Functions

Calls the next function only if it receives an ok tuple. Otherwise it skips the call and returns the error tuple.

Calls the first function if it receives an error tuple, and the second one if it receives an ok tuple.

Creates a new error result tuple.

Checks if a result_tuple is an error.

Promotes any value to a result tuple.

Converts an Ok value to an Error value if the predicate is not valid.

Calls the next function only if it receives an ok tuple. The function unwraps the value from the tuple, calls the next function and wraps it back into an ok tuple.

Calls the next function only if it receives an error tuple. The function unwraps the value from the tuple, calls the next function and wraps it back into an error tuple.

Creates a new ok result tuple.

Checks if a result_tuple is ok.

Calls the next function only if it receives an error tuple. Otherwise it skips the call and returns the ok tuple. It expects the function to return a new result tuple.

Converts an Ok value to an Error value if the predicate is valid.

Transforms a list of result tuple to a result tuple containing either the first error tuple or an ok tuple containing the list of values.

Calls the next function only if it receives an ok tuple but discards the result. It always returns the original tuple.

Calls the next function only if it receives an error tuple but discards the result. It always returns the original tuple.

Returns the content of an ok tuple if the value is correct. Otherwise it returns the default value.

Specs

keep_if(result_tuple(), (any() -> boolean()), any()) :: result_tuple()

Converts an Ok value to an Error value if the predicate is not valid.

Examples

iex> res = StrawHat.Response.ok(10)
...> StrawHat.Response.keep_if(res, &(&1 > 5))
{:ok, 10}

iex> res = StrawHat.Response.ok(10)
...> StrawHat.Response.keep_if(res, &(&1 > 10), "must be > of 10")

{:error, :no_value}

Specs

map(result_tuple(), (any() -> any())) :: result_tuple()

Calls the next function only if it receives an ok tuple. The function unwraps the value from the tuple, calls the next function and wraps it back into an ok tuple.

Examples

iex> business_logic = fn x -> x * 2 end
...> 21 |> StrawHat.Response.ok() |> StrawHat.Response.map(business_logic)
{:ok, 42}

iex> business_logic = fn x -> x * 2 end

map_error(data, function)

Specs

map_error(result_tuple(), (any() -> any())) :: result_tuple()

Calls the next function only if it receives an error tuple. The function unwraps the value from the tuple, calls the next function and wraps it back into an error tuple.

iex> better_error = fn _ -> "A better error message" end
...> 42 |> StrawHat.Response.ok() |> StrawHat.Response.map_error(better_error)
