Expand description

Provides wrap and add_help methods for Result.

This trait is sealed and cannot be implemented for types outside of narrate.

Useful for wrapping a potential error with additional context and/or help message.

Lazy evaluation

Use wrap_with and add_help_with methods for lazily evaluation of the added context.

Example

use narrate::{ErrorWrap, Result};
use std::fs;
use std::path::PathBuf;

pub struct ImportantThing {
    path: PathBuf,
}

impl ImportantThing {
    pub fn detach(&mut self) -> Result<()> {...}
}

pub fn do_it(mut it: ImportantThing) -> Result<Vec<u8>> {
    it.detach().wrap("Failed to detach the important thing")?;

    let path = &it.path;
    let content = fs::read(path)
        .wrap_with(|| format!("Failed to read instrs from {}", path.display()))
        .add_help("list of instr in README.md")?;

    Ok(content)
}

Required Methods

Wrap an error value with additional context.

Wrap an error value with lazily evaluated context.

Add a help message to an error value.

Add a lazily evaluated help message to an error value.
