final class TaskLocal[A] extends AnyRef

A TaskLocal is like a ThreadLocal that is pure and with a flexible scope, being processed in the context of the Task data type.

This data type wraps monix.execution.misc.Local.

Just like a ThreadLocal, usage of a TaskLocal is safe, the state of all current locals being transported over async boundaries (aka when threads get forked) by the Task run-loop implementation, but only when the Task reference gets executed with Task.Options.localContextPropagation set to true, or it uses a monix.execution.schedulers.TracingScheduler.

One way to achieve this is with Task.executeWithOptions, a single call is sufficient just before runAsync:

import monix.execution.Scheduler.Implicits.global

val t = Task(42)
t.executeWithOptions(_.enableLocalContextPropagation)
  // triggers the actual execution
  .runToFuture

Another possibility is to use Task.runToFutureOpt or Task.runToFutureOpt instead of runAsync and specify the set of options implicitly:

{
  implicit val options = Task.defaultOptions.enableLocalContextPropagation

  // Options passed implicitly
  val f = t.runToFutureOpt
}

Full example:

import monix.eval.{Task, TaskLocal}

val task: Task[Unit] =
  for {
    local <- TaskLocal(0)
    value1 <- local.read // value1 == 0
    _ <- local.write(100)
    value2 <- local.read // value2 == 100
    value3 <- local.bind(200)(local.read.map(_ * 2)) // value3 == 200 * 2
    value4 <- local.read // value4 == 100
    _ <- local.clear
    value5 <- local.read // value5 == 0
  } yield {
    // Should print 0, 100, 400, 100, 0
    println("value1: " + value1)
    println("value2: " + value2)
    println("value3: " + value3)
    println("value4: " + value4)
    println("value5: " + value5)
  }

// For transporting locals over async boundaries defined by
// Task, any Scheduler will do, however for transporting locals
// over async boundaries managed by Future and others, you need
// a `TracingScheduler` here:
import monix.execution.Scheduler.Implicits.global

// Needs enabling the "localContextPropagation" option
// just before execution
implicit val opts = Task.defaultOptions.enableLocalContextPropagation

// Triggering actual execution
val result = task.runToFutureOpt

  5. def bind[R](value: A)(task: Task[R]): Task[R]

    Binds the local var to a value for the duration of the given task execution.

    Binds the local var to a value for the duration of the given task execution.

    // Should yield 200 on execution, regardless of what value
    // we have in `local` at the time of evaluation
    val task: Task[Int] =
      for {
        local <- TaskLocal(0)
        value <- local.bind(100)(local.read.map(_ * 2))
      } yield value
    value

    is the value to be set in this local var when the task evaluation is triggered (aka lazily)

    task

    is the Task to wrap, having the given value as the response to read queries and transported over asynchronous boundaries — on finish the local gets reset to the previous value

  6. def bindClear[R](task: Task[R]): Task[R]

    Clears the local var to the default for the duration of the given task execution.

    Clears the local var to the default for the duration of the given task execution.

    // Should yield 0 on execution, regardless of what value
    // we have in `local` at the time of evaluation
    val task: Task[Int] =
      for {
        local <- TaskLocal(0)

    task

    is the Task to wrap, having the local cleared, returning the default as the response to read queries and transported over asynchronous boundaries — on finish the local gets reset to the previous value

  7. def bindL[R](value: Task[A])(task: Task[R]): Task[R]

    Binds the local var to a value for the duration of the given task execution, the value itself being lazily evaluated in the Task context.

      } yield value
    value

    is the value to be set in this local var when the task evaluation is triggered (aka lazily)

    task

    bind for the version with a strict value.

  8. def clear: Task[Unit]
