multiple_result

Result package for dart inspired by the work of dartz's Either and Kotlin's sealed classes.

This package is perfect to those of you who just want the Multiple results functionality from dartz. 👌

How to use it

In the return of a function, set it to return a Result type;

Result getSomethingPretty();

then add the Success and the Error types.


Result<String, Exception> getSomethingPretty() {

}

in return of the function, you just need to return

return Success('Something Pretty');

or

return Error(Exception('something ugly happened...'));

The function should look something like this:


Result<String, Exception> getSomethingPretty() {
    if(isOk) {
        return Success('OK!');
    } else {
        return Error(Exception('Not Ok!'));
    }
}

Handling the Result with when

void main() {
    final result = getSomethingPretty();
     final String message = result.when(
         (error) {
          // handle the error here
          return "error";
        }, (success) {
          // handle the success here
          return "success";
        },
    );

}

Handling the Result with onSuccess or onError

    final result = getSomethingPretty();
    // notice the [onSuccess] or [onError] will only be executed if
    // the result is a Success or an Error respectivaly. 
    final output = result.onSuccess((name) {
        // handle here the success
        return "";
    });
    
    final result = getSomethingPretty();
    
    // [result] is NOT an Error, this [output] will be null.
    final output = result.onError((exception) {
        // handle here the error
        return "";
    });

Handling the Result with get

note: [get] is now deprecated and will be removed in the next version.

void main() {
    final result = getSomethingPretty();

    String? mySuccessResult;
    if (result.isSuccess()) {
      mySuccessResult = result.get();
    }
}

Handling the Result with tryGetSuccess

void main() {
    final result = getSomethingPretty();

    String? mySuccessResult;
    if (result.isSuccess()) {
      mySuccessResult = result.tryGetSuccess();
    }
}

Handling the Result with tryGetError

void main() {
    final result = getSomethingPretty();

    Exception? myException;
    if (result.isError()) {
      myException = result.tryGetError();
    }
}
