Data
The Data module offers a range of features that make it easier to create and manipulate data structures in your TypeScript applications. It includes functionalities for defining data types, ensuring equality between data objects, and hashing data for efficient comparison.
The module offers APIs tailored for comparing existing values of your data types. Alternatively, it provides mechanisms for defining constructors for your data types.
If you need to compare existing values for equality without the need for explicit implementations, consider using the Data module. It provides convenient APIs that generate default implementations for Equal and Hash, making equality checks a breeze.
In this example, we use the Data.struct
function to create structured data objects and check their equality using Equal.equals
.

Data, import Equal
Equal } from "effect"2

readonly name: string;

var console: Console
The `console` module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.
The module exports two specific components:
* A `Console` class with methods such as `console.log()`, `console.error()` and `console.warn()` that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
* A global `console` instance configured to write to [`process.stdout`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstdout) and
[`process.stderr`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstderr). The global `console` can be used without importing the `node:console` module.
_**Warning**_: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the [`note on process I/O`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#a-note-on-process-io) for
more information.
Example using the global `console`:
```js
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
// Error: Whoops, something bad happened
// at [eval]:5:15
// at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
// at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
// at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
// at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
// at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
// at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3
const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
```
Example using the `Console` class:
```js
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);
myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err
const name = 'Will Robinson';
myConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to err
```
console.(method) Console.log(message?: any, ...optionalParams: any[]): void
Prints to `stdout` with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the
first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution
values similar to [`printf(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/printf.3.html)
(the arguments are all passed to [`util.format()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/util.html#utilformatformat-args)).
```js
const count = 5;
console.log('count: %d', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout
console.log('count:', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout
```

* A global `console` instance configured to write to [`process.stdout`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstdout) and
[`process.stderr`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstderr). The global `console` can be used without importing the `node:console` module.
_**Warning**_: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the [`note on process I/O`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#a-note-on-process-io) for

In this extended example, we create an array of person objects using the Data.array
function.
We then compare this array with another array of person objects using Equal.equals
,
and the result is true
since the arrays contain structurally equal elements.
The module introduces a concept known as “Case classes”, which automate various essential operations when defining data types. These operations include generating constructors, handling equality checks, and managing hashing.
Case classes can be defined in two primary ways:
- as plain objects using
case
ortagged
- as TypeScript classes using
Class
orTaggedClass
This helper automatically provides implementations for constructors, equality checks, and hashing for your data type.

equals(const mike1: Person
mike1, const john: Person

Here we create a constructor for Person
using Data.case
.
The resulting instances come with built-in equality checks, making it simple to compare them using Equal.equals
.
In certain situations, like when you’re defining a data type that includes a tag field (commonly used in disjoint unions),
using the case
approach can become repetitive and cumbersome.
This is because you’re required to specify the tag every time you create an instance:
1import { import Data
Data } from "effect"2
3interface interface Person
Person {4 readonly (property) Person._tag: "Person"
_tag: "Person" // the tag5 readonly (property) Person.name: string
name: string6}7
8const const Person: Data.Case.Constructor<Person, never>
Person = import Data
Data.(alias) case<Person>(): Data.Case.Constructor<Person, never>
export case
Provides a constructor for the specified `Case`.
case<interface Person
Person>()9
10// It can be quite frustrating to repeat `_tag: 'Person'` every time...11const const mike: Person
mike = const Person: Data.Case.Constructor
(args: {
readonly _tag: "Person";
readonly name: string;
}) => Person
Person({ (property) _tag: "Person"
_tag: "Person", (property) name: string
name: "Mike" })12const const john: Person
john = const Person: Data.Case.Constructor
(args: {
readonly _tag: "Person";
readonly name: string;
}) => Person
Person({ (property) _tag: "Person"
_tag: "Person", (property) name: string
name: "John" })
To make your life easier, the tagged
helper simplifies this process by allowing you to define the tag only once. It follows the convention within the Effect ecosystem of naming the tag field with "_tag"
:
1import { import Data
Data } from "effect"2
3interface interface Person
Person {4 readonly (property) Person._tag: "Person"
_tag: "Person" // the tag5 readonly (property) Person.name: string
name: string6}7
8const const Person: Data.Case.Constructor<Person, "_tag">
Person = import Data
Data.const tagged: <Person>(tag: "Person") => Data.Case.Constructor<Person, "_tag">
Provides a tagged constructor for the specified `Case`.
tagged<interface Person
Person>("Person")9
10// Now, it's much more convenient...11const const mike: Person
mike = const Person: Data.Case.Constructor
(args: {
readonly name: string;
}) => Person
Person({ (property) name: string

