Crate swimos_errors 

Error Accumulation Framework

This crate provides Validation, an alternative to the standard library Result type. A function that returns a Result may succeed or fail with a single error. In contrast, Validation is used for processes that can produce an numbers of errors that do no necessarily cause processing to terminate. A function that returns a Validation may succeed (returning a value and no error), return a value and an error (indicating that processing may continue despite the error) or return an unconditional error (indicating that processing cannot continue).

Validations are composed as the process continues, therefore the error type must be composable that errors can be accumulated. Typically, the error type of a Validation will be a collection of error values and the composition operation will take the union of the two collections.

Structs

Errors

A list of errors. This type will only allocate if there is more than 1 error in the list.

Enums

Validation

An alternative to Result where errors are not necessarily fatal. The type E represents a (possibly empty) collection of errors.

Traits

Append

Trait for error collection types that can have additional errors appended.

Recoverable

A trait from errors for which it is potentially possible to recover.

ValidationItExt

An extension trait for Iterator that adds combinators to apply a process returning Validations across all of the elements of the iterator, accumulating the errors.

Functions

validate2

Combine two validated values, accumulating errors.

validate3

Combine three validated values, accumulating errors.
