This post is similar to previous post. The difference is in this post, we are going to see how to handle both successfuly result and error result by using Pair functor.
So, still we have our funs.js: which is the same as previous post.
const fs = require('fs');
const {Async, constant, composeK, curry} = require('crocks');
const {fromNode} = Async;
const access = fromNode(fs.access);
const readFile = fromNode(fs.readFile);
const accessAsync = curry((mode, path) =>
access(path, mode)
.map(constant(path)));
// readFileAsync :: Option -> a -> Async Error b
const readFileAsync = curry((option, path) =>
readFile(path, option));
const checkRead = accessAsync(fs.constants.F_OK);
const readTextFile = readFileAsync('utf-8');
// loadTextFile :: String -> Async Error String
const loadTextFile = composeK(
readTextFile,
checkRead
);
const fork = a => a.fork(
console.log.bind(null, 'rej'),
console.log.bind(null, 'res')
);
module.exports = {
loadTextFile,
fork
}
For our main.js, we still have the same data input:
const data = [
'text.txt',
'text.big.txt',
'notfound.txt',
];
This time the difference of requirements are:
1. we want to read those files one by one, keep all the successfully results in Pair(result, _);
2. we want to keep the error result in Pair(_, error);
const concatSpecial = (acc, currAsync) =>
acc.chain(
xs => currAsync.bimap(
e => Pair(xs, e),
currVal => xs.concat(currVal))
); // Async (Pair [String] Error) [String]
const flow = mapReduce(
loadTextFile,
concatSpecial,
Async.Resolved([])
); flow(data).fork(
e => console.log(e.snd(), e.fst()), // Pair(success, error)
r => console.log(r), // Just success result
)
We are still using 'mapRedcue' to map over each filename, fetching the content; then we call 'concatSpecial' method, we want to concat all the successful result into one array. Therefore we give an empty array wrapped in Async:
const flow = mapReduce(
loadTextFile,
concatSpecial,
Async.Resolved([])
);
We can do some pointfree refactor for 'concatSpical', it's not necssary, but just as a partice:
const fn = flip(
xs => bimap(
e => Pair(xs, e),
currVal => xs.concat(currVal)
)
); const concatSpecial = (acc, currAsync) =>
acc.chain(
fn(currAsync)
);
For the function 'fn', we should take 'xs' as first param, then 'currAsync' as second param.
But since we also pass in 'currAsync' as first param, then we need to use 'flip':
acc.chain(
fn(currAsync) // pass currAsync as firt, then xs => fn(currAsync)(xs)
);
We can also replace 'Pair' with 'fanout':
const fn = flip(
xs => bimap(
fanout(constant(xs), identity),
currVal => xs.concat(currVal)
)
);

Full code:
const {fork, loadTextFile} = require('./funs.js');
const {Async, bimap, fanout, constant, flip, Pair, identity, mapReduce} = require('crocks');
const data = [
'text.txt',
'text.big.txt',
'notfound.txt',
];
const fn = flip(
xs => bimap(
e => Pair(xs, e),
fanout(constant(xs), identity),
currVal => xs.concat(currVal)
)
);
/*
const concatSpecial = (acc, currAsync) =>
acc.chain(
xs => currAsync.bimap(
e => Pair(xs, e),
currVal => xs.concat(currVal))
);*/
const concatSpecial = (acc, currAsync) =>
acc.chain(
fn(currAsync)
);
// Async (Pair [String] Error) [String]
const flow = mapReduce(
loadTextFile,
concatSpecial,
Async.Resolved([])
);
flow(data).fork(
e => console.log(e.snd(), e.fst()), // Pair(success, error)
r => console.log(r), // Just success result
)
