Resultant 1.0.1

Resultant

A robust and flexible C# library for implementing the Result pattern, designed to enhance error handling in your .NET applications.

About Resultant

Resultant is a C# library targeting netstandard2.0, offering an implementation of the Result pattern. This pattern is an alternative to exception-based error handling, providing a way to return success or error information from methods in a clear and consistent manner. It's especially useful in complex applications where you need to handle multiple error conditions gracefully.

Key Features

• Generic and Non-Generic Result Types: Handle operations that return values and those that don't.
• Fluent API: Chain operations with Map, Bind, MapAsync, and BindAsync methods.
• Error Handling: Support for error messages, codes, and multiple error aggregation.
• Async Support: Seamlessly integrate with asynchronous methods.
• Paged Results: Special handling for paginated data.
• Implicit Conversion Operators: For improved usability.

Getting Started

Installation

Resultant is available as a NuGet package. You can install it using the NuGet Package Manager or the .NET CLI:

dotnet add package Resultant

Basic Usage

Here's a quick example of how to use the Resultant library:

public Result<string> ProcessData(string input)
{
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(input))
        return Result.Fail("Input cannot be empty");

    // Process the data...
    return Result.Ok("Processed data");
}
