Enum TransientContext

pub enum TransientContext {
    Stateful(Context),
    Stateless(Context),
    Diverging(ExitCode),
}

A context labeled as either stateful or stateless, or diverging when neither is applicable, in which case the program must provide an exit code and exit gracefully.

This data structure is only used in the decision making in between steps, therefore it is transient.

A stateful context may affect all following steps by appearing in the ctx_states and arg-resume. On the other hand, a stateless context will still be collected by the playbook for any reason it may need it, then discarded before the next step begins.

Variants

Stateful(Context)

Stateless(Context)

Diverging(ExitCode)
