Genesis.LanguageExt.AspNetCore 7.0.0

Genesis Minimal Endpoints: LanguageExt

Converts LanguageExt monads to ActionResult or minimal API IResult.

Quick Reference

• Any monad that has a proper object will return a success code of 200 OK with a response body
• Any monad that returns Unit will return a success code of 204 No Content
• The Option<T> monad will either be a success of 200 or 204 and the none condition is converted to a 404 Not Found
  • Monad with nested Option<T> such as Fin<Option<T>> could return 200, 204, 404, or 500 as Fin<Option<T>> could be a success with an option of
    • Unit (204)
    • T (200)
    • None (404)
    • Error (500).
• The Try monad will return either a 200, 204, or 500
• The TryOption monad will return either a 200, 204, 404, or 500
• The Eff monad will return a 200, 204, or 500

Proper IEFT problem detail responses will be presented with the appropriate status code based on the exception that is contained within the Fin, Try, TryOption, Eff, and Aff monads.
