Ruby hati-command

The hati-command gem is designed to simplify command execution, emphasizing effective handling of success and failure outcomes. It can be employed as a service object or interactor, fostering clean and organized code for managing complex operations.

  • hati-command provides a simple and flexible way to handle command execution and result handling.

  • hati-command offers a Success and Failure result classes to handle command execution results.

  • hati-command It provides a Result object to access the result value, success, and failure, along with options to attach custom messages and metadata for better context.

Features

  • Command Execution: Execute commands seamlessly, allowing for optional parameters.
  • Success Handling: Provides success responses with transformed messages and additional metadata.
  • Failure Handling: Handles failures gracefully, returning informative messages and context.

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

bundle add hati-command

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

gem install hati-command

Basic Usage

To use the hati-command gem, you can create a command class that includes the HatiCommand::Cmd module. Here’s a simple example:

require 'hati_command'

class GreetingCommand
  include HatiCommand::Cmd

  def call(greeting = nil)
    message = build_greeting(greeting)
    return message if message.failure?

    process_message(message)
  end

  def build_greeting(greeting)
    greeting ? Success(greeting) : Failure("No greeting provided")
  end

  def process_message(message)
    message.success? ? Success(message.upcase) : Failure("No message provided")
  end
end

Handling Success

result = GreetingCommand.call("Hello, World!")

puts result.success? # Outputs: true
puts result.failure? # Outputs: false

puts result.success  # Outputs: "HELLO, WORLD!"
puts result.failure  # Outputs: nil

puts result.value    # Outputs: "HELLO, WORLD!"
puts result.result   # Outputs: HatiCommand::Success

Handling Failure

result = GreetingCommand.call

puts result.failure? # Outputs: true
puts result.success? # Outputs: false

puts result.failure  # Outputs: "No message provided"
puts result.success  # Outputs: nil

puts result.value    # Outputs: "No message provided"
puts result.result   # Outputs: HatiCommand::Failure

Transactional Behavior: Fail Fast with Failure!

class GreetingCommand
  include HatiCommand::Cmd

  # NOTE: Will catch unexpected and wrap to HatiCommand::Failure object
  #       Requires true || ErrorObject
  command do
    unexpected_err true
  end

  def call(params)
    message = process_message(params[:message])
    msg = normalize_message(message, params[:recipients])

    Success(msg)
  end

  # NOTE: No message passed - auto break an execution
  def process_message(message)
    message ? message.upcase : Failure!("No message provided")
  end

  def normalize_message(message, recipients)
    Failure!("No recipients provided") if recipients.empty?

    recipients.map { |recipient| "#{recipient}: #{message}" }
  end
end
# NOTE: No message passed - command exited
#       Returns Result (Failure) object
result = GreetingCommand.call

puts result.failure? # Outputs: true
puts result.failure  # Outputs: "No message provided"
puts result.value    # Outputs: "No message provided"
result = GreetingCommand.call(params.merge(message: "Hello!"))

puts result.failure? # Outputs: true
puts result.failure  # Outputs: "No recipients provided"
puts result.value    # Outputs: "No recipients provided"
result = GreetingCommand.call(params.merge(recipients: ["Alice", "Bob"]))

puts result.failure? # Outputs: false
puts result.success  # Outputs: true
puts result.value    # Outputs: ["Alice: Hello!", "Bob: Hello!"]

Advanced Usage

Configurations and customization allow users to tailor the command to meet their specific needs and preferences

Result Customization

Here are some advanced examples of result customization. Available options are

  • meta - Hash to attach custom metadata
  • err - Message or Error access via error method
  • trace - By design Failure! and unexpected_err error's stack top entry

.meta

class GreetingCommand
  include HatiCommand::Cmd
  # ...
  def process_message(message)
    Success(message.upcase, meta: { lang: :eng, length: message.length })
  end
  # ...
end
result = GreetingCommand.("Hello, Advanced World!")
puts result.value         # Outputs: "HELLO, ADVANCED WORLD!"

puts result.meta[:lang]   # Outputs: :eng
puts result.meta[:length] # Outputs: 22
puts result.meta          # Outputs: {:lang=>:eng, :length=>22}

.error

set via err access via error method. Availiable as param for #Success as well (ex. partial success)
class GreetingCommand
  include HatiCommand::Cmd
  # ...
  def process_message(message)
    Failure(message, err: "No message provided")
  end
end
result = GreetingCommand.call
puts result.value   # Outputs: nil
puts result.error   # Outputs: "No message provided"
puts result.trace   # Outputs:

.trace

Available as accessor on Result object
1| class DoomedCommand
2|   include HatiCommand::Cmd
3|
4|   def call
5|     Failure!
6|   end
7|   # ...
8| end
result = GreetingCommand.call
puts result.failure? # Outputs: true
puts result.trace    # Outputs: path/to/cmds/doomed_command.rb:5:in `call'

Command Configurations

Provides options for default failure message or errors. Available configs are:

  • failure - Message or Error
  • fail_fast - Message or Error
  • unexpected_err - Bool(true) or Message or Error

failure

1 | class DoomedCommand

13|     Failure(error, err: "Insufficient funds")
14|   end
15|   # ...
16| end
result = DoomedCommand.call(fail_fast: true)
# NOTE: not configured fail fast uses default error
puts result.failure # Outputs: nil
puts result.error   # Outputs: "Default Error"
puts result.trace   # Outputs: path/to/cmds/doomed_command.rb:5:in `call'


result = DoomedCommand.call
puts result.failure # Outputs: "Foo"
puts result.error   # Outputs: "Default Error"

puts result.failure # Outputs: nil
puts result.error   # Outputs: "Default Fail Fast Error"
puts result.trace   # Outputs: path/to/cmds/doomed_command.rb:9:in `call'

unexpected_err

result = GreetingCommand.call
puts result.failure # Outputs: nil
puts result.error   # Outputs: TypeError: no implicit conversion of Integer into String
puts result.trace   # Outputs: path/to/cmds/greeting_command.rb:9:in `call'

unexpected_err (wrapped)

2 |   include HatiCommand::Cmd
3 |
4 |   class GreetingError < StandardError; end
5 |

9 |
10|   def call
11|     1 + "2"
12|   end
13|   # ...
14| end
result = GreetingCommand.call
# NOTE: Original error becomes value (failure)
puts result.failure # Outputs: TypeError: no implicit conversion of Integer into String

puts result.error   # Outputs: GreetingError
puts result.trace   # Outputs: path/to/cmds/greeting_command.rb:12:in `call'
