Fx

Fx

If you use Monix and write tagless final code, and look for a generic way to construct F[A], Fx can help you.

import effectie.core._

trait Something[F[_]] {
def get[A](a: => A): F[A]
}

object Something {
def apply[F[_]: Something]: Something[F] =
implicitly[Something[F]]

implicit def something[F[_]: Fx]: Something[F] =
new SomethingF[F]

final class SomethingF[F[_]: Fx]
extends Something[F] {

def get[A](a: => A): F[A] =
Fx[F].effectOf(a)
}
}

import monix.eval._
import monix.execution.Scheduler.Implicits.global

import effectie.instances.monix3.fx._

val get1 = Something[Task].get(1)
// get1: Task[Int] = Eval(thunk = <function0>)

get1.runSyncUnsafe()
// res1: Int = 1

If you feel it's too cumbersome to repeat Fx[F].effectOf(), consider using effectie.syntax.

Syntax

If you're sick of repeating Fx[F].effectOf() and looking for more convenient ways?, use Effectful instead.

import effectie.syntax.all._
import effectie.core._

trait Something[F[_]] {
def get[A](a: => A): F[A]
}

object Something {
def apply[F[_]: Something]: Something[F] =
implicitly[Something[F]]

implicit def something[F[_]: Fx]: Something[F] =
new SomethingF[F]

final class SomethingF[F[_]: Fx]
extends Something[F] {

def get[A](a: => A): F[A] =
effectOf(a)
// No more Fx[F].effectOf(a)
}
}

import monix.eval._
import monix.execution.Scheduler.Implicits.global

import effectie.instances.monix3.fx._

val get1 = Something[Task].get(1)
// get1: Task[Int] = Eval(thunk = <function0>)

get1.runSyncUnsafe()
// res3: Int = 1
