When writing webservices, controllers, or functional handlers,
you might want to adjust the generated response without the need of bulding an IResponse yourself. The Result<T>
allows you to keep strong return types while being able to modify the generated response:
[ResourceMethod(RequestMethod.PUT)]
public Result<Book> AddBook(Book book)
{
var created = ... // do work
return new(created).Status(ResponseStatus.Created);
}
The Result<T> follows the semantics of the IResponseBuilder so you can adjust the generated response as needed.
This does not only work for data structures, but also for special types such as streams.
