type Outcome<'r> = Outcome<Response<'r>, Status, Data>;

Type alias for the Outcome of a Handler.

Methods

impl<'r> Outcome<'r>

pub fn from<T: Responder<'r>>(req: &Request, responder: T) -> Outcome<'r>

Return the Outcome of response to req from responder.

Example

use rocket::{Request, Data};
use rocket::handler::Outcome;

fn str_responder(req: &Request, _: Data) -> Outcome<'static> {
    Outcome::from(req, "Hello, world!")
}

pub fn failure(code: Status) -> Outcome<'static>

Return an Outcome of Failure with the status code code. This is equivalent to Outcome::Failure(code).

This method exists to be used during manual routing where rocket::handler::Outcome is imported instead of rocket::Outcome.

Example

use rocket::{Request, Data};
use rocket::handler::Outcome;
use rocket::http::Status;

fn bad_req_route(_: &Request, _: Data) -> Outcome<'static> {
    Outcome::failure(Status::BadRequest)
}

pub fn forward(data: Data) -> Outcome<'static>

Return an Outcome of Forward with the data data. This is equivalent to Outcome::Forward(data).

This method exists to be used during manual routing where rocket::handler::Outcome is imported instead of rocket::Outcome.

Example

use rocket::{Request, Data};
use rocket::handler::Outcome;

fn always_forward(_: &Request, data: Data) -> Outcome<'static> {
    Outcome::forward(data)
}
