Enum ProposeError 

pub enum ProposeError {
    Invalid(String),
    Exists(String),
    Write(String),
}

Why propose wrote nothing: the input cannot make a record, a record of that identity already exists, or the file could not be written. Each carries the sentence a caller is shown, and the three are kept apart so that a transport can answer invalid input, a refusal and its own failure differently.

use majordomus_cli::intent::{propose, ProposeError};
let nowhere = std::path::Path::new("/nonexistent");
// judged before anything is touched: an empty statement never reaches the disk
let e = propose(nowhere, "  ", None, None, "2026-10-12").unwrap_err();
assert!(matches!(e, ProposeError::Invalid(_)));
assert_eq!(e.to_string(), "an intent needs a statement: what must become true");

Variants

Invalid(String)

The input cannot make a record: an empty statement, or an id that is not a slug.

Exists(String)

A record with this identity exists; a proposal never overwrites one.

Write(String)

The file could not be written.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for ProposeError

fn clone(&self) -> ProposeError

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for ProposeError

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for ProposeError

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

impl Eq for ProposeError

impl PartialEq for ProposeError

fn eq(&self, other: &ProposeError) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
