Return

The return command in Twidget is a special command used to halt the current command workflow and immediately return a specified result. This command overrides any subsequent processes and outputs the return result regardless of the rest of the workflow logic. This command is particularly useful for error handling, conditional exits, or when a certain result needs to be promptly returned.

Parameters

  • <result>: The value or object you want to return. This result can be a simple data type (e.g., text, number, boolean) or a complex object.

Usage

When the return command is executed, it:

  1. Stops the execution of the current workflow.

  2. Discards any further processing or commands that follow it in the workflow.

  3. Outputs the specified result as the final output of the workflow.

It is imperative to consider how the return command fits into your overall output schema since it will determine the structure and type of the final output.

Considerations

  • Output Schema: Ensure the output schema of your workflow accounts for the type of results that might be returned by the return command.

  • Workflow Design: Carefully design your workflows to use the return command appropriately for intended early exits or error handling mechanisms.

  • Command Placement: Place the return command where specific conditions are met to avoid unintended workflow terminations.

The return command is powerful for controlling the flow and output of workflows in Twidget. By understanding its behavior and correctly implementing it in your workflows, you can create more efficient and effective automation processes.
