function as_result

as_result(
    *exceptions: 'Type[TBE]'
) → Callable[[Callable[P, R]], Callable[P, Result[R, TBE]]]

Make a decorator to turn a function into one that returns a Result.

Regular return values are turned into Ok(return_value). Raised exceptions of the specified exception type(s) are turned into Err(exc).

---

function as_async_result

as_async_result(
    *exceptions: 'Type[TBE]'
) → Callable[[Callable[P, Awaitable[R]]], Callable[P, Awaitable[Result[R, TBE]]]]

Make a decorator to turn an async function into one that returns a Result. Regular return values are turned into Ok(return_value). Raised exceptions of the specified exception type(s) are turned into Err(exc).

---

function is_ok

is_ok(result: 'Result[T, E]') → TypeIs[Ok[T]]

A type guard to check if a result is an Ok

Usage:

r: Result[int, str] = get_a_result()
if is_ok(r):
     r   # r is of type Ok[int]
elif is_err(r):
     r   # r is of type Err[str]

---

function is_err

is_err(result: 'Result[T, E]') → TypeIs[Err[E]]

A type guard to check if a result is an Err

Usage:

r: Result[int, str] = get_a_result()
if is_ok(r):
     r   # r is of type Ok[int]
elif is_err(r):
     r   # r is of type Err[str]

---

function do

do(gen: 'Generator[Result[T, E], None, None]') → Result[T, E]

Do notation for Result (syntactic sugar for sequence of and_then() calls).

Usage:

// This is similar to
use do_notation::m;
let final_result = m! {
     x <- Ok("hello");
     y <- Ok(True);
     Ok(len(x) + int(y) + 0.5)
};

final_result: Result[float, int] = do(
         Ok(len(x) + int(y) + 0.5)
         for x in Ok("hello")
         for y in Ok(True)
     )

NOTE: If you exclude the type annotation e.g. Result[float, int] your type checker might be unable to infer the return type. To avoid an error, you might need to help it with the type hint.

---

function do_async

do_async(
    gen: 'Union[Generator[Result[T, E], None, None], AsyncGenerator[Result[T, E], None]]'
) → Result[T, E]

Async version of do. Example:

final_result: Result[float, int] = await do_async(
     Ok(len(x) + int(y) + z)
         for x in await get_async_result_1()
         for y in await get_async_result_2()
         for z in get_sync_result_3()
     )

NOTE: Python makes generators async in a counter-intuitive way.

# This is a regular generator:
     async def foo(): ...
     do(Ok(1) for x in await foo())

# But this is an async generator:
     async def foo(): ...
     async def bar(): ...
     do(
         Ok(1)
         for x in await foo()
         for y in await bar()
     )

We let users try to use regular do(), which works in some cases of awaiting async values. If we hit a case like above, we raise an exception telling the user to use do_async() instead. See do().

However, for better usability, it's better for do_async() to also accept regular generators, as you get in the first case:

async def foo(): ...
     do(Ok(1) for x in await foo())

Furthermore, neither mypy nor pyright can infer that the second case is actually an async generator, so we cannot annotate do_async() as accepting only an async generator. This is additional motivation to accept either.

---

A value that indicates success and which stores arbitrary data for the return value.

method __init__

__init__(value: 'T') → None

Return the inner value.

@deprecated Use ok_value or err_value instead. This method will be removed in a future version.

---

method map_async

map_async(op: 'Callable[[T], Awaitable[U]]') → Ok[U]

---

class DoException

This is used to signal to do() that the result is an Err, which short-circuits the generator and returns that Err. Using this exception for control flow in do() allows us to simulate and_then() in the Err case: namely, we don't call op, we just return self (the Err).

class UnwrapError

Exception raised from .unwrap_<...> and .expect_<...> calls.

The original Result can be accessed via the .result attribute, but this is not intended for regular use, as type information is lost: UnwrapError doesn't know about both T and E, since it's raised from Ok() or Err() which only knows about either T or E, not both.

method __init__

__init__(result: 'Result[object, object]', message: 'str') → None

---

property result

Returns the original result.
