Enum std::result::Result

#[must_use]
pub enum Result<T, E> {
    Ok(T),
    Err(E),
}

Result is a type that represents either success (Ok) or failure (Err).

See the std::result module documentation for details.

Variants

Ok	Contains the success value
Err	Contains the error value

Methods

impl<T, E> Result<T, E>

fn is_ok(&self) -> bool

Returns true if the result is Ok

Examples

let x: Result<i32, &str> = Ok(-3);
assert_eq!(x.is_ok(), true);

let x: Result<i32, &str> = Err("Some error message");
assert_eq!(x.is_ok(), false);

fn is_err(&self) -> bool

Returns true if the result is Err

Examples

let x: Result<i32, &str> = Ok(-3);
assert_eq!(x.is_err(), false);

let x: Result<i32, &str> = Err("Some error message");
assert_eq!(x.is_err(), true);

fn ok(self) -> Option<T>

Converts from Result<T, E> to Option<T>

Converts self into an Option<T>, consuming self, and discarding the error, if any.

Examples

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
assert_eq!(x.ok(), Some(2));

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("Nothing here");
assert_eq!(x.ok(), None);

fn err(self) -> Option<E>

Converts from Result<T, E> to Option<E>

Converts self into an Option<E>, consuming self, and discarding the success value, if any.

Examples

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
assert_eq!(x.err(), None);

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("Nothing here");
assert_eq!(x.err(), Some("Nothing here"));

fn as_ref(&self) -> Result<&T, &E>

Converts from Result<T, E> to Result<&T, &E>

Produces a new Result, containing a reference into the original, leaving the original in place.

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
assert_eq!(x.as_ref(), Ok(&2));

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("Error");
assert_eq!(x.as_ref(), Err(&"Error"));

fn as_mut(&mut self) -> Result<&mut T, &mut E>

Converts from Result<T, E> to Result<&mut T, &mut E>

fn mutate(r: &mut Result<i32, i32>) {
    match r.as_mut() {
        Ok(&mut ref mut v) => *v = 42,
        Err(&mut ref mut e) => *e = 0,
    }
}

let mut x: Result<i32, i32> = Ok(2);
mutate(&mut x);
assert_eq!(x.unwrap(), 42);

let mut x: Result<i32, i32> = Err(13);
mutate(&mut x);
assert_eq!(x.unwrap_err(), 0);

fn map<U, F>(self, op: F) -> Result<U, E> where F: FnOnce(T) -> U

Maps a Result<T, E> to Result<U, E> by applying a function to a contained Ok value, leaving an Err value untouched.

This function can be used to compose the results of two functions.

Examples

Print the numbers on each line of a string multiplied by two.

let line = "1\n2\n3\n4\n";

for num in line.lines() {
    match num.parse::<i32>().map(|i| i * 2) {
        Ok(n) => println!("{}", n),
        Err(..) => {}
    }
}

fn map_err<F, O>(self, op: O) -> Result<T, F> where O: FnOnce(E) -> F

Maps a Result<T, E> to Result<T, F> by applying a function to a contained Err value, leaving an Ok value untouched.

This function can be used to pass through a successful result while handling an error.

Examples

fn stringify(x: u32) -> String { format!("error code: {}", x) }

let x: Result<u32, u32> = Ok(2);
assert_eq!(x.map_err(stringify), Ok(2));

let x: Result<u32, u32> = Err(13);
assert_eq!(x.map_err(stringify), Err("error code: 13".to_string()));

fn iter(&self) -> Iter<T>

Returns an iterator over the possibly contained value.

Examples

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(7);
assert_eq!(x.iter().next(), Some(&7));

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("nothing!");
assert_eq!(x.iter().next(), None);

fn iter_mut(&mut self) -> IterMut<T>

Returns a mutable iterator over the possibly contained value.

Examples

let mut x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(7);
match x.iter_mut().next() {
    Some(v) => *v = 40,
    None => {},
}
assert_eq!(x, Ok(40));

let mut x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("nothing!");
assert_eq!(x.iter_mut().next(), None);

fn and<U>(self, res: Result<U, E>) -> Result<U, E>

Returns res if the result is Ok, otherwise returns the Err value of self.

