## Maybe Types

The `Nan::MaybeLocal` and `Nan::Maybe` types are monads that encapsulate `v8::Local` handles that _may be empty_.

### Nan::MaybeLocal

A `Nan::MaybeLocal<T>` is a wrapper around [`v8::Local<T>`](https://v8docs.nodesource.com/node-8.11/de/deb/classv8_1_1_local.html) that enforces a check that determines whether the `v8::Local<T>` is empty before it can be used.

If an API method returns a `Nan::MaybeLocal`, the API method can potentially fail either because an exception is thrown, or because an exception is pending, e.g. because a previous API call threw an exception that hasn't been caught yet, or because a `v8::TerminateExecution` exception was thrown. In that case, an empty `Nan::MaybeLocal` is returned.

Definition:

```c++
template<typename T> class Nan::MaybeLocal {
 public:
  MaybeLocal();

  template<typename S> MaybeLocal(v8::Local<S> that);

  bool IsEmpty() const;

  template<typename S> bool ToLocal(v8::Local<S> *out);

  // Will crash if the MaybeLocal<> is empty.
  v8::Local<T> ToLocalChecked();

  template<typename S> v8::Local<S> FromMaybe(v8::Local<S> default_value) const;
};
```

See the documentation for [`v8::MaybeLocal`](https://v8docs.nodesource.com/node-8.11/d8/d7d/classv8_1_1_maybe_local.html) for further details.

<a name="api_nan_maybe"></a>
### Nan::Maybe

A simple `Nan::Maybe` type, representing an object which may or may not have a value, see https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base/docs/Data-Maybe.html.

If an API method returns a `Nan::Maybe<>`, the API method can potentially fail either because an exception is thrown, or because an exception is pending, e.g. because a previous API call threw an exception that hasn't been caught yet, or because a `v8::TerminateExecution` exception was thrown. In that case, a "Nothing" value is returned.

Definition:

```c++
template<typename T> class Nan::Maybe {
 public:
  bool IsNothing() const;
  bool IsJust() const;

  // Will crash if the Maybe<> is nothing.
  T FromJust();

  T FromMaybe(const T& default_value);

  bool operator==(const Maybe &other);

  bool operator!=(const Maybe &other);
};
```

See the documentation for [`v8::Maybe`](https://v8docs.nodesource.com/node-8.11/d9/d4b/classv8_1_1_maybe.html) for further details.

### Nan::MakeMaybe()

Wraps a `v8::Local<>` in a `Nan::MaybeLocal<>`. When called with a `Nan::MaybeLocal<>` it just returns its argument. This is useful in generic template code that builds on NAN.

Synopsis:

```c++
  MaybeLocal<v8::Number> someNumber = MakeMaybe(New<v8::Number>(3.141592654));
  MaybeLocal<v8::String> someString = MakeMaybe(New<v8::String>("probably"));
```

Signature:

```c++
template <typename T, template <typename> class MaybeMaybe>
Nan::MaybeLocal<T> Nan::MakeMaybe(MaybeMaybe<T> v);
```
