CanCatch

CanCatch

CanCatch lets you catch NonFatal Throwable in the F[A] and turned it into F[Either[Throwable, A]]. It takes a function from Throwable to your own error type, yet it can handle only NonFatal ones as already mentioned.

CanCatch looks like this.

trait CanCatch[F[_]] {
def catchNonFatal[A, B](fb: => F[B])(f: PartialFunction[Throwable, A]): F[Either[A, B]]

def catchNonFatalEither[A, AA >: A, B](fab: => F[Either[A, B]])(
f: PartialFunction[Throwable, AA]
): F[Either[AA, B]]
}

In practice, you don't need to use it directly because Fx is already CanCatch as well.

CanCatch.catchNonFatal

val fa: F[A] = ...
Fx[F].catchNonFatal(fa) {
case SomeException(message) =>
SomeError(message)
} // F[Either[SomeError, A]

CanCatch[F].catchNonFatal[A, B] lets you catch NonFatal Throwable from F[B] and returns F[Either[A, B]].

How to Use

import cats.effect._

import effectie.core._
import effectie.instances.ce2.fx._

final case class MyException(cause: Throwable) extends RuntimeException

val fa = CanCatch[IO].catchNonFatal(
IO(throw new RuntimeException("Something's wrong!"))
) {
case ex =>
MyException(ex)
}
// fa: IO[Either[MyException, Nothing]] = Bind(
// source = Bind(
// source = Delay(
// ...

fa.unsafeRunSync()
// res1: Either[MyException, Nothing] = Left(
// value = MyException(cause = java.lang.RuntimeException: Something's wrong!)
// )