var console: Console
The `console` module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.
The module exports two specific components:
* A `Console` class with methods such as `console.log()`, `console.error()` and `console.warn()` that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
* A global `console` instance configured to write to [`process.stdout`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstdout) and
[`process.stderr`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstderr). The global `console` can be used without importing the `node:console` module.
_**Warning**_: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the [`note on process I/O`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#a-note-on-process-io) for
more information.
Example using the global `console`:
```js
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
// Error: Whoops, something bad happened
// at [eval]:5:15
// at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
// at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
// at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
// at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
// at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
// at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3
const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
```
Example using the `Console` class:
```js
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);
myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err
const name = 'Will Robinson';
myConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to err
```
console.(method) Console.log(message?: any, ...optionalParams: any[]): void
Prints to `stdout` with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the
first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution
values similar to [`printf(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/printf.3.html)
(the arguments are all passed to [`util.format()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/util.html#utilformatformat-args)).

If you’re looking to create a disjoint union of tagged structs, you can easily achieve this using Data.TaggedEnum
and Data.taggedEnum
.
This feature simplifies the process of defining and working with unions of plain objects.
Let’s walk through an example to see how this works:
1import { import Data
Data, import Equal
Equal } from "effect"2
3// Define a union type using TaggedEnum4type type RemoteData = {
readonly _tag: "Loading";
} | {
readonly _tag: "Success";
readonly data: string;
} | {
readonly _tag: "Failure";
readonly reason: string;
}
RemoteData = import Data
Data.type TaggedEnum<A extends Record<string, Record<string, any>> & UntaggedChildren<A>> = keyof A extends infer Tag ? Tag extends keyof A ? Simplify<{
readonly _tag: Tag;
} & { readonly [K in keyof A[Tag]]: A[Tag][K]; }> : never : never
namespace TaggedEnum
Create a tagged enum data type, which is a union of `Data` structs.
```ts
import { Data } from "effect"
type HttpError = Data.TaggedEnum<{
BadRequest: { readonly status: 400, readonly message: string }
NotFound: { readonly status: 404, readonly message: string }
}>
// Equivalent to:
type HttpErrorPlain =
| {
readonly _tag: "BadRequest"
readonly status: 400
readonly message: string
}
| {
readonly _tag: "NotFound"
readonly status: 404
readonly message: string
}
```
TaggedEnum<{5 (property) Loading: {}
Loading: {}6 (property) Success: {
readonly data: string;
}
Success: { readonly (property) data: string
data: string }7 (property) Failure: {
readonly reason: string;
}
Failure: { readonly (property) reason: string
reason: string }8}>9
10// Create constructors for specific error types11const { const Loading: Data.Case.Constructor<{
readonly _tag: "Loading";
}, "_tag">
Loading, const Success: Data.Case.Constructor<{
readonly _tag: "Success";
readonly data: string;
}, "_tag">
Success, const Failure: Data.Case.Constructor<{
readonly _tag: "Failure";
readonly reason: string;
}, "_tag">
Failure } = import Data
Data.const taggedEnum: <{
readonly _tag: "Loading";
} | {
readonly _tag: "Success";
readonly data: string;
} | {
readonly _tag: "Failure";
readonly reason: string;
}>() => {
readonly Loading: Data.Case.Constructor<{
readonly _tag: "Loading";
}, "_tag">;
readonly Success: Data.Case.Constructor<...>;
readonly Failure: Data.Case.Constructor<...>;
readonly $is: <Tag>(tag: Tag) => (u: unknown) => u is Extract<...> | ... 1 more ... | Extract<...>;
readonly $match: {
...;
};
} (+4 overloads)
Create a constructor for a tagged union of `Data` structs.
You can also pass a `TaggedEnum.WithGenerics` if you want to add generics to
the constructor.
taggedEnum<type RemoteData = {
readonly _tag: "Loading";
} | {
readonly _tag: "Success";
readonly data: string;
} | {
readonly _tag: "Failure";
readonly reason: string;
}

