WinRT Safe Storage

• Enough of InvalidOperationException, COMException or just undocumented exceptions?
• Try Catch each storage method makes your code heavier?
• You want to go back to Win32 because it was easier?
• But you had to finish this one UWP project?

Well WinRT Safe Storage is here for that!
It might not be that clean, but at least every WinRT storage call isn't going to crash your app, and error handling is much easier.

Examples

Try

await SafeStorageFolder.TryGetFolderFromPathAsync(UrlBar.Text)
    .OnSuccess(async (folder) =>
        await ShowFolder(folder) )
    .OnError((exception) =>
        WarningMessage.Text = exception.Message );

or

var getFolderOperation = await SafeStorageFolder.TryGetFolderFromPathAsync(UrlBar.Text);

if (getFolderOperation.IsSuccess)
    await ShowFolder(getFolderOperation.Value);
else
    WarningMessage.Text = getFolderOperation.Exception.Message;

Try with return

var getParentOperation = await CurrentFolder.TryGetParentAsync();

if (getParentOperation.Value != null)
    await GoToAsync(getParentOperation.Value);

return getParentOperation.Value != null; // Is successful ?

Single convertion

await Launcher.LaunchFileAsync(safeFile.UnsafeFile);

Multi convertion

var safeFolders = new List<SafeStorageFolder>();

safeFolders.AddRange(StorageConverter.ToSafe(unsafeFolders));
