Stream Result
🚊 Railway-oriented library to model and handle success/failure easily for Kotlin, Android, and Retrofit.
## What's Railway-Oriented Programming?
Railway Oriented Programming is a functional approach to handling success and errors in normalized ways, always allowing you to predict the result. This library helps you to implement Railway-Oriented models and functions in Kotlin and Android (especially with [Retrofit](https://github.com/square/retrofit)). Read [Railway Oriented Programming](https://fsharpforfunandprofit.com/rop/) if you want to learn more about ROP.
## Use Cases
You'll find the use cases in the repositories below:
- [Stream Chat SDK for Android](https://github.com/getStream/stream-chat-android): 💬 Android Chat SDK ➜ Stream Chat API. UI component libraries for chat apps. Kotlin & Jetpack Compose messaging SDK for Android chat.
- [Stream Video SDK for Android](https://github.com/getStream/stream-video-android): 📲 Android Video SDK. Stream's versatile Core + Compose UI component libraries that allow you to build video calling, audio room, and, live streaming apps based on Webrtc running on Stream's global edge network.
## Stream Result
This library provides a normalized result model, `Result`, representing the success or error of any business work.
[](https://search.maven.org/search?q=g:%22io.getstream%22%20AND%20a:%22stream-result%22)
Add the dependency below to your **module**'s `build.gradle` file:
```gradle
dependencies {
implementation("io.getstream:stream-result:$version")
}
```
## Result
This is a basic model to represent a normalized result from business work. This looks similar to [Kotlin's Result](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-result/), but Stream Result was designed to include more information about success and error and support more convenient functionalities to handle results. Result is basically consist of two detailed types below:
- **Result.Success**: This represents your business's successful result, including a `value` property, a generic type of Result.
- **Result.Failure**: This represents the failed result of your business result and includes a `value` property, the `Error` type.
You can simply create each instance of `Result` like the example below:
```kotlin
val result0: Result = Result.Success(value = "result")
val result1: Result = Result.Failure(
value = Error.GenericError(message = "failure")
)
val result = result0 then { result1 }
result.onSuccess {
..
}.onError {
..
}
```
## Error
`Result.Failure` has `Error` as a value property, which contains error details of your business work. Basically, `Error` consists of three different types of errors below:
- **Error.GenericError**: Represents a normal type of error and only contains an error message.
- **Error.ThrowableError**: Represents an exceptional type of error and contains a message and cause information.
- **Error.NetworkError**: Represents a network error and contains status code, message, and cause information.
You can create each instance like the example below:
```kotlin
val error: Error = Error.GenericError(message = "error")
try {
..
} catch (e: Exception) {
val error: Error = Error.ThrowableError(
message = e.localizedMessage ?: e.stackTraceToString(),
cause = e
)
}
val error: Error = Error.NetworkError(
message = "error",
serverErrorCode = code,
statusCode = statusCode
)
```
## Result Extensions
**Stream Result** library useful extensions below to effectively achieve Railway Oriented Programming in Kotlin:
### Result.then
Composition the `Result` with a given `Result` from a lambda function.
```kotlin
val result0: Result = Result.Success(value = "result0")
val result1: Result = Result.Success(value = 123)
val result = result0 then { result1 }
result.onSuccess { intValue -> .. }
```
### Result.map, Result.mapSuspend
Returns a transformed `Result` of applying the given function if the `Result` contains a successful data payload.
```kotlin
val result: Result = Result.Success(value = "result")
val mappedResult = result.map { 123 }
mappedResult.onSuccess { intValue -> }
```
### Result.flatMap, Result.flatMapSuspend
Returns a transformed `Result` from results of the function if the `Result` contains a successful data payload. Returns an original `Result` if the `Result` contains an error payload.
```kotlin
val result: Result = Result.Success(value = "result")
val mappedResult = result.flatMap { Result.Success(value = 123) }
mappedResult.onSuccess { intValue -> }
```
## Stream Result Call Retrofit
**Stream Result** library provides retrofit call integration functionalities to help you to construct a `Result` model easily from the network requests on Android with the same approaches of Railway Oriented Programming.
