README

Provides a Result type implementation for PHP using ghostwriter/option

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require ghostwriter/result

Usage

use Ghostwriter\Result\Error;
use Ghostwriter\Result\Success;

// --- Success ---
$success = Success::new('Hello world!');
$success->unwrap(); // 'Hello world!'

// --- Failure ---
$failure = Failure::new(new ExampleException());
$failure->unwrap(); // throws: ResultException
$failure->unwrapOr('Fallback'); // 'Fallback'
$failure->unwrapError(); // returns: instance of ExampleException

// --- Example ---
function divide(int $x, int $y): ResultInterface
{
    if ($y === 0) {
        return Failure::new(new DivisionByZeroError);
    }

    return Success::new($x / $y);
}

divide(1, 0); // Error(DivisionByZeroError)
divide(1, 1); // Success(1)
