Provides a way to write effectful code using generator functions, simplifying
control flow and error handling.
When to Use
Effect.gen allows you to write code that looks and behaves like synchronous
code, but it can handle asynchronous tasks, errors, and complex control flow
(like loops and conditions). It helps make asynchronous code more readable
and easier to manage.
The generator functions work similarly to async/await but with more
explicit control over the execution of effects. You can yield* values from
effects and return the final result at the end.

The console module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.
The module exports two specific components:
A Console class with methods such as console.log(), console.error() and console.warn() that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
A global console instance configured to write to process.stdout and
process.stderr. The global console can be used without importing the node:console module.
Warning: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the note on process I/O for
more information.
Example using the global console:
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(newError('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
// Error: Whoops, something bad happened
// at [eval]:5:15
// at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
// at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
// at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
// at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
// at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
// at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3
constname='Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
Example using the Console class:
constout=getStreamSomehow();
consterr=getStreamSomehow();
constmyConsole=new console.Console(out, err);
myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(newError('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err
Prints to stdout with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the
first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution
values similar to printf(3)
(the arguments are all passed to util.format()).
Helps you run a main effect with built-in error handling, logging, and signal management.
Details
This function launches an Effect as the main entry point, setting exit codes
based on success or failure, handling interrupts (e.g., Ctrl+C), and optionally
logging errors. By default, it logs errors and uses a "pretty" format, but both
behaviors can be turned off. You can also provide custom teardown logic to
finalize resources or produce different exit codes.
Options
An optional object that can include:
disableErrorReporting: Turn off automatic error logging.
disablePrettyLogger: Avoid adding the pretty logger.
teardown: Provide custom finalization logic.
When to Use
Use this function to run an Effect as your application’s main program, especially
when you need structured error handling, log management, interrupt support,
or advanced teardown capabilities.
constprovide: <NodeContext.NodeContext, never, never>(layer:Layer<NodeContext.NodeContext, never, never>) => <A, E, R>(self:Effect.Effect<A, E, R>) =>Effect.Effect<...> (+9overloads)
Provides necessary dependencies to an effect, removing its environmental
requirements.
Details
This function allows you to supply the required environment for an effect.
The environment can be provided in the form of one or more Layers, a
Context, a Runtime, or a ManagedRuntime. Once the environment is
provided, the effect can run without requiring external dependencies.
You can compose layers to create a modular and reusable way of setting up the
environment for effects. For example, layers can be used to configure
databases, logging services, or any other required dependencies.
@see ― provideService for providing a service to an effect.