[](https://search.maven.org/search?q=g:%22io.getstream%22%20AND%20a:%22stream-result%22)
Add the dependency below into your **module**'s `build.gradle` file:
```gradle
dependencies {
implementation("io.getstream:stream-result-call-retrofit:$version")
}
```
### RetrofitCallAdapterFactory and RetrofitCall
You can return `RetrofitCall` class as a return type on your Retrofit services by adding `RetrofitCallAdapterFactory` on your `Retrofit.Builder` like the example below:
```kotlin
val retrofit: Retrofit = Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(..)
.addCallAdapterFactory(RetrofitCallAdapterFactory.create())
.build()
val posterService: PosterService = retrofit.create()
interface PosterService {
@GET("DisneyPosters2.json")
fun fetchPosterList(): RetrofitCall>
}
```
`RetrofitCall` class allows you to execute network requests easily like the example below:
```kotlin
interface PosterService {
@GET("DisneyPosters2.json")
fun fetchPosterList(): RetrofitCall>
}
val posterService: PosterService = retrofit.create()
// Execute a network request asynchronously with a given callback.
posterService.fetchPosterList().enqueue { posters ->
..
}
// Execute a network request in a coroutine scope.
// If you use coroutines, we'd recommend you to use this way.
viewModelScope.launch {
val result = posterService.fetchPosterList().await()
result.onSuccess {
..
}.onError {
..
}
}
```
### RetrofitCall Extensions
`RetrofitCall` provides useful extensions for sequential works following Railway Oriented Programming approaches.
#### RetrofitCall.doOnStart
Run the given `function` before running a network request.
```kotlin
val result = posterService.fetchPosterList()
.doOnStart(viewModelScope) {
// do something..
}.await()
```
#### RetrofitCall.doOnResult
Run the given `function` before running a network request.
```kotlin
val result = posterService.fetchPosterList()
.doOnStart(viewModelScope) {
// do something before running the call..
}
.doOnResult(viewModelScope) {
// do something after running the call..
}.await()
```
#### RetrofitCall.map
Maps a `Call` type to a transformed `Call`.
```kotlin
val result = posterService.fetchPosterList()
.map { it.first() }
.await()
```
So you can chain all the extensions sequentially like the example below:
```kotlin
val result = posterService.fetchPosterList()
// retry if the network request fails.
.retry(viewModelScope, retryPolicy)
// do something before running the network request.
.doOnStart(viewModelScope) {
// do something..
}
// do something after running the network request.
.doOnResult(viewModelScope) {
// do something..
}
// map the type of call.
.map { it.first() }
.await()
result.onSuccess {
// do something..
}.onError {
// do something..
}
```
#### RetrofitCall.retry
Retry a network request following your `RetryPolicy`.
```kotlin
private val retryPolicy = object : RetryPolicy {
override fun shouldRetry(attempt: Int, error: Error): Boolean = attempt <= 3
override fun retryTimeout(attempt: Int, error: Error): Int = 3000
}
val result = posterService.fetchPosterList()
// retry if the network request fails.
.retry(viewModelScope, retryPolicy)
.await()
```
### Custom Error Parser
You can customize the creating of `Error` from an error response according to your backend service by implementing your `ErrorParser` class. You can provide your custom `ErrorParser` to `RetrofitCallAdapterFactory`. If not, it will use a default `ErrorParser`, which uses [Kotlin Serialization](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/serialization.html) to decode json formats.
```kotlin
internal class MyErrorParser : ErrorParser {
@Suppress("UNCHECKED_CAST")
override fun fromJson(raw: String): T {
// use moshi or something that you can serialize from json response.
}
override fun toError(okHttpResponse: Response): Error {
// build Error with a given okHttpResponse.
}
override fun toError(errorResponseBody: ResponseBody): Error {
// build Error with a given errorResponseBody.
}
}
val retrofit: Retrofit = Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(..)
.addConverterFactory(MoshiConverterFactory.create())
.addCallAdapterFactory(RetrofitCallAdapterFactory.create(
errorParser = MyErrorParser()
))
.build()
```
