HashMap

Stores key/value entries in an immutable hash map.

A HashMap<Key, Value> hashes keys and resolves matches with Effect's structural equality rules. Lookup, insertion, removal, and transformation operations return new maps, while temporary mutation helpers support efficient batch updates. This module also includes constructors, iteration, conversion, mapping, filtering, and reducing helpers.

Combining

union

Added in v2.0.0 Source

Combines two HashMaps into one.

Details

Entries from that are inserted into self; when both maps contain an equal key, the value from that replaces the value from self.

Signature

declare const union: {
<K1, V1>(that: HashMap<K1, V1>): <K0, V0>(self: HashMap<K0, V0>) => HashMap<K1 | K0, V1 | V0>;

Models

HashMap interface

Added in v2.0.0 Source

A HashMap is an immutable key-value data structure that provides efficient lookup, insertion, and deletion operations. It uses a Hash Array Mapped Trie (HAMT) internally for structural sharing and optimal performance.

Signature

interface HashMap<out Key, out Value> extends Iterable<[Key, Value]>, Equal, Pipeable, Inspectable {
readonly "~effect/collections/HashMap": "~effect/collections/HashMap";
}

Example

(Using basic HashMap operations)

import { HashMap, Option } from "effect"
// Create a HashMap
const map = HashMap.make(["a", 1], ["b", 2], ["c", 3])
// Access values
HashMap.get(map, "a") // => Option.some(1)
HashMap.get(map, "d") // => Option.none()
// Check if key exists
HashMap.has(map, "b") // => true
// Add/update values (returns new HashMap)
HashMap.set(map, "d", 4) // => HashMap.make(["a", 1], ["b", 2], ["c", 3], ["d", 4])

Mutations

Signature

declare const beginMutation: <K, V>(self: HashMap<K, V>) => HashMap<K, V>

Example

(Beginning batch mutation)

import { HashMap } from "effect"
const map = HashMap.make(["a", 1])

const mutable = HashMap.beginMutation(map)
// Multiple operations are now more efficient
HashMap.set(mutable, "b", 2)
HashMap.set(mutable, "c", 3)
HashMap.remove(mutable, "a")
// End mutation to get final immutable result
HashMap.endMutation(mutable) // => HashMap.make(["b", 2], ["c", 3])

endMutation

import { HashMap } from "effect"
// Start with an existing map
const original = HashMap.make(["x", 10], ["y", 20])
// Begin mutation for batch operations
const mutable = HashMap.beginMutation(original)
// Perform multiple efficient operations
HashMap.set(mutable, "z", 30)
HashMap.remove(mutable, "x")
HashMap.set(mutable, "w", 40)
// End mutation to get final immutable result
HashMap.endMutation(mutable) // => HashMap.make(["y", 20], ["z", 30], ["w", 40])

mutate

Added in v2.0.0 Source

Runs a batch of updates against a transient mutable copy of the HashMap and returns the finalized immutable result.

Details

<K, V>(f: (self: HashMap<K, V>) => void): (self: HashMap<K, V>) => HashMap<K, V>;
<K, V>(self: HashMap<K, V>, f: (self: HashMap<K, V>) => void): HashMap<K, V>;
}

Example

(Applying batched mutations)

import { HashMap } from "effect"
const map1 = HashMap.make(["a", 1])
const map2 = HashMap.mutate(map1, (mutable) => {
HashMap.set(mutable, "b", 2)

import { HashMap } from "effect"
const map1 = HashMap.make(["a", 1], ["b", 2], ["c", 3], ["d", 4])
const map2 = HashMap.removeMany(map1, ["b", "d"])
map2 // => HashMap.make(["a", 1], ["c", 3])

set

Added in v2.0.0 Source

Sets the specified key to the specified value using the internal hashing function.

Signature

declare const set: {
<K, V>(key: K, value: V): (self: HashMap<K, V>) => HashMap<K, V>;
<K, V>(self: HashMap<K, V>, key: K, value: V): HashMap<K, V>;
}

Example

(Setting a value)

import { HashMap } from "effect"
const map1 = HashMap.make(["a", 1])
HashMap.set(map1, "b", 2) // => HashMap.make(["a", 1], ["b", 2])
// Original map is unchanged
map1 // => HashMap.make(["a", 1])

setMany

Added in v4.0.0 Source

Sets multiple key-value pairs in the HashMap.

Signature

declare const setMany: {
<K, V>(entries: Iterable<readonly [K, V]>): (self: HashMap<K, V>) => HashMap<K, V>;
<K, V>(self: HashMap<K, V>, entries: Iterable<readonly [K, V]>): HashMap<K, V>;
}

Example

(Setting multiple entries)

import { HashMap, Option } from "effect"
const map1 = HashMap.make(["a", 1], ["b", 2])
const newEntries = [["c", 3], ["d", 4], ["a", 10]] as const // "a" will be overwritten
const map2 = HashMap.setMany(map1, newEntries)
map2 // => HashMap.make(["a", 10], ["b", 2], ["c", 3], ["d", 4])
HashMap.get(map2, "a") // => Option.some(10)

Traversing

forEach

Added in v2.0.0 Source

Applies the specified function to the entries of the HashMap.

Signature

declare const forEach: {
<V, K>(f: (value: V, key: K) => void): (self: HashMap<K, V>) => void;
<V, K>(self: HashMap<K, V>, f: (value: V, key: K) => void): void;
}

Example

(Iterating with side effects)

import { HashMap } from "effect"
const map = HashMap.make(["a", 1], ["b", 2])
const collected: Array<[string, number]> = []
HashMap.forEach(map, (value, key) => {
collected.push([key, value])
})
collected.sort() // => [["a", 1], ["b", 2]]

Unsafe

getUnsafe

Added in v4.0.0 Source

Looks up the value for the specified key in the HashMap unsafely using the internal hashing function.

When to use

Use when reading from a HashMap by a key known to exist, and throwing is an acceptable programming error for a missing key.

Gotchas

This function throws an error if the key is not found. Use HashMap.get for safe access that returns Option.

Signature

declare const getUnsafe: {
<K1, K>(key: K1): <V>(self: HashMap<K, V>) => V;
<K1, K, V>(self: HashMap<K, V>, key: K1): V;
}

Example

(Unsafely looking up values)

import { HashMap, Option } from "effect"
const config = HashMap.make(
["api_url", "https://api.example.com"],
["timeout", "5000"],
["retries", "3"]
)
// Safe: use when you're certain the key exists
HashMap.getUnsafe(config, "api_url") // => "https://api.example.com"
// Preferred: use get() for uncertain keys
HashMap.get(config, "db_url") // => Option.none()
// This would throw: HashMap.getUnsafe(config, "db_url")
// Error: "HashMap.getUnsafe: key not found"
