import QueueQueue.interface Dequeue<out A, out E = never>A Dequeue is a queue that can be taken from.
Details
This interface represents the read-only part of a Queue, allowing you to take
elements from the queue but not offer elements to it.
Example (Taking through dequeue handles)
import { Effect, Queue } from "effect"
const program = Effect.gen(function*() {
const queue = yield* Queue.bounded<string, never>(10)
// A Dequeue can only take elements
const dequeue: Queue.Dequeue<string> = queue
// Pre-populate the queue
yield* Queue.offerAll(queue, ["a", "b", "c"])
// Take elements using dequeue interface
const item = yield* Queue.take(dequeue)
console.log(item) // "a"
})

): interface Channel<out OutElem, out OutErr = never, out OutDone = void, in InElem = unknown, in InErr = unknown, in InDone = unknown, out Env = never>A Channel is a nexus of I/O operations, which supports both reading and
writing. A channel may read values of type InElem and write values of type
OutElem. When the channel finishes, it yields a value of type OutDone. A
channel may fail with a value of type OutErr.
Details
Channels are the foundation of Streams: both streams and sinks are built on
channels. Most users shouldn't have to use channels directly, as streams and
sinks are much more convenient and cover all common use cases. However, when
adding new stream and sink operators, or doing something highly specialized,
it may be useful to use channels directly.
Channels compose in a variety of ways:
- Piping: One channel can be piped to another channel, assuming the
input type of the second is the same as the output type of the first.
- Sequencing: The terminal value of one channel can be used to create
another channel, and both the first channel and the function that makes
the second channel can be composed into a channel.
- Concatenating: The output of one channel can be used to create other
channels, which are all concatenated together. The first channel and the
function that makes the other channels can be composed into a channel.
Example (Typing channels)
import type { Channel } from "effect"
// A channel that outputs numbers and requires no environment
type NumberChannel = Channel.Channel<number>
// A channel that outputs strings, can fail with Error, completes with boolean
type StringChannel = Channel.Channel<string, Error, boolean>
// A channel with all type parameters specified
type FullChannel = Channel.Channel<
string, // OutElem - output elements
Error, // OutErr - output errors
number, // OutDone - completion value
number, // InElem - input elements
string, // InErr - input errors
boolean, // InDone - input completion
{ db: string } // Env - required environment

Creates a Channel from an Effect that produces a Pull.
Example (Creating channels from pulls)
import { Channel, Effect } from "effect"
const channel = Channel.fromPull(
Effect.succeed(Effect.succeed(42))
)
fromPull(import EffectEffect.const succeed: <A>(value: A) => Effect<A>Creates an Effect that always succeeds with a given value.
When to use
Use when an effect should complete successfully with a specific value without any errors
or external dependencies.
Example (Creating a successful effect)
import { Effect } from "effect"
// Creating an effect that represents a successful scenario
//
// ┌─── Effect<number, never, never>
// ▼
const success = Effect.succeed(42)
succeed(import QueueQueue.const takeAll: <A, E>(
self: Dequeue<A, E>
) => Effect<Arr.NonEmptyArray<A>, E>
Takes all currently available messages, waiting until at least one message
is available when the queue is empty.
When to use
Use when consumers should process the next non-empty batch of buffered
messages instead of repeatedly taking one message at a time.
Details
Returns a non-empty array. If the queue completes or fails before a message
can be taken, the effect fails with the queue's terminal error.
Example (Taking all available values)
import { Cause, Effect, Queue } from "effect"
const program = Effect.gen(function*() {
const queue = yield* Queue.bounded<number, Cause.Done>(5)
// Add several messages
yield* Queue.offerAll(queue, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
// Take all available messages
const messages1 = yield* Queue.takeAll(queue)
console.log(messages1) // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
})
