sealed abstract class Coeval[+A] extends () => A with Serializable

Coeval represents lazy computations that can execute synchronously.

Word definition and origin:

  • Having the same age or date of origin; a contemporary; synchronous.
  • From the Latin "coævus": com- ‎("equal") in combination with aevum ‎(aevum, "age").
  • The constructor of Coeval is the dual of an expression that evaluates to an A.

There are three evaluation strategies:

  • now or raiseError: for describing strict values, evaluated immediately
  • evalOnce: expressions evaluated a single time
  • eval: expressions evaluated every time the value is needed

The Once and Always are both lazy strategies while Now and Error are eager. Once and Always are distinguished from each other only by memoization: once evaluated Once will save the value to be returned immediately if it is needed again. Always will run its computation every time.

Both Now and Error are represented by the Eager trait, a sub-type of Coeval that can be used as a replacement for Scala's own Try type.

Coeval supports stack-safe lazy computation via the .map and .flatMap methods, which use an internal trampoline to avoid stack overflows. Computations done within .map and .flatMap are always lazy, even when applied to a Coeval.Eager instance (e.g. Coeval.Now, Coeval.Error).

Evaluation Strategies

The "now" and "raiseError" builders are building Coeval instances out of strict values:

val fa = Coeval.now(1)
fa.value() // => 1

val fe = Coeval.raiseError(new RuntimeException("dummy"))
fe.failed // => has RuntimeException

The "always" strategy is equivalent with a plain function:

// For didactic purposes, don't use shared vars at home :-)
var i = 0
val coeval = Coeval.eval { i += 1; i }

coeval.value() // => 1
coeval.value() // => 2
coeval.value() // => 3

The "once" strategy is equivalent with Scala's lazy val (along with thread-safe idempotency guarantees):

var j = 0
val coevalOnce = Coeval.evalOnce { j += 1; j }

coevalOnce.value() // => 1
coevalOnce.value() // => 1
coevalOnce.value() // => 1

Versus Task

The other option of suspending side-effects is Task. As a quick comparison:

  • Coeval's execution is always immediate / synchronous, whereas Task can describe asynchronous computations
  • Coeval is not cancelable, obviously, since execution is immediate and there's nothing to cancel

Versus cats.Eval

The Coeval data type is very similar with cats.Eval. As a quick comparison:

  • cats.Eval is only for controlling laziness, but it doesn't handle side effects, hence cats.Eval is a Comonad
  • Monix's Coeval can handle side effects as well and thus it implements MonadError[Coeval, Throwable] and cats.effect.Sync, providing error-handling utilities

If you just want to delay the evaluation of a pure expression use cats.Eval, but if you need to suspend side effects or you need error handling capabilities, then use Coeval.

    Runs this underlying computation first and then, when successful, the given one.

    Runs this underlying computation first and then, when successful, the given one. Returns the result of the given underlying computation.

    Example:

    val combined = Coeval{println("first"); "first"} >> Coeval{println("second"); "second"}
    // Prints "first" and then "second"
    // Result value will be "second"
  5. def apply(): A

    Evaluates the underlying computation and returns the result.

    Evaluates the underlying computation and returns the result.

    val fa = Coeval { i += 1; i }
    
    fa() // => 1
    fa() // => 2
    fa() // => 3

    UNSAFE — this operation can trigger the execution of side effects, which break referential transparency and is thus not a pure function.

    In FP code use with care, suspended in another Coeval or Task, or at the edge of the FP program.

    Creates a new Coeval that will expose any triggered error from the source.

    val fa: Coeval[Int] =
      Coeval.raiseError[Int](new RuntimeException("dummy"))

      fa.attempt
    
    fe.map {
      case Left(_) => Int.MaxValue
      case Right(v) => v
    }

    By exposing errors by lifting the Coeval's result into an Either value, we can handle those errors in flatMap transformations.

    Also see materialize for working with Scala's Try or redeemWith for an alternative.

  8. final def bracket[B](use: (A) => Coeval[B])(release: (A) => Coeval[Unit]): Coeval[B]

    Returns a task that treats the source as the acquisition of a resource, which is then exploited by the use function and then released.

    Returns a task that treats the source as the acquisition of a resource, which is then exploited by the use function and then released.

