Errgo

Go-style errors-as-values in C#. Instead of throwing exceptions, you return a tuple of (result, Error) and check the error explicitly at the call-site.

Install

dotnet add package Errgo

Quick start

using Errgo;

var (user, err) = GetUserById("1234");
if (err) return (null, err);
else return (user, Error.None);

Error is a struct, so it never allocates. Error.None signals success. default(Error) is still an error. If it's not Error.None, it's a failure.

Features

  • Value type - no heap allocations, equality compared by value
  • Sentinel errors - Error.Sentinel(...) for creating known errors to match against
  • Composition - Error.Join(...) combines multiple errors into a chain of inner errors
  • Error stack - Print the whole error stack of an error and it's accumulated inner errors, source file and file number included
  • Pattern matching - Is(Error) and As(Error, out Error) to branch on specific errors
  • Companion analyzer - Errgo.Analyzer enforces the errors-as-values style in your IDE

Requirements

  • .NET Standard 2.1