}

The `console` module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.
The module exports two specific components:
* A `Console` class with methods such as `console.log()`, `console.error()` and `console.warn()` that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
* A global `console` instance configured to write to [`process.stdout`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstdout) and
[`process.stderr`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstderr). The global `console` can be used without importing the `node:console` module.
_**Warning**_: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the [`note on process I/O`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#a-note-on-process-io) for
more information.
Example using the global `console`:
```js
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
// Error: Whoops, something bad happened
// at [eval]:5:15
// at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
// at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
// at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
// at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
// at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
// at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3
const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
```
Example using the `Console` class:
```js
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);
myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err
const name = 'Will Robinson';
myConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to err
```
console.(method) Console.log(message?: any, ...optionalParams: any[]): void
Prints to `stdout` with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the
first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution
values similar to [`printf(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/printf.3.html)
(the arguments are all passed to [`util.format()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/util.html#utilformatformat-args)).
```js
const count = 5;
console.log('count: %d', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout

In this example:
- We define a
RemoteData
union type with three states:Loading
,Success
, andFailure
. - We use
Data.taggedEnum
to create constructors for these states. - We create instances of each state and check for equality using
Equal.equals
.
Note that it follows the convention within the Effect ecosystem of naming the tag field with "_tag"
.
You can also create tagged unions with generics using TaggedEnum.WithGenerics
. This allows for more flexible and reusable type definitions.

The module exports two specific components:
* A `Console` class with methods such as `console.log()`, `console.error()` and `console.warn()` that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
* A global `console` instance configured to write to [`process.stdout`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstdout) and
[`process.stderr`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstderr). The global `console` can be used without importing the `node:console` module.
_**Warning**_: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the [`note on process I/O`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#a-note-on-process-io) for
more information.
Example using the global `console`:
```js
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
// Error: Whoops, something bad happened
// at [eval]:5:15
// at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
// at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
// at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
// at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
// at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
// at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3
const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
```
Example using the `Console` class:
```js
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);
myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err
const name = 'Will Robinson';
myConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to err
```
console.(method) Console.log(message?: any, ...optionalParams: any[]): void
Prints to `stdout` with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the
first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution
values similar to [`printf(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/printf.3.html)
(the arguments are all passed to [`util.format()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/util.html#utilformatformat-args)).

Data } from "effect"2
3class class NotFound
NotFound extends import Data
Data.const Error: new <A extends Record<string, any> = {}>(args: Equals<A, {}> extends true ? void : { readonly [P in keyof A]: A[P]; }) => YieldableError & Readonly<A>

Additionally, NotFound
is “yieldable” as it is an Effect
, so there’s no need to use Effect.fail
:
1import { import Data
Data, import Effect
Effect } from "effect"2
3class class NotFound
NotFound extends import Data
Data.const Error: new <A extends Record<string, any> = {}>(args: Equals<A, {}> extends true ? void : { readonly [P in keyof A]: A[P]; }) => YieldableError & Readonly<A>
Provides a constructor for a Case Class.

Provides a constructor for a Case Class.
NotFound({7 (property) message: string
message: "Cannot find this file",8 (property) file: string

In Effect, there’s a special convention to add a _tag
field to custom errors. This convention simplifies certain operations, such as error handling with APIs like Effect.catchTag
or Effect.catchTags
. Therefore, the TaggedError
API simplifies the process of creating custom errors by automatically adding this type of tag without needing to specify it every time you create a new error:
1import { import Data
Data, import Effect
Effect, import Console
Console } from "effect"2
3class class NotFound
NotFound extends import Data
Data.const TaggedError: <"NotFound">(tag: "NotFound") => new <A>(args: Equals<A, {}> extends true ? void : { readonly [P in keyof A as P extends "_tag" ? never : P]: A[P]; }) => YieldableError & {

19import Effect
Effect.const runPromise: <void, never>(effect: Effect.Effect<void, never, never>, options?: {
readonly signal?: AbortSignal;
} | undefined) => Promise<void>
Executes an effect and returns a `Promise` that resolves with the result.
Use `runPromise` when working with asynchronous effects and you need to integrate with code that uses Promises.
If the effect fails, the returned Promise will be rejected with the error.
runPromise(const program: Effect.Effect<void, never, never>
program)20// Output: Cannot find this file (foo.txt)
Adding a cause
property to errors created with Data.Error
or Data.TaggedError
integrates with the native cause

11import Effect
Effect.const runPromise: <void, MyError>(effect: Effect.Effect<void, MyError, never>, options?: {
readonly signal?: AbortSignal;
} | undefined) => Promise<void>
Executes an effect and returns a `Promise` that resolves with the result.
Use `runPromise` when working with asynchronous effects and you need to integrate with code that uses Promises.
If the effect fails, the returned Promise will be rejected with the error.
