uutils ~ 'core' uutils code library (cross-platform)
Documentation
// TODO fix broken links
#![allow(rustdoc::broken_intra_doc_links)]
//! All utils return exit with an exit code. Usually, the following scheme is used:
//! * `0`: succeeded
//! * `1`: minor problems
//! * `2`: major problems
//!
//! This module provides types to reconcile these exit codes with idiomatic Rust error
//! handling. This has a couple advantages over manually using [`std::process::exit`]:
//! 1. It enables the use of `?`, `map_err`, `unwrap_or`, etc. in `uumain`.
//! 1. It encourages the use of [`UResult`]/[`Result`] in functions in the utils.
//! 1. The error messages are largely standardized across utils.
//! 1. Standardized error messages can be created from external result types
//!    (i.e. [`std::io::Result`] & `clap::ClapResult`).
//! 1. [`set_exit_code`] takes away the burden of manually tracking exit codes for non-fatal errors.
//!
//! # Usage
//! The signature of a typical util should be:
//! ```ignore
//! fn uumain(args: impl uucore::Args) -> UResult<()> {
//!     ...
//! }
//! ```
//! [`UResult`] is a simple wrapper around [`Result`] with a custom error trait: [`UError`]. The
//! most important difference with types implementing [`std::error::Error`] is that [`UError`]s
//! can specify the exit code of the program when they are returned from `uumain`:
//! * When `Ok` is returned, the code set with [`set_exit_code`] is used as exit code. If
//!   [`set_exit_code`] was not used, then `0` is used.
//! * When `Err` is returned, the code corresponding with the error is used as exit code and the
//! error message is displayed.
//!
//! Additionally, the errors can be displayed manually with the [`show`] and [`show_if_err`] macros:
//! ```ignore
//! let res = Err(USimpleError::new(1, "Error!!"));
//! show_if_err!(res);
//! // or
//! if let Err(e) = res {
//!    show!(e);
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! **Note**: The [`show`] and [`show_if_err`] macros set the exit code of the program using
//! [`set_exit_code`]. See the documentation on that function for more information.
//!
//! # Guidelines
//! * Use error types from `uucore` where possible.
//! * Add error types to `uucore` if an error appears in multiple utils.
//! * Prefer proper custom error types over [`ExitCode`] and [`USimpleError`].
//! * [`USimpleError`] may be used in small utils with simple error handling.
//! * Using [`ExitCode`] is not recommended but can be useful for converting utils to use
//!   [`UResult`].
