Result Monad - monad represents some result in different states - Initial, Pending, Success and Failure.

Explanation

The problem it solving present is a very common one. You are loading a list of things but instead of showing a loading indicator you just see zero items. Same happens with actual data loading - sometimes you just do not think it will fail.

In my mental model, REST requests have one of four states:

* We haven't asked yet.
* We've asked, but we haven't got a response yet.
* We got a response, but it was an error.
* We got a response, and it was the data we wanted.

That is the purpose of this library - allow clean usage over this states.

Installation

> npm install @lonli-lokli/ts-result

Usage

``typescript
import { Result, success } from "@lonli-lokli/ts-result";

class UserNotFoundError extends Error {
name: "UserNotFoundError";
}
type User = { email: string; password: string };

function getUser(id: number): Result {
return success({ email: "test@gmail.com", password: "test" });
}
// Result
const user = getUser(1).map(({ email }) => email);

#### chain

`typescript
function chain(fn: (val: S) => Result): Result;
`

- Returns a new Result by applying fn to the Success value of this Result
- State handling priority:
1. If this Result is Initial, returns Initial
2. If the next Result (returned by fn) is Initial, returns Initial
3. If this Result is Pending or the next Result is Pending, returns Pending
4. If this Result is Failure, returns Failure with current value
5. If the next Result is Failure, returns Failure with next value
6. Otherwise returns the next Result

Example:

`typescript
const v1 = success(2);
const v2 = failure(new Error());
const v3 = initial;

// Result.Success with value "2"
const newVal1 = v1.chain(a => success(a.toString()));

// Result.Failure with value new TypeError()
const newVal2 = v1.chain(a => failure(new TypeError()));

// Result.Failure with value new Error()
const newVal3 = v2.chain(a => success(a.toString()));

// Result.Failure with value new Error()
const newVal4 = v2.chain(a => failure(new TypeError()));

// Result.Initial with no value
const newVal5 = v3.chain(a => failure(new TypeError()));
`

The chain method is particularly useful when you need to sequence operations that might fail or be in different states. It handles all possible state combinations according to the priority rules above.

#### merge

Alias for mergeInOne

`typescript

`

- values: Array> - Array of Result values which will be merged into Result of Array
- Returns Result> which will contain Success> if all of array elements was Success, Failureif all of array elements was Failure, Initial if at least one Initial, otherwise Pending.

Example:

`typescript
const v1 = initial; // Result.Initial
const v2 = pending; // Result.Pending
const v3 = success(2); // Result.Success
const v4 = success("test"); // Result.Success
const v5 = failure(new Error()); // Result.Failure

const r1 = merge([v1, v2]); // Result.Initial
const r2 = merge([v2, v5]); // Result.Pending
const r3 = merge([v3, v4]); // Result.Success

4. Returns Success only if ALL Results are Success

Failure priority (priority: 'failure'):
1. Returns Failure if ANY Result is Failure
2. Returns Initial if ANY Result is Initial
3. Returns Pending if ANY Result is Pending
4. Returns Success only if ALL Results are Success

`typescript
const v1 = success(1);
const v2 = failure('error');
const v3 = pending as Result;

// Default behavior - Pending takes precedence

`

#### Result#unwrapOr

`typescript
function unwrapOr(s: S): S;
`

- Returns the success value if Result is Success, otherwise returns the provided default value.

Example:

`typescript

- onInitial: () => D - Handler for Initial state
- onPending: () => D - Handler for Pending state
- onFailure: (failure: F) => D - Handler for Failure state, receives the failure value
- onSuccess: (success: S) => D - Handler for Success state, receives the success value
- Returns the result of calling the appropriate handler based on the Result state

Example:

`typescript
const onInitial = () => "it's initial"
const onPending = () => "it's pending"
const onFailure = (err) => "it's failure"
const onSuccess = (data) => ${data + 1}

const v1 = initial;
const v2 = pending;
const v3 = failure('error');
const v4 = success(21);

v1.fold(onInitial, onPending, onFailure, onSuccess) // "it's initial"
v2.fold(onInitial, onPending, onFailure, onSuccess) // "it's pending"
v3.fold(onInitial, onPending, onFailure, onSuccess) // "it's failure"
v4.fold(onInitial, onPending, onFailure, onSuccess) // "22"
`

