concat

Concatenates two Fx streams: runs the first to completion, then runs the second. Emits all values from the first stream in order, then all values from the second stream in order.

Completion: The concatenated stream completes when the second stream completes (the first must complete before the second starts).

Failures: A source Cause is delivered to the Sink. Because Fx.run is infallible, delivery alone does not suppress the continuation: the right source is run after the left run returns.

Follow each lane from left to right. Events stacked vertically share a tick; the green cursor marks the current time across every lane.

  • A value
    The text inside the pill is the emitted value.
  • Work starts
    The raised chevron starts an inner run (^ in the source).
  • The run returns
    The vertical bar ends this lane’s run.
  • A cause is delivered
    The exclamation mark belongs to this lane.
  • Work is interrupted
    The cross marks cancellation of this run.
  • Current time
    The line and diamond move together across all lanes.
  • Happening now
    A highlighted event is at the current tick.
  • Still ahead
    Muted, dashed values have not happened yet.
  • Time continues
    The lane’s arrow is not a return marker. An empty stretch can be quiet work that is still running.

Illustrated ticks start at 0. At 1×, one illustrated tick takes one second; captions specify real durations when timing matters. A cause or interruption belongs to its lane, and other work may continue. Scroll horizontally to inspect the rest of a long timeline.

Only one source is active at a time. Interruption stops the active source and prevents later acquisition. Failure is Sink delivery rather than a failing Fx.run Effect, so it does not by itself prevent the right source from being acquired.

Import

import { concat } from "@typed/fx/Fx";

Signatures

export declare const concat: {
    <A2, E2, R2>(that: Fx<A2, E2, R2>): <A, E, R>(self: Fx<A, E, R>) => Fx<A | A2, E | E2, R | R2>;
    <A, E, R, A2, E2, R2>(self: Fx<A, E, R>, that: Fx<A2, E2, R2>): Fx<A | A2, E | E2, R | R2>;
};

Why

concat makes subscription order explicit: the right source is not acquired until the left run returns. It preserves every value and each source’s internal order. A failure callback can be followed by continuation values when the Sink handles the Cause without interrupting the run.

Ownership and lifetime

Only one source is active at a time. Interruption stops the active source and prevents later acquisition. Failure is Sink delivery rather than a failing Fx.run Effect, so it does not by itself prevent the right source from being acquired.

Examples

import { Effect, Ref } from "effect"
import { Fx, Sink } from "@typed/fx"

const program = Effect.gen(function* () {
  const deliveries = yield* Ref.make<Array<string>>([])
  const sink = Sink.make(
    () => Ref.update(deliveries, (xs) => [...xs, "failure"]),
    (value: string) => Ref.update(deliveries, (xs) => [...xs, value])
  )
  yield* Fx.concat(Fx.fail("left failed"), Fx.succeed("right still runs")).run(sink)
  return yield* Ref.get(deliveries) // ["failure", "right still runs"]
})
