The class
class Monad m => MonadError e (m :: Type -> Type) | m -> e where #
The strategy of combining computations that can throw exceptions by bypassing bound functions from the point an exception is thrown to the point that it is handled.
Is parameterized over the type of error information and
the monad type constructor.
It is common to use
as the monad type constructor
for an error monad in which error descriptions take the form of strings.
In that case and many other common cases the resulting monad is already defined
as an instance of the Either
StringMonadError
class.
You can also define your own error type and/or use a monad type constructor
other than
or Either
String
.
In these cases you will have to explicitly define instances of the Either
IOError
MonadError
class.
(If you are using the deprecated Control.Monad.Error or
Control.Monad.Trans.Error, you may also have to define an Error
instance.)
throwError :: e -> m a #
Is used within a monadic computation to begin exception processing.
catchError :: m a -> (e -> m a) -> m a #
A handler function to handle previous errors and return to normal execution. A common idiom is:
do { action1; action2; action3 } `catchError` handler
where the action
functions can call throwError
.
Note that handler
and the do-block must have the same return type.
Instances
liftResult :: MonadError String m => Result a -> m a Source #
Lift Result
into MonadError
.
The ResultT monad transformer
data ResultT m a where Source #
A monad transformer that is similar to ExceptT
except a MonadFail
instance.
MonadFail
=ResultT
.throwE
Instances
mapResultT :: (Functor m, Functor n) => (m (Result a) -> n (Result b)) -> ResultT m a -> ResultT n b Source #
Map the unwrapped computation using the given function.
The Result monad
result :: (String -> b) -> (a -> b) -> Result a -> b Source #
Case analysis for the Result
type.
Examples
>>>
let s = Success 0
>>>
let e = Error "critical"
>>>
result ("Bad: " ++) (("OK: " ++) . show) s
"OK: 0">>>
result ("Bad: " ++) (("OK: " ++) . show) e
"Bad: critical"
fromSuccess :: a -> Result a -> a Source #
Convert
to Result
aa
with a default value.