    The bracket operation is the equivalent of the try {} finally {} statements from mainstream languages, installing the necessary exception handler to release the resource in the event of an exception being raised during the computation. If an exception is raised, then bracket will re-raise the exception after performing the release.

    Example:

    import java.io._
    
    def readFile(file: File): Coeval[String] = {
      // Opening a file handle for reading text
      val acquire = Coeval.eval(new BufferedReader(
        new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(file), "utf-8")
      ))
    
      acquire.bracket { in =>
        // Usage part
        Coeval.eval {
          // Yes, ugly Java, non-FP loop;
          // side-effects are suspended though
          var line: String = null
          val buff = new StringBuilder()
          do {
            line = in.readLine()
            if (line != null) buff.append(line)
          } while (line != null)
          buff.toString()
        }
      } { in =>
        // The release part
        Coeval.eval(in.close())
      }
    }

    NOTE on error handling: one big difference versus try {} finally {} is that, in case both the release function and the use function throws, the error raised by use gets signaled and the error raised by release gets reported with System.err for Coeval or with Scheduler.reportFailure for Task.

    For example:

    Coeval("resource").bracket { _ =>
      // use
      Coeval.raiseError(new RuntimeException("Foo"))
    } { _ =>
      // release
      Coeval.raiseError(new RuntimeException("Bar"))
    }

    In this case the error signaled downstream is "Foo", while the "Bar" error gets reported. This is consistent with the behavior of Haskell's bracket operation and NOT with try {} finally {} from Scala, Java or JavaScript.

    use

    is a function that evaluates the resource yielded by the source, yielding a result that will get generated by the task returned by this bracket function

    release

    is a function that gets called after use terminates, either normally or in error, receiving as input the resource that needs to be released

  9. final def bracketCase[B](use: (A) => Coeval[B])(release: (A, ExitCase[Throwable]) => Coeval[Unit]): Coeval[B]

    Returns a new task that treats the source task as the acquisition of a resource, which is then exploited by the use function and then released, with the possibility of distinguishing between successful completion and failure, such that an appropriate release of resources can be executed.

    Returns a new task that treats the source task as the acquisition of a resource, which is then exploited by the use function and then released, with the possibility of distinguishing between successful completion and failure, such that an appropriate release of resources can be executed.

    The bracketCase operation is the equivalent of try {} catch {} finally {} statements from mainstream languages when used for the acquisition and release of resources.

    The bracketCase operation installs the necessary exception handler to release the resource in the event of an exception being raised during the computation.

    In comparison with the simpler bracket version, this one allows the caller to differentiate between normal termination and termination in error via an ExitCase parameter.

    use

    is a function that evaluates the resource yielded by the source, yielding a result that will get generated by this function on evaluation

    release

    is a function that gets called after use terminates, either normally or in error, receiving as input the resource that needs that needs release, along with the result of use

  10. final def bracketE[B](use: (A) => Coeval[B])(release: (A, Either[Throwable, B]) => Coeval[Unit]): Coeval[B]

    Returns a task that treats the source task as the acquisition of a resource, which is then exploited by the use function and then released, with the possibility of distinguishing between successful termination and error, such that an appropriate release of resources can be executed.

    The bracket operation is the equivalent of the try {} finally {} statements from mainstream languages, installing the necessary exception handler to release the resource in the event of an exception being raised during the computation. If an exception is raised, then bracket will re-raise the exception after performing the release.

    The release function receives as input:

    • Left(error) in case use terminated with an error
    • Right(b) in case of success

    NOTE on error handling: one big difference versus try {} finally {} is that, in case both the release function and the use function throws, the error raised by use gets signaled and the error raised by release gets reported with System.err for Coeval or with Scheduler.reportFailure for Task.

    For example:

    Coeval("resource").bracket { _ =>
      // use
      Coeval.raiseError(new RuntimeException("Foo"))
    } { _ =>
      // release
      Coeval.raiseError(new RuntimeException("Bar"))
    }

    In this case the error signaled downstream is "Foo", while the "Bar" error gets reported. This is consistent with the behavior of Haskell's bracket operation and NOT with try {} finally {} from Scala, Java or JavaScript.

    use

    is a function that evaluates the resource yielded by the source, yielding a result that will get generated by this function on evaluation

    release

    Creates a new Coeval by applying a function to the successful result of the source, and returns a new instance equivalent to the result of the function.