Examples

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
let y: Result<&str, &str> = Err("late error");
assert_eq!(x.and(y), Err("late error"));

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("early error");
let y: Result<&str, &str> = Ok("foo");
assert_eq!(x.and(y), Err("early error"));

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("not a 2");
let y: Result<&str, &str> = Err("late error");
assert_eq!(x.and(y), Err("not a 2"));

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
let y: Result<&str, &str> = Ok("different result type");
assert_eq!(x.and(y), Ok("different result type"));

fn and_then<U, F>(self, op: F) -> Result<U, E> where F: FnOnce(T) -> Result<U, E>

Calls op if the result is Ok, otherwise returns the Err value of self.

This function can be used for control flow based on result values.

Examples

fn sq(x: u32) -> Result<u32, u32> { Ok(x * x) }
fn err(x: u32) -> Result<u32, u32> { Err(x) }

assert_eq!(Ok(2).and_then(sq).and_then(sq), Ok(16));
assert_eq!(Ok(2).and_then(sq).and_then(err), Err(4));
assert_eq!(Ok(2).and_then(err).and_then(sq), Err(2));
assert_eq!(Err(3).and_then(sq).and_then(sq), Err(3));

fn or<F>(self, res: Result<T, F>) -> Result<T, F>

Returns res if the result is Err, otherwise returns the Ok value of self.

Examples

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
let y: Result<u32, &str> = Err("late error");
assert_eq!(x.or(y), Ok(2));

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("early error");
let y: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
assert_eq!(x.or(y), Ok(2));

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("not a 2");
let y: Result<u32, &str> = Err("late error");
assert_eq!(x.or(y), Err("late error"));

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
let y: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(100);
assert_eq!(x.or(y), Ok(2));

fn or_else<F, O>(self, op: O) -> Result<T, F> where O: FnOnce(E) -> Result<T, F>

Calls op if the result is Err, otherwise returns the Ok value of self.

This function can be used for control flow based on result values.

Examples

fn sq(x: u32) -> Result<u32, u32> { Ok(x * x) }
fn err(x: u32) -> Result<u32, u32> { Err(x) }

assert_eq!(Ok(2).or_else(sq).or_else(sq), Ok(2));
assert_eq!(Ok(2).or_else(err).or_else(sq), Ok(2));
assert_eq!(Err(3).or_else(sq).or_else(err), Ok(9));
assert_eq!(Err(3).or_else(err).or_else(err), Err(3));

fn unwrap_or(self, optb: T) -> T

Unwraps a result, yielding the content of an Ok. Else it returns optb.

Examples

let optb = 2;
let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(9);
assert_eq!(x.unwrap_or(optb), 9);

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("error");
assert_eq!(x.unwrap_or(optb), optb);

fn unwrap_or_else<F>(self, op: F) -> T where F: FnOnce(E) -> T

Unwraps a result, yielding the content of an Ok. If the value is an Err then it calls op with its value.

Examples

fn count(x: &str) -> usize { x.len() }

assert_eq!(Ok(2).unwrap_or_else(count), 2);
assert_eq!(Err("foo").unwrap_or_else(count), 3);

impl<T, E> Result<T, E> where E: Debug

fn unwrap(self) -> T

Unwraps a result, yielding the content of an Ok.

Panics

Panics if the value is an Err, with a panic message provided by the Err's value.

Examples

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
assert_eq!(x.unwrap(), 2);

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("emergency failure");
x.unwrap(); // panics with `emergency failure`

fn expect(self, msg: &str) -> T

Unwraps a result, yielding the content of an Ok.

Panics

Panics if the value is an Err, with a panic message including the passed message, and the content of the Err.

Examples

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("emergency failure");
x.expect("Testing expect"); // panics with `Testing expect: emergency failure`

impl<T, E> Result<T, E> where T: Debug

fn unwrap_err(self) -> E

Unwraps a result, yielding the content of an Err.

Panics

Panics if the value is an Ok, with a custom panic message provided by the Ok's value.

Examples

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Ok(2);
x.unwrap_err(); // panics with `2`

let x: Result<u32, &str> = Err("emergency failure");
assert_eq!(x.unwrap_err(), "emergency failure");
