  • Use Result as much as possible
  • Display errors instead of panicking

TODO (maybe in another PR? this one is already quite big):

  • Find a way to merge Ructe/ErrorPage types, so that we can have routes returning Result<X, ErrorPage> instead of panicking when we have an Error
  • Display more details about the error, to make it easier to debug

(sorry, this isn't going to be fun to review, the diff is huge, but it is always the same changes)

I guess it wasn't fun to write either

can you briefly explain this return signature?
maybe then I'll also understand the above expect()

so, it's ok, or desired, that tests panic, right?

I you understand map, this is basically the same thing, but for Err(_) instead of Ok(_). And passing Error::from is the equivalent to |e| e.from()
This is just mapping an error type to another

Ahah, right… It actually doesn't add a panic, we just panic "outside" of the function instead of "inside" because it wouldn't make much sense to return a Result from broadcast as it is always the main function of its thread.

It says that it can either success with a HeaderValue, or fail with (), so we don't have much details about the error, we just know it failed, but it is probably enough to know that something failed in this function (or maybe not?)

Yes, tests should panic every time something is wrong, so that they fail and that we now something is broken.

It seems good.
Some Result could/should be Result<()> instead.
The ? syntax is really helpful with error handling

I could see a use for knowing how many posts were deleted, and at first at assumed it's what it was. But after re-reading it's telling how many blogs where deleted, so the Ok(_) will only be 1 any, am I right?

If I'm not mistaken, the usize is going to be how many entries were affected, which is one?

I don't know if there are other places where unwrap_or_else(|_| ..) was replaced with unwrap_or(..), if so this comment also apply to them. I think it would be better to or_else(|_| ..)?, I think you already did it at other places

I should have made this message from the start. Maybe add something about making sure no other instance of plume is already running here?

Yes, this result is not used anywhere, it just to have the right return type without having to .map(|_| ()), but maybe it's misleading?

I think it is, even more because we did not document any function (nor what they return)
