jdwx/result
===========

[](#jdwxresult)

Installation

composer require jdwx/result
```

Or download the source from GitHub:

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

This module requires PHP 8.3 or later.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

This module provides a simple way to report the results of a function call, including success/failure state and a message. It is **loosely** inspired by the `Result` type in Rust.

Here is a basic usage example:

```
function ExampleFunction() : Result {
    return match( random_int( 0, 1 ) ) {
        0 => Result::err( 'This is an error message.' ),
        1 => Result::ok( 'This is an example message.', 42 ),
    };
}

$result = ExampleFunction();
if( $result->isOK() ) {
    echo "Success ({$result}) with value: ", $result->unwrap(), "\n";
} else {
    echo "Error: {$result}\n";

    # This will throw an exception
    $result->unwrap();
}
```

Stability
---------

[](#stability)

This module is considered stable and is used in production code.

History
-------

[](#history)

This module was refactored out of a private repository in September 2025 when the same functionality was needed for an unrelated project. DRY!
