Types
A collection of types that are commonly used types.
Models
Concurrency type
Describes the concurrency to use when executing multiple Effect's.
Signature
type Concurrency = number | "unbounded" | "inherit"Contravariant
Contravariant type
Contravariant helper.
Signature
type Contravariant<A> = (_: A) => voidCovariant helper.
Signature
type Covariant<A> = (_: never) => ADetermines if two types are equal.
Signature
type Equals<X, Y> = <T>() => T extends X ? 1 : 2 extends <T>() => T extends Y ? 1 : 2 ? true : falseExample
import type { Types } from "effect"
type Res1 = Types.Equals<{ a: number }, { a: number }> // truetype Res2 = Types.Equals<{ a: number }, { b: number }> // falseEqualsWith type
Determines if two types are equal, allowing to specify the return types.
Signature
type EqualsWith<A, B, Y, N> = <T>() => T extends A ? 1 : 2 extends <T>() => T extends B ? 1 : 2 ? Y : NDetermines if a record contains any of the given keys.
Signature
type Has<A, Key extends string> = Key extends infer K ? K extends keyof A ? true : never : never extends never ? false : trueExample
import type { Types } from "effect"
type Res1 = Types.Has<{ a: number }, "a" | "b"> // truetype Res2 = Types.Has<{ c: number }, "a" | "b"> // falseInvariant helper.
Signature
type Invariant<A> = (_: A) => AMerges two object where the keys of the left object take precedence in the case of a conflict.
Signature
type MergeLeft<Source, Target> = MergeRight<Target, Source>Example
import type { Types } from "effect"type MergeLeft = Types.MergeLeft<{ a: number, b: number; }, { a: string }> // { a: number; b: number; }MergeRecord type
Signature
type MergeRecord<Source, Target> = MergeLeft<Source, Target>MergeRight type
Merges two object where the keys of the right object take precedence in the case of a conflict.
Signature
type MergeRight<Target, Source> = Simplify<Source & { [Key in keyof Target]: Target[Key] }>Example
import type { Types } from "effect"type MergeRight = Types.MergeRight<{ a: number, b: number; }, { a: string }> // { a: string; b: number; }Avoid inference on a specific parameter
Signature
type NoInfer<A> = [A][A extends any ? 0 : never]Other
Signature
type Ctor<T = {}> = (...args: Array<any>) => TMatchRecord type
Signature
type MatchRecord<S, onTrue, onFalse> = {} extends S ? onTrue : onFalseNoExcessProperties type
Signature
type NoExcessProperties<T, U> = T & { [K in Exclude<keyof U, keyof T>]: never }NotFunction type
Signature
type NotFunction<T> = T extends Function ? never : TVoidIfEmpty type
Conditional type that returns void if S is an empty object type,
otherwise returns S.
Signature
type VoidIfEmpty<S> = keyof S extends never ? void : STuples
Represents a tuple with a fixed number of elements of type T.
This type constructs a tuple that has exactly N elements of type T.
Signature
type TupleOf<N extends number, T> = N extends N ? number extends N ? Array<T> : _TupleOf<T, N, []> : neverExample
import { TupleOf } from "effect/Types"
// A tuple with exactly 3 numbersconst example1: TupleOf<3, number> = [1, 2, 3]; // valid// @ts-expect-errorconst example2: TupleOf<3, number> = [1, 2]; // invalid// @ts-expect-errorconst example3: TupleOf<3, number> = [1, 2, 3, 4]; // invalidTupleOfAtLeast type
Represents a tuple with at least N elements of type T.
This type constructs a tuple that has a fixed number of elements N of type T at the start,
followed by any number (including zero) of additional elements of the same type T.
Signature
type TupleOfAtLeast<N extends number, T> = [...TupleOf<N, T>, ...Array<T>]Example
import { TupleOfAtLeast } from "effect/Types"
// A tuple with at least 3 numbersconst example1: TupleOfAtLeast<3, number> = [1, 2, 3]; // validconst example2: TupleOfAtLeast<3, number> = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; // valid// @ts-expect-errorconst example3: TupleOfAtLeast<3, number> = [1, 2]; // invalidTypes
DeepMutable type
Like Types.Mutable, but works recursively.
Signature
type DeepMutable<T> = T extends ReadonlyMap<infer K, infer V> ? Map<DeepMutable<K>, DeepMutable<V>> : T extends ReadonlySet<infer V> ? Set<DeepMutable<V>> : T extends string | number | boolean | bigint | symbol | Function ? T : { [K in keyof T]: DeepMutable<T[K]> }Example
import type { Types } from "effect"
type DeepMutableStruct = Types.DeepMutable<{ readonly a: string; readonly b: readonly string[]}>// { a: string; b: string[] }ExcludeTag type
Excludes the tagged object from the type.
Signature
type ExcludeTag<E, K extends Tags<E>> = Exclude<E, { _tag: K;}>Example
import type { Types } from "effect"
type Res = Types.ExcludeTag<string | { _tag: "a" } | { _tag: "b" }, "a"> // string | { _tag: "b" }ExtractTag type
Extracts the type of the given tag.
Signature
type ExtractTag<E, K extends Tags<E>> = Extract<E, { _tag: K;}>Example
import type { Types } from "effect"
type Res = Types.ExtractTag<{ _tag: "a", a: number } | { _tag: "b", b: number }, "b"> // { _tag: "b", b: number }Make all properties in T mutable. Supports arrays, tuples, and records as well.
Signature
type Mutable<T> = { [P in keyof T]: T[P] }Example
import type { Types } from "effect"
type MutableStruct = Types.Mutable<{ readonly a: string; readonly b: number }> // { a: string; b: number; }
type MutableArray = Types.Mutable<ReadonlyArray<string>> // string[]
type MutableTuple = Types.Mutable<readonly [string, number]> // [string, number]
type MutableRecord = Types.Mutable<{ readonly [_: string]: number }> // { [x: string]: number; }Simplifies the type signature of a type.
Signature
type Simplify<A> = { [K in keyof A]: A[K] } extends infer B ? B : neverExample
import type { Types } from "effect"
type Res = Types.Simplify<{ a: number } & { b: number }> // { a: number; b: number; }Returns the tags in a type.
Signature
type Tags<E> = E extends { _tag: string;} ? E["_tag"] : neverExample
import type { Types } from "effect"
type Res = Types.Tags<string | { _tag: "a" } | { _tag: "b" } > // "a" | "b"UnionToIntersection type
A utility type that transforms a union type T into an intersection type.
Signature
type UnionToIntersection<T> = T extends any ? (x: T) => any : never extends (x: infer R) => any ? R : never
