dxw/result
==========

[](#dxwresult)

Meant to be a drop-in replacement for [nikita2206/result](https://github.com/nikita2206/result), with one addition: `wrap()`.

`wrap()` was inspired by [github.com/pkg/errors](https://godoc.org/github.com/pkg/errors#Wrap).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require dxw/result

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Returning values:

```
function myfunc(): \Dxw\Result\Result
{
    if (/* error */) {
        // getErr() will return 'something went wrong'
        return \Dxw\Result\Result::err('something went wrong');
    }

    return \Dxw\Result\Result::ok($value);
}

```

Handling `Result` values:

```
$result = myfunc();
if ($result->isErr()) {
    echo sprintf("Error: %s\n", $result->getErr());
    exit(1);
}
$value = $result->unwrap();

```

Returning errors from other errors:

```
function anotherfunc(): \Dxw\Result\Result
{
    $result = myfunc();
    if ($result->isErr()) {
        // getErr() will return 'got invalid value: something went wrong'
        return $result->wrap('got invalid value');
    }
    // do something with $result->unwrap()
}

```