The fold method is particularly useful when you need to handle all possible states of a Result and transform them into a single type. This pattern is common when you need to:
- Display different UI states
- Convert Result states into a common format
- Handle all possible outcomes in a type-safe way

#### Result#filter

`typescript
function filter(predicate: (value: S) => boolean): Result;
`

const isAdult = age.filter(age => age >= 18);
// Result.Failure with value 15

// Chaining validations
const validAge = success(25)
.filter(age => age >= 0) // minimum age
.filter(age => age <= 120); // maximum age
// Result.Success with value 25
`

#### Result#filterMap

`typescript
function filterMap(f: (value: S) => Result): Result;
`

Combines filtering and mapping in one operation. Useful for transformations that might fail.

`typescript

n > 0 ? success(n.toString()) : failure(n);

success(5).filterMap(parseIfPositive)
// Result.Success with value "5"

success(-1).filterMap(parseIfPositive)
// Result.Failure with value -1
`

`typescript
failure('error').filter(x => true) // stays Failure
initial.filter(x => true) // stays Initial
pending.filter(x => true) // stays Pending

failure('error').filterMap(fn) // stays Failure
initial.filterMap(fn) // stays Initial
pending.filterMap(fn) // stays Pending
`

#### Result#tap

`typescript
function tap(f: (value: S) => void): Result;
`

Executes a side effect function if the Result is Success, then returns the original Result unchanged.
Useful for logging, debugging, or other side effects without modifying the Result chain.

`typescript
success(5)
.tap(x => console.log('Value:', x)) // logs "Value: 5"
.map(x => x * 2); // Result.Success(10)

failure('error')
.tap(x => console.log('Value:', x)) // nothing logged
.map(x => x * 2); // Result.Failure('error')
`

#### Result#tapFailure

`typescript
function tapFailure(f: (value: F) => void): Result;
`

Executes a side effect function if the Result is Failure, then returns the original Result unchanged.
Useful for error logging or debugging without modifying the Result chain.

`typescript
success(5)
.tapFailure(e => console.error(e)) // nothing logged
.map(x => x * 2); // Result.Success(10)

failure(new Error('oops'))
.tapFailure(e => console.error(e)) // logs Error: oops
.map(x => x * 2); // Result.Failure(Error: oops)
`


#### Result#recover

`typescript
function recover(value: S): Result;
`

Recovers from a Failure state by providing a default success value.

`typescript
const v1 = failure('error');
const v2 = success(5);

v1.recover(42); // Result.Success with value 42
v2.recover(42); // Result.Success with value 5 (unchanged)
`

#### Result#recoverWith

`typescript
function recoverWith(f: (error: F) => Result): Result;
`

Recovers from a Failure state by applying a function that returns a new Result.
Useful for handling specific error cases differently or transforming errors.

`typescript
const handler = (error: string): Result =>
error === 'known' ? success(42) : failure(new Error('still failed'));

failure('known').recoverWith(handler); // Result.Success(42)
failure('unknown').recoverWith(handler); // Result.Failure(Error: still failed)
success(5).recoverWith(handler); // Result.Success(5)

// Initial and Pending states pass through
initial.recoverWith(handler); // Result.Initial
pending.recoverWith(handler); // Result.Pending
`


#### Result#zip

`typescript
function zip(other: Result): Result;
`

Combines two Results into a Result containing a tuple of their success values.
Returns Failure if either Result is a Failure.

`typescript
const num = success(2);
const str = success('test');

num.zip(str) // Result.Success([2, 'test'])
num.zip(failure('error')) // Result.Failure('error')
`

#### Result#zipWith

`typescript
function zipWith(
other: Result,
f: (a: S, b: S2) => R
): Result;
`

Combines two Results using a function. Returns Failure if either Result is a Failure.

`typescript
const num1 = success(2);
const num2 = success(3);

num1.zipWith(num2, (a, b) => a + b) // Result.Success(5)
num1.zipWith(failure('error'), (a, b) => a + b) // Result.Failure('error')
`

#### Result#bimap

`typescript
function bimap(
failureMap: (f: F) => NF,
successMap: (s: S) => NS
): Result;
`

Maps both the Failure and Success values of a Result simultaneously. Useful for transforming both possible outcomes in one operation.

`typescript
const result = success(42);
