method returns the contained error if the Result is an Err variant. If the Result is an Ok variant, it raises a ResultException with the provided error message.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
# Raises ResultException with the message "ResultException: Expected an Err value\nOk(42)"
ok_result.expect_err("Expected an Err value")

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
print(err_result.expect_err("Expected an Err value"))  # Output: "An error occurred"

`unwrap()`

The unwrap() method returns the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant. If the Result is an Err variant, it raises a ResultException.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
print(ok_result.unwrap())  # Output: 42

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
# Raises ResultException with the message "ResultException: called `.unwrap()` on an `Err` value\nErr(An error occurred)"
err_result.unwrap()

`unwrap_err()`

The unwrap_err() method returns the contained error if the Result is an Err variant. If the Result is an Ok variant, it raises a ResultException.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
# Raises ResultException with the message "ResultException: called `.unwrap_err()` on an `Ok` value\nOk(42)"
ok_result.unwrap_err()

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
print(err_result.unwrap_err())  # Output: "An error occurred"

`unwrap_or(default)`

The unwrap_or(default) method returns the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant. If the Result is an Err variant, it returns the provided default value.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
print(ok_result.unwrap_or(0))  # Output: 42

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
print(err_result.unwrap_or(0))  # Output: 0

`unwrap_or_else(f)`

The unwrap_or_else(f) method returns the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant. If the Result is an Err variant, it calls the provided function f with the contained error and returns the result.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
print(ok_result.unwrap_or_else(lambda x: 0))  # Output: 42

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
print(err_result.unwrap_or_else(lambda x: len(x)))  # Output: 17 (length of the error message)

Transforming and Mapping `Result` Values

resulty provides several methods to transform and map the value contained in a Result instance. These methods allow you to apply functions to the contained value or error, or provide default values in case of an Err variant.

`map(f)`

The map(f) method applies the provided function f to the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant, and returns a new Result with the mapped value. If the Result is an Err variant, it returns the original Result without applying the function.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
mapped_result = ok_result.map(lambda x: x * 2)
print(mapped_result)  # Output: Ok(84)

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
mapped_result = err_result.map(lambda x: x * 2)
print(mapped_result)  # Output: Err("An error occurred")

`map_err(f)`

The map_err(f) method applies the provided function f to the contained error if the Result is an Err variant, and returns a new Result with the mapped error. If the Result is an Ok variant, it returns the original Result without applying the function.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
mapped_result = ok_result.map_err(lambda x: f"Error: {x}")
print(mapped_result)  # Output: Ok(42)

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
mapped_result = err_result.map_err(lambda x: f"Error: {x}")
print(mapped_result)  # Output: Err("Error: An error occurred")

`map_or(default, f)`

The map_or(default, f) method applies the provided function f to the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant, and returns the result. If the Result is an Err variant, it returns the provided default value.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
mapped_value = ok_result.map_or(0, lambda x: x * 2)
print(mapped_value)  # Output: 84

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
mapped_value = err_result.map_or(0, lambda x: x * 2)
print(mapped_value)  # Output: 0

`map_or_else(default, f)`

The map_or_else(default, f) method applies the provided function f to the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant, and returns the result. If the Result is an Err variant, it calls the provided function default with the contained error and returns the result.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
mapped_value = ok_result.map_or_else(lambda x: 0, lambda x: x * 2)
print(mapped_value)  # Output: 84

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
mapped_value = err_result.map_or_else(lambda x: len(x), lambda x: x * 2)
print(mapped_value)  # Output: 18

Combining `Result` Values

resulty provides several methods to combine and chain multiple Result values together. These methods allow you to perform operations on the contained values or errors of multiple Result instances.

