runtime start stop times for zio effects
runtime start stop times for zio effects Sometimes you need to collect the start and stop times for an effect running. For example, if the effect represents a job, you may want to record the job start and stop times in a database for analysis. zio has a .timed combinator that provides you a duration, but if you need to also add the start and stop time, .timed is not quiet right. Fortunately, we can add a few zip’ish combinators and get what we need. I use scala.js js.Date in the code below but substitute in your own date function as appropriate: /** Capture run stats including start and stop datetime. Once you have used the * timing result via `flatMap{ case (start,stop,delta,exit) => ... }`, use * `ZIO.done(exit)` to push the exit value back into an effect if desired. */ def timeRun [ R , E , A ] ( effect : ZIO [ R , E , A ] ) : ZIO [ R with zio . clock .
