abstract class Callback[-E, -A] extends (Either[E, A]) => Unit
Represents a callback that should be called asynchronously with the result of a computation.
This is an Either[E, A] => Unit
with an OOP interface that
avoids extra boxing, along with overloads of apply
.
The onSuccess
method should be called only once, with the successful
result, whereas onError
should be called if the result is an error.
Obviously Callback
describes unsafe side-effects, a fact that is
highlighted by the usage of Unit
as the return type. Obviously
callbacks are unsafe to use in pure code, but are necessary for
describing asynchronous processes.
THREAD-SAFETY: callback implementations are NOT thread-safe by contract, this depends on the implementation. Callbacks can be made easily thread-safe via wrapping with:
NOTE that callbacks injected in the Task async builders (e.g. Task.async) are thread-safe.

Package Overview
monix.execution exposes lower level primitives for dealing with asynchronous execution:
Atomic
types, as alternative tojava.util.concurrent.atomic
monix.catnap exposes pure abstractions built on top of the Cats-Effect type classes:
monix.eval is for dealing with evaluation of results, thus exposing Task and Coeval.
monix.reactive exposes the
Observable
pattern:Observable
implementationsmonix.tail exposes Iterant for purely functional pull based streaming:
Batch
andBatchCursor
, the alternatives to Scala'sIterable
andIterator
respectively that we are using within Iterant's encodingYou can control evaluation with type you choose - be it Task, Coeval, cats.effect.IO or your own as long as you provide correct cats-effect or cats typeclass instance.
