TeymurDevv.ResultPattern 1.0.0

TeymurDevv.ResultPattern

A lightweight and elegant Result Pattern implementation for handling success and failure scenarios in C#.

🚀 Introduction

TeymurDevv.ResultPattern is a simple yet powerful library that provides a structured way to handle operations that can either succeed or fail, reducing reliance on exceptions and improving code clarity.

✨ Features

• Encapsulates success and failure outcomes in a single result type.
• Eliminates excessive if-else checks.
• Improves readability and maintainability of business logic.
• Avoids using exceptions for expected errors.
• Works seamlessly with ASP.NET Core, CQRS, and MediatR.

📦 Installation

Install via NuGet Package Manager:

Install-Package TeymurDevv.ResultPattern

Or via .NET CLI:

dotnet add package TeymurDevv.ResultPattern

🛠 Usage

1️⃣ Basic Success & Failure Handling

using TeymurDevv.ResultPattern;

var successResult = Result<string>.Success("Operation successful");
Console.WriteLine(successResult.Value); // Output: Operation successful

var failureResult = Result<string>.Failure("Something went wrong");
Console.WriteLine(failureResult.Error); // Output: Something went wrong

2️⃣ Using Result Without a Return Value

var operationResult = Result.Success();
if (operationResult.IsSuccess)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Operation succeeded");
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Error: {operationResult.Error}");
}

3️⃣ Using Result in a Service Layer

public class UserService
{
    public Result<User> GetUserById(int id)
    {
        var user = _userRepository.GetById(id);
        if (user == null)
        {
            return Result<User>.Failure("User not found");
        }
        return Result<User>.Success(user);
    }
}

4️⃣ Handling Result in an API Controller (ASP.NET Core)

[ApiController]
[Route("api/users")]
public class UserController : ControllerBase
{
    private readonly UserService _userService;

    public UserController(UserService userService)
    {
        _userService = userService;
    }

    [HttpGet("{id}")]
    public IActionResult GetUser(int id)
    {
        var result = _userService.GetUserById(id);
        
        if (result.IsFailure)
            return NotFound(new { message = result.Error });

        return Ok(result.Value);
    }
}

🔥 Why Use TeymurDevv.ResultPattern?

✅ Explicit error handling – No more guessing where exceptions might occur.
✅ Improves performance – Avoids costly exceptions for expected failures.
✅ Increases maintainability – Cleaner and more structured error handling.
✅ Works with CQRS & MediatR – Perfect for modern backend architectures.
