An implementation of the Result and the Optional FP monad in Typescript. This library was inspired by the handling of these monads in the standard Rust library. Asynchronous functions can be chained.
See the example folder in src/example.
function optionalExample(req?: string): string {
const reqOrNone = Optional(req);
return reqOrNone.match(
(reqVal: string) => {
return `Request value is: ${reqVal}`;
},
() => {
return `Request value is: None`;
}
);
}class SimpleError {
public name: string;
public message: string;
constructor(message: string) {
name: `SimpleError`;
this.message = message;
}
public pretty(): string {
return `[${this.name}] ${this.message}`;
}
public throw(): void {
throw new Error(this.pretty());
}
}
function resultExample(req?: string): Result<string> {
const reqOrNone = Optional(req);
const reqOrErr = reqOrNone.okOr(new SimpleError(`Request doesn't exist`));
return reqOrErr;
}
function resultExample2(req?: string): Result<string> {
try {
if (Optional(req).isNone()) throw new Error('Some error!');
return Result.Ok(req);
} catch (error) {
return Result.Fail(new SimpleError(`Request doesn't exist`));
}
}Implement a proxy to chain async functions without add async declaration in each
sentence.