`and_then(f)`

The and_then(f) method applies the provided function f to the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant, and returns the result of f as a new Result. If the Result is an Err variant, it returns the original Result without applying the function.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
combined_result = ok_result.and_then(lambda x: Ok(x * 2))
print(combined_result)  # Output: Ok(84)

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
combined_result = err_result.and_then(lambda x: Ok(x * 2))
print(combined_result)  # Output: Err("An error occurred")

`or_else(f)`

The or_else(f) method applies the provided function f to the contained error if the Result is an Err variant, and returns the result of f as a new Result. If the Result is an Ok variant, it returns the original Result without applying the function.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
combined_result = ok_result.or_else(lambda x: Err(f"Error: {x}"))
print(combined_result)  # Output: Ok(42)

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
combined_result = err_result.or_else(lambda x: Ok(0))
print(combined_result)  # Output: Ok(0)

`inspect(f)`

The inspect(f) method applies the provided function f to the contained value if the Result is an Ok variant, and returns the original Result. The function f is executed for its side effects and does not affect the returned Result.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
inspected_result = ok_result.inspect(lambda x: print(f"Value: {x}")) # Output: Value: 42
print(inspected_result) # Output: Ok(42)

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
inspected_result = err_result.inspect(lambda x: print(f"Value: {x}")) # No output
print(inspected_result)  # Output: Err("An error occurred")

`inspect_err(f)`

The inspect_err(f) method applies the provided function f to the contained error if the Result is an Err variant, and returns the original Result. The function f is executed for its side effects and does not affect the returned Result.

Example:

from resulty import Ok, Err

ok_result = Ok(42)
inspected_result = ok_result.inspect_err(lambda x: print(f"Error: {x}")) # No output
print(inspected_result)  # Output: Ok(42)

err_result = Err("An error occurred")
inspected_result = err_result.inspect_err(lambda x: print(f"Error: {x}")) # Output: Error: An error occurred
print(inspected_result)  # Output: Err("An error occurred")

Error Propagation with Decorators

resulty provides decorators that simplify error propagation and handling in function calls. These decorators allow you to automatically propagate errors when calling other functions that return a Result and handle them in a more concise and readable way. They try to mimic the ? operator in Rust for error propagation.

`@propagate_result`

The @propagate_result decorator is used to automatically propagate errors from called functions that return a Result. When a function decorated with @propagate_result calls another function that returns a Result, it can use the up() method to unwrap the value if it's an Ok variant, or propagate the error if it's an Err variant.

Example:

from resulty import Result, Ok, Err, propagate_result

def divide(a: int, b: int) -> Result[float, str]:
    if b == 0:
        return Err("Cannot divide by zero")
    return Ok(a / b)

@propagate_result
def calculate() -> Result[float, str]:
    result1 = divide(10, 2).up()
    result2 = divide(20, 4).up()
    return Ok(result1 + result2)

result = calculate()
print(result)  # Output: Ok(10.0)

@propagate_result
def calculate_with_error() -> Result[float, str]:
    result1 = divide(10, 2).up()
    result2 = divide(20, 0).up() # Raises PropagatedResultException
    return Ok(result1 + result2)

result = calculate_with_error()
print(result) # Output: Err("Cannot divide by zero")

In this example, the calculate function is decorated with @propagate_result. It calls the divide function twice and uses the up() method to unwrap the values if they are Ok variants. If any of the calls to divide return an Err variant, the up() method will raise a PropagatedResultException, which will be caught by the @propagate_result decorator and returned as an Err variant.

`@async_propagate_result`

The @async_propagate_result decorator works similarly to @propagate_result, but it is used for asynchronous functions. It automatically propagates errors when calling other functions that return a Result and uses the up() method to unwrap the values or propagate the errors.

Example:

from resulty import Result, Ok, Err, async_propagate_result

async def async_divide(a: int, b: int) -> Result[float, str]:
    if b == 0:
        return Err("Cannot divide by zero")
    return Ok(a / b)

@async_propagate_result
async def async_calculate() -> Result[float, str]:
    result1 = (await async_divide(10, 2)).up()
    result2 = (await async_divide(20, 4)).up()
    return Ok(result1 + result2)

async def main():
    result = await async_calculate()
    print(result)  # Output: Ok(10.0)

import asyncio
asyncio.run(main())

In this example, the async_calculate function is decorated with @async_propagate_result. It calls the async_divide function twice and uses the up() method to unwrap the values if they are Ok variants. If any of the calls to async_divide return an Err variant, the up() method will raise a PropagatedResultException, which will be caught by the @async_propagate_result decorator and returned as an Err variant.

These decorators provide a convenient way to handle error propagation when calling other functions that return a Result. By using these decorators and the up() method, you can write more concise and readable code when working with Result values and error handling.
