How to return both success and error case in the same Axum handler?
Full error message
Ok so I have an axum handler which looks somewhat like this:
#[debug_handler]
async fn handler(
State(server_state): State<Arc<Server>>,
Query(query_params): Query<Query>,
) -> impl IntoResponse {
match server_state.store.handle(query_params).await {
Ok(res) => (StatusCode::OK, Json(res)),
Err(err) => (StatusCode::INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR, Json(err))
}
}
This fails with the following error:
|
42 | / match server_state.store.handle(query_params).await {
43 | | Ok(res) => (StatusCode::OK, Json(res)),
| | -------------------------- this is found to be of type `(StatusCode, axum::Json<Vec<Data>>)`
44 | | Err(err) => (StatusCode::INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR, Json(err))
| | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected struct `Vec`, found enum `sqlx::Error`
45 | | }
| |_____- `match` arms have incompatible types
|
= note: expected tuple `(StatusCode, axum::Json<Vec<Data>>)`
found tuple `(StatusCode, axum::Json<sqlx::Error>)`
I understand why the error is happening. The two arms of the match expression don't have the same return type.
But the question is how to fix this? I am not sure it makes sense to have to convert somehow sqlx::Error into the ok case.
The other approach I can think of is to have a response struct...something like
struct Response {
body: Option<Data>,
error: Option<sqlx::Error>
}
and error will be None in case of success. body will be None in case of error.
The question is, I am not sure if this is the generally acceptable way of handling this with Axum?Solutionsource: stackoverflow \u2197
a little bit a late answer, but i think the easiest way to do it in this case is to apply into_response() to both match-arm results: match server_state.store.handle(query_params).await { Ok(res) => (StatusCode::OK, Json(res)).into_response(), Err(err) => (StatusCode::INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR, Json(err)).into_response() } Best regards Thomas
