<S extends Chunk<any>>(self: S): S extends NonEmptyChunk<any>
? RA.NonEmptyArray<Chunk.Infer<S>>
: Array<Chunk.Infer<S>>Converts a Chunk into an Array. If the provided Chunk is non-empty
(NonEmptyChunk), the function will return a NonEmptyArray, ensuring the
non-empty property is preserved.
Example (Converting chunks to mutable arrays)
import { Chunk } from "effect"
const chunk = Chunk.make(1, 2, 3)
const array = Chunk.toArray(chunk)
console.log(array) // [1, 2, 3]
console.log(Array.isArray(array)) // true
// With empty chunk
const emptyChunk = Chunk.empty<number>()
console.log(Chunk.toArray(emptyChunk)) // []export const const toArray: <S extends Chunk<any>>(
self: S
) => S extends NonEmptyChunk<any>
? RA.NonEmptyArray<Chunk.Infer<S>>

toArray: <function (type parameter) S in <S extends Chunk<any>>(self: S): S extends NonEmptyChunk<any> ? RA.NonEmptyArray<Chunk.Infer<S>> : Array<Chunk.Infer<S>>S extends interface Chunk<out A>A Chunk is an immutable, ordered collection optimized for efficient concatenation and access patterns.
Example (Inspecting chunk values)
import { Chunk } from "effect"
const chunk: Chunk.Chunk<number> = Chunk.make(1, 2, 3)
console.log(chunk.length) // 3
console.log(Chunk.toArray(chunk)) // [1, 2, 3]
A namespace containing utility types for Chunk operations.
Example (Working with Chunk utility types)
import type { Chunk } from "effect"
// Extract the element type from a Chunk
declare const chunk: Chunk.Chunk<string>
type ElementType = Chunk.Chunk.Infer<typeof chunk> // string
// Create a preserving non-emptiness
declare const nonEmptyChunk: Chunk.NonEmptyChunk<number>
type WithString = Chunk.Chunk.With<typeof nonEmptyChunk, string> // Chunk.NonEmptyChunk<string>

Example (Working with non-empty chunks)
import { Chunk } from "effect"
const nonEmptyChunk: Chunk.NonEmptyChunk<number> = Chunk.make(1, 2, 3)
console.log(Chunk.headNonEmpty(nonEmptyChunk)) // 1

Example (Inferring element types)
