Callgebra

The little algebra of callbacks.

Introduction

This package exports functions for composing callbacks. You can read about the idea in my Medium post about composable callbacks.

Usage

Node

$ npm install --save callgebra

On Node 12 and up, this module can be loaded directly with import or require. On Node versions below 12, require or the esm-loader can be used.

import {of, callback} from 'callgebra';
callback (console.log) (of (42));

There's a UMD file included in the NPM package, also available via jsDelivr: https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/umd.js

This file adds flutureProject to the global scope, or use CommonJS/AMD when available.

const {of, callback} = require ('callgebra');
callback (console.log) (of (42));

API

type Callback a b = (b -> a) -> a

Creates a callback for a given return value.

Sequence two callback-accepting functions.

Modify the return value of a callback.

Apply the function returned by one callback to the value returned by another.

Given a function and a Callback, runs the Callback using the function.
