Enum actix_web::Either

pub enum Either<A, B> {
    A(A),
    B(B),
}

Combines two different responder types into a single type

use actix_web::{AsyncResponder, Either, Error, HttpRequest, HttpResponse};
use futures::future::result;

type RegisterResult =
    Either<HttpResponse, Box<Future<Item = HttpResponse, Error = Error>>>;

fn index(req: HttpRequest) -> RegisterResult {
    if is_a_variant() {
        // <- choose variant A
        Either::A(HttpResponse::BadRequest().body("Bad data"))
    } else {
        Either::B(
            // <- variant B
            result(Ok(HttpResponse::Ok()
                .content_type("text/html")
                .body("Hello!")))
                .responder(),
        )
    }
}
