NAME

       Jifty::Result - Outcome of running a Jifty::Action

DESCRIPTION

       "Jifty::Result" encapsulates the outcome of running a Jifty::Action.  Results are also stored on the
       framework's Jifty::Response object.

   new
       Construct a new action result.  This is done automatically when the action is created, and can be
       accessed via the "result" in Jifty::Action.

   failure [BOOL]
       Gets or sets if the action succeeded or failed.

   success [BOOL]
       Gets or sets if the action succeeded or failed -- this is an alternate interface from "failure" but has
       the same effect.

   action_class [MESSAGE]
       Returns the class for the action that this result came from.

   message [MESSAGE]
       Gets or sets the action's response message.  This is an informational textual description of the outcome
       of the action.

   error [ERROR]
       Gets or sets the action's error response.  This is an informational textual description of what went
       wrong with the action, overall.  This also automatically sets the result to be a "failure".

   field_error FIELD [ERROR] [OPTIONS]
       Gets or sets the error string for a specific field on the action.  This also automatically sets the
       result to be a failure.  "OPTIONS" is an optional set of key-value pairs; the only currently supported
       option is "force", which sets the "ajax_force_validate" for this field.

   field_errors
       Returns a hash which maps argument name to error.

   field_warning FIELD [WARNING] [OPTIONS]
       Gets or sets the warning string for a specific field on the action. "OPTIONS" is an optional set of key-
       value pairs; the only currently supported option is "force", which sets the "ajax_force_validate" for
       this field.

   field_warnings
       Returns a hash which maps argument name to warning.

   ajax_force_validate FIELD [VALUE]
       Gets or sets the flag which determines if warnings and errors are set using ajax validation, even if the
       field is empty.  By default, validation warnings and errors are not shown for empty fields, as yelling to
       users about mandatory fields they've not gotten to yet is poor form.  You can use this method to force
       ajax errors to show even on empty fields.

   field_canonicalization_note FIELD [NOTE]
       Gets or sets a canonicalization note for a specific field on the action.

   field_canonicalization_notes
       Returns a hash which maps argument name to canonicalization notes.

   content [KEY [, VALUE]]
       Gets or sets the content "KEY".  This is used when actions need to return values.  If not "KEY" is
       passed, it returns an anonymous hash of all of the "KEY" and "VALUE" pairs.

   as_hash
       This returns the results as a hash to be given directly to the end user (usually via REST or
       webservices). The difference between "$result->as_hash" and %$result is that the latter will expand
       everything as deeply as possible. The former won't inflate "refers_to" columns, among other things.