    The application of flatMap is always lazy and because of the implementation it is memory safe and thus it can be used in recursive loops.

    Sample:

    def randomEven: Coeval[Int] =
      Coeval(Random.nextInt()).flatMap { x =>
        if (x < 0 || x % 2 == 1)

      if (newList.length < 5)
        continue(newList)
      else
        Coeval.now(newList)

    seed

  20. final def flatten[B](implicit ev: <:<[A, Coeval[B]]): Coeval[B]

    Memoizes (caches) the result of the source and reuses it on subsequent invocations of value.

    Memoizes (caches) the result of the source and reuses it on subsequent invocations of value.

    The resulting coeval will be idempotent, meaning that evaluating the resulting coeval multiple times will have the same effect as evaluating it once.

    UNSAFE — this operation allocates a shared, mutable reference, which can break in certain cases referential transparency, even if this operation guarantees idempotency (i.e. referential transparency implies idempotency, but idempotency does not imply referential transparency).

    The allocation of a mutable reference is known to be a side effect, thus breaking referential transparency, even if calling this method does not trigger the evaluation of side effects suspended by the source.

    Use with care. Sometimes it's easier to just keep a shared, memoized reference to some connection, but keep in mind it might be better to pass such a reference around as a parameter.

    On error restarts the source with a customizable restart loop.

    On error restarts the source with a customizable restart loop.

    This operation keeps an internal state, with a start value, an internal state that gets evolved and based on which the next step gets decided, e.g. should it restart, or should it give up and rethrow the current error.

    Example that implements a simple retry policy that retries for a maximum of 10 times before giving up:

    import scala.util.Random
    
    val fa = Coeval {
      if (Random.nextInt(20) > 10)
        throw new RuntimeException("boo")
      else 78
    }
    
    fa.onErrorRestartLoop(10) { (err, maxRetries, retry) =>
      if (maxRetries > 0)
        // Do next retry please
        retry(maxRetries - 1)
      else
        // No retries left, rethrow the error
        Coeval.raiseError(err)
    }

    The given function injects the following parameters:

    1. error reference that was thrown 2. the current state, based on which a decision for the retry is made 3. retry: S => Task[B] function that schedules the next retry
    initial

    is the initial state used to determine the next on error retry cycle

    f

    is a function that injects the current error, state, a function that can signal a retry is to be made and returns the next coeval

  43. def redeem[B](recover: (Throwable) => B, map: (A) => B): Coeval[B]

    Returns a new value that transforms the result of the source, given the recover or map functions, which get executed depending on whether the result is successful or if it ends in error.

    Returns a new value that transforms the result of the source, given the recover or map functions, which get executed depending on whether the result is successful or if it ends in error.

    This is an optimization on usage of attempt and map, this equivalence being true:

    coeval.redeem(recover, map) <-> coeval.attempt.map(_.fold(recover, map))

    Usage of redeem subsumes onErrorHandle because:

    coeval.redeem(fe, id) <-> coeval.onErrorHandle(fe)

    recover

    is a function used for error recover in case the source ends in error

    map

    is a function used for mapping the result of the source in case it ends in success

  44. def redeemWith[B](recover: (Throwable) => Coeval[B], bind: (A) => Coeval[B]): Coeval[B]

    Returns a new value that transforms the result of the source, given the recover or bind functions, which get executed depending on whether the result is successful or if it ends in error.

    Returns a new value that transforms the result of the source, given the recover or bind functions, which get executed depending on whether the result is successful or if it ends in error.

    This is an optimization on usage of attempt and flatMap, this equivalence being available:

    Usage of redeemWith subsumes onErrorHandleWith because:

    coeval.redeemWith(fe, F.pure) <-> coeval.onErrorHandleWith(fe)

    Usage of redeemWith also subsumes flatMap because:

    coeval.redeemWith(Coeval.raiseError, fs) <-> coeval.flatMap(fs)

    recover

    is the function that gets called to recover the source in case of error

    bind

    is the function that gets to transform the source in case of success

  45. final def restartUntil(p: (A) => Boolean): Coeval[A]

    Given a predicate function, keep retrying the coeval until the function returns true.

    Converts the source Coeval into any F[_] that implements cats.effect.Sync.

    For example it can work with cats.effect.IO:

    import cats._

    val source = Coeval { 1 + 1 }
    
    val asIO: IO[Int]     = source.to[IO]
