Module Base__.Or_error

Type for tracking errors in an Error.t. This is a specialization of the Result type, where the Error constructor carries an Error.t.

A common idiom is to wrap a function that is not implemented on all platforms, e.g.:

val do_something_linux_specific : (unit -> unit) Or_error.t

type 'a t = ('aBase.Error.tBase.Result.t

Serialization and comparison of an Error force the error's lazy message. *

val sexp_of_t : ('a ‑> Base__.Sexplib.Sexp.t) ‑> 'a t ‑> Base__.Sexplib.Sexp.t
val compare : ('a ‑> 'a ‑> int) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t ‑> int

Applicative functions don't have quite the same semantics as Applicative.of_Monad(Or_error) would give -- apply (Error e1) (Error e2) returns the combination of e1 and e2, whereas it would only return e1 if it were defined using bind.

include Base.Container.S1 with type t := a t
type 'a t
val mem : 'a t ‑> 'a ‑> equal:('a ‑> 'a ‑> bool) ‑> bool

Checks whether the provided element is there, using equal.

val length : 'a t ‑> int
val is_empty : 'a t ‑> bool
val iter : 'a t ‑> f:('a ‑> unit) ‑> unit
val fold : 'a t ‑> init:'accum ‑> f:('accum ‑> 'a ‑> 'accum) ‑> 'accum

fold t ~init ~f returns f (... f (f (f init e1) e2) e3 ...) en, where e1..en are the elements of t

val fold_result : 'a t ‑> init:'accum ‑> f:('accum ‑> 'a ‑> ('accum'eBase.Result.t) ‑> ('accum'eBase.Result.t

fold_result t ~init ~f is a short-circuiting version of fold that runs in the Result monad. If f returns an Error _, that value is returned without any additional invocations of f.

val fold_until : 'a t ‑> init:'accum ‑> f:('accum ‑> 'a ‑> ('accum'stopBase.Container_intf.Continue_or_stop.t) ‑> ('accum'stopBase.Container_intf.Finished_or_stopped_early.t

fold_until t ~init ~f is a short-circuiting version of fold. If f returns Stop _ the computation ceases and results in that value. If f returns Continue _, the fold will proceed.

val exists : 'a t ‑> f:('a ‑> bool) ‑> bool

Returns true if and only if there exists an element for which the provided function evaluates to true. This is a short-circuiting operation.

val for_all : 'a t ‑> f:('a ‑> bool) ‑> bool

Returns true if and only if the provided function evaluates to true for all elements. This is a short-circuiting operation.

val count : 'a t ‑> f:('a ‑> bool) ‑> int

Returns the number of elements for which the provided function evaluates to true.

val sum : (module Base.Commutative_group.S with type t = 'sum) ‑> 'a t ‑> f:('a ‑> 'sum) ‑> 'sum

Returns the sum of f i for i in the container

val find : 'a t ‑> f:('a ‑> bool) ‑> 'a option

Returns as an option the first element for which f evaluates to true.

val find_map : 'a t ‑> f:('a ‑> 'b option) ‑> 'b option

Returns the first evaluation of f that returns Some, and returns None if there is no such element.

val to_list : 'a t ‑> 'a list
val to_array : 'a t ‑> 'a array
val min_elt : 'a t ‑> cmp:('a ‑> 'a ‑> int) ‑> 'a option

Returns a minimum (resp maximum) element from the collection using the provided cmp function, or None if the collection is empty. In case of a tie, the first element encountered while traversing the collection is returned. The implementation uses fold so it has the same complexity as fold.

val max_elt : 'a t ‑> cmp:('a ‑> 'a ‑> int) ‑> 'a option

include Base__.Monad_intf.S_without_syntax with type t := a t
type 'a t

A monad is an abstraction of the concept of sequencing of computations. A value of type 'a monad represents a computation that returns a value of type 'a.

include Base__.Monad_intf.Infix with type t := a t
type 'a t
val (>>=) : 'a t ‑> ('a ‑> 'b t) ‑> 'b t

t >>= f returns a computation that sequences the computations represented by two monad elements. The resulting computation first does t to yield a value v, and then runs the computation returned by f v.

val (>>|) : 'a t ‑> ('a ‑> 'b) ‑> 'b t

t >>| f is t >>= (fun a -> return (f a)).

