scalaz-stream: toStream

I was writing a scalaz-stream app the other day and could not figure out what .toStream really did. I looked at the unit test (the examples and unit tests are a great way to learn the library) and figured it out.

When you create a Process0, a process that only has outputs, you need to eventually convert it to a Process[F[_], O]. Process0 means only outputs with zero inputs. Process1 means one input and one output. Here's the line that helped me:

 val source = emitAll(Seq(1,2,3)).toSource

Once I saw that it made sense. emitAll() does not have an environment F[_] defined for it. It needs one in order to be able to run. So whenever you create a Process0 or Process1, you'll need to add an environment. If you are like me, I usually use the Task environment. Using toSource converts a Process0 to the default F[_] environment of task to create a Process[Task, Int] instead of a just a Process0[Int]. That's it!

quick note on scala.js, react hooks, monix, auth

quick note on scala.js, react hooks, monix, auth Reactjs hooks finally came out of preview in a recent version of React. scalajs-reaction has had support for hooks since they were in preview. React hooks seem like the hot new thing but for me the question is, do hooks help improve your code by improving maintainability, time to market, TCO, etc.? Let’s take a look using authentication as an example and employ monix , a reactive observable framework that also builds on cats . We will assume we are building a SPA. Does it improve your code and make your application & development experience better? Auth Auth processing can be complex. Many react auth examples you find in blogs like to show how to use “react-routing” and “auth” as a switch that determines which routes are protected or unprotected. Protected routes show application specific data. Unprotected routes show login content . Based on storing a “User” object in the browser session/local storage, th...

zio environment and modules pattern: zio, scala.js, react, query management

zio environment and modules pattern: zio, scala.js, react, query management This blog covers a zio-based fetch design for scala.js, react web applications. It heavily uses the zio “environment” feature to help motivate a point of view on the modules pattern in effect systems. At the end, I summarize some thoughts on ergonomics and complexity. This blog assumes a basic knowledge of zio and react. scala.js is just like scala so you mostly already know scala.js. This blog is a follow-on to previous blogs: https://appddeevvmeanderings.blogspot.com/2019/10/scalajs-react-fetcher-hook_48.html and https://appddeevvmeanderings.blogspot.com/2019/11/scalajs-and-react-suspense.html . I have been keeping an eye on and culling ideas from typscript/javascript fetching libraries that address query management concerns. The formulation below incorporates some of those concerns but does not try to comprehensively duplicate well established javascript libraries. I only care about ...

attributes with react and typescript.md

If you use typescript with react you may wonder what the right signature is for your “properties” interface. Obviously, your component will have few to many specific properties that reflect your domain. However, you may wish to also provide for the ability to add other attributes, such as those valid for a div property. In other words, you want to extend your props interface with that of the properties from a div element. How do you do that? There are really two issues: How do you extend your props interfaces How do you filter the props once you receive them to just those that apply. Extend Your Prop Interface or Use Sum Types It’s not uncommon to see interface Props { className ? : string yourProp ? : number } with the idea of using it in class MyComponent extends React.Component<Props, any> somewhere. If your component will have an outer div, you may also pass in a react element so that its configurable. But let’s say your outer element is a div and you wan...
