Usage

require "try"

i = Try(Int32).try { 1 }              # => Success(Int32)
i.get                                 # => 1
i.err                                 # raises "not failed"
i.value                               # => 1
i.map(&.+ 1).value                    # => 2

i = Try(Int32).try { raise "error" }  # => Failure(Int32)
i.get                                 # raises "error"
i.err                                 # => Exception("error")
i.value                               # => Exception("error")
i.map(&.+ 1).value                    # => Exception("error")

API

def success? : Bool
def failure? : Bool
def value : T
def get : T
def get? : T?
def failed : Failure(T)
def err : Exception
def err? : Exception?
def map(&block : T -> U) : Failure(T) | Success(T) forall U
def flat_map(&block : T -> Failure(T) | Success(T)) : Failure(T) | Success(T) forall U
def recover(&block : Exception -> T) : Failure(T) | Success(T)
def or(&block : Exception -> U) : Failure(T|U) | Success(T|U) forall U

Try.match (experimental)

Syntax sugar for case statements that specialize in getting Success and Failure values like extractors in Scala.

try = Try(Int32).try { 1 }
Try.match(try) {
  v : Success = puts "got #{v}"
  e : Failure = raise e
}
