result

result

The result composite of go-composites — the value every fallible operation returns. A Result pairs a payload with an Error, so success and failure travel together as one value: no (value, ok), no panics, no bare nil. A fresh Result.New() defaults to a Null payload and a NullError, so it represents a successful, empty outcome.

Usage

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	Result "github.com/go-composites/result/src"
	Error "github.com/go-composites/error/src"
)

func main() {
	ok := Result.New(Result.WithPayload(42))
	fmt.Println(ok.HasError(), ok.Payload()) // false 42

	bad := Result.New(Result.WithError(Error.New("key not found")))
	fmt.Println(bad.HasError(), bad.Error().Message()) // true key not found

	empty := Result.New()
	fmt.Println(empty.HasError()) // false  (Null payload + NullError)
}
