models

Differ (interface)

A Differ<Value, Patch> knows how to compare an old value and new value of type Value to produce a patch of type Patch that describes the differences between those values. A Differ also knows how to apply a patch to an old value to produce a new value that represents the old value updated with the changes described by the patch.

A Differ can be used to construct a FiberRef supporting compositional updates using the FiberRef.makePatch constructor.

The Differ companion object contains constructors for Differ values for common data types such as Chunk, HashMap, and ` HashSet``. In addition, Differvalues can be transformed using the transformoperator and combined using theorElseEitherandzipoperators. This allows creatingDiffer values for arbitrarily complex data types compositionally.

Signature

export interface Differ<Value, Patch> {
  readonly [TypeId]: {
    readonly _V: (_: Value) => Value
    readonly _P: (_: Patch) => Patch
  }
  readonly empty: Patch
  readonly diff: (oldValue: Value, newValue: Value) => Patch
  readonly combine: (first: Patch, second: Patch) => Patch
  readonly patch: (patch: Patch, oldValue: Value) => Value
}

Added in v1.0.0

patch

combine

Combines two patches to produce a new patch that describes the updates of the first patch and then the updates of the second patch. The combine operation should be associative. In addition, if the combine operation is commutative then joining multiple fibers concurrently will result in deterministic FiberRef values.

Signature

export declare const combine: {
  <Patch>(first: Patch, second: Patch): <Value>(self: Differ<Value, Patch>) => Patch
  <Value, Patch>(self: Differ<Value, Patch>, first: Patch, second: Patch): Patch
}

Added in v1.0.0

diff

Signature

export declare const diff: {
  <Value>(oldValue: Value, newValue: Value): <Patch>(self: Differ<Value, Patch>) => Patch
  <Value, Patch>(self: Differ<Value, Patch>, oldValue: Value, newValue: Value): Patch
}

Added in v1.0.0

empty

An empty patch that describes no changes.

Signature

export declare const empty: <Value, Patch>(self: Differ<Value, Patch>) => Patch

Added in v1.0.0

patch

Applies a patch to an old value to produce a new value that is equal to the old value with the updates described by the patch.

Signature

export declare const patch: {
  <Patch, Value>(patch: Patch, oldValue: Value): (self: Differ<Value, Patch>) => Value
  <Patch, Value>(self: Differ<Value, Patch>, patch: Patch, oldValue: Value): Value
}

orElseEither

Combines this differ and the specified differ to produce a differ that knows how to diff the sum of their values.

Signature

export declare const orElseEither: {
  <Value2, Patch2>(that: Differ<Value2, Patch2>): <Value, Patch>(
    self: Differ<Value, Patch>
  ) => Differ<Either<Value, Value2>, Differ.Or.Patch<Value, Value2, Patch, Patch2>>

transform

Transforms the type of values that this differ knows how to differ using the specified functions that map the new and old value types to each other.

Signature

export declare const transform: {
  <Value, Value2>(options: { readonly toNew: (value: Value) => Value2; readonly toOld: (value: Value2) => Value }): <
    Patch

  ): Differ<Value2, Patch>
}

Added in v1.0.0

update

Constructs a differ that just diffs two values by returning a function that sets the value to the new value. This differ does not support combining multiple updates to the value compositionally and should only be used when there is no compositional way to update them.

Signature

export declare const update: <A>() => Differ<A, (a: A) => A>

Added in v1.0.0

updateWith

A variant of update that allows specifying the function that will be used to combine old values with new values.