module Monad_infix : Base__.Monad_intf.Infix with type t := a t
val bind : 'a t ‑> f:('a ‑> 'b t) ‑> 'b t

bind t ~f = t >>= f

val return : 'a ‑> 'a t

return v returns the (trivial) computation that returns v.

val map : 'a t ‑> f:('a ‑> 'b) ‑> 'b t

map t ~f is t >>| f.

val join : 'a t t ‑> 'a t

join t is t >>= (fun t' -> t').

val ignore_m : 'a t ‑> unit t

ignore_m t is map t ~f:(fun _ -> ()). ignore_m used to be called ignore, but we decided that was a bad name, because it shadowed the widely used Pervasives.ignore. Some monads still do let ignore = ignore_m for historical reasons.

val all : 'a t list ‑> 'a list t
val all_ignore : unit t list ‑> unit t
include Base__.Monad_intf.Syntax with type t := a t
type 'a t
module Let_syntax : sig ... end
val ignore : _ t ‑> unit t
val try_with : ?backtrace:bool ‑> (unit ‑> 'a) ‑> 'a t

try_with f catches exceptions thrown by f and returns them in the Result.t as an Error.t. try_with_join is like try_with, except that f can throw exceptions or return an Error directly, without ending up with a nested error; it is equivalent to Result.join (try_with f).

val try_with_join : ?backtrace:bool ‑> (unit ‑> 'a t) ‑> 'a t
val ok_exn : 'a t ‑> 'a

ok_exn t throws an exception if t is an Error, and otherwise returns the contents of the Ok constructor.

val of_exn : ?backtrace:[ `Get | `This of string ] ‑> exn ‑> _ t

of_exn exn is Error (Error.of_exn exn).

val of_exn_result : ('a, exn) Base.Result.t ‑> 'a t

of_exn_result (Ok a) = Ok a, of_exn_result (Error exn) = of_exn exn

val error : ?strict:unit ‑> string ‑> 'a ‑> ('a ‑> Base.Sexp.t) ‑> _ t

error is a wrapper around Error.create:


      error ?strict message a sexp_of_a
      = Error (Error.create ?strict message a sexp_of_a)
    

As with Error.create, sexp_of_a a is lazily computed, when the info is converted to a sexp. So, if a is mutated in the time between the call to create and the sexp conversion, those mutations will be reflected in the sexp. Use ~strict:() to force sexp_of_a a to be computed immediately.

val error_s : Base.Sexp.t ‑> _ t
val error_string : string ‑> _ t

error_string message is Error (Error.of_string message)

val errorf : ('a, unit, string, _ t) Pervasives.format4 ‑> 'a

errorf format arg1 arg2 ... is Error (sprintf format arg1 arg2 ...). Note that it calculates the string eagerly, so when performance matters you may want to use error instead.

val tag : 'a t ‑> tag:string ‑> 'a t

tag t ~tag is Result.map_error t ~f:(Error.tag ~tag). tag_arg is similar.

val tag_arg : 'a t ‑> string ‑> 'b ‑> ('b ‑> Base.Sexp.t) ‑> 'a t
val unimplemented : string ‑> _ t

For marking a given value as unimplemented. Typically combined with conditional compilation, where on some platforms the function is defined normally, and on some platforms it is defined as unimplemented. The supplied string should be the name of the function that is unimplemented.

val combine_errors : 'a t list ‑> 'a list t

combine_errors ts returns Ok if every element in ts is Ok, else it returns Error with all the errors in ts. More precisely:

val combine_errors_unit : unit t list ‑> unit t

combine_errors_unit returns Ok if every element in ts is Ok (), else it returns Error with all the errors in ts, like combine_errors.

val filter_ok_at_least_one : 'a t list ‑> 'a list t

filter_ok_at_least_one ts returns all values in ts that are Ok if there is at least one, otherwise it returns the same error as combine_errors ts.

val find_ok : 'a t list ‑> 'a t

find_ok ts returns the first value in ts that is Ok, otherwise it returns the same error as combine_errors ts.

val find_map_ok : 'a list ‑> f:('a ‑> 'b t) ‑> 'b t

find_map_ok l ~f returns the first value in l for which f returns Ok, otherwise it returns the same error as combine_errors (List.map l ~f).
