Std.Db.Repository.optional

1 declaration

fn

optional: &Std.Db.Driver.Rows -> fn(Std.Db.Driver.Rows, Int) -> Result[T, Std.Db.Repository.RowError] -> Result[Option[T], Std.Db.Repository.RowError]

This is a callable function.

What it does

At most one row as a value.

For a lookup by something unique, where finding nothing is an ordinary

answer and finding several is still a fault.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
  • & borrows a value for this call instead of moving or copying it.
  • Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
  • Option holds Some(value) or None when no value is available.
  • Result makes success and recoverable failure part of the function's type.
