self: interface TxDequeue<out A, out E = never>Namespace containing type definitions for TxDequeue variance annotations.
A TxDequeue represents the read-only interface of a transactional queue, providing
operations for consuming elements (dequeue operations) and inspecting queue state.
Example (Taking values through dequeue handles)
import { Effect, TxQueue } from "effect"
const program = Effect.gen(function*() {
// Queue without error channel
const queue = yield* TxQueue.bounded<number>(10)
yield* TxQueue.offer(queue, 42)
const item = yield* TxQueue.take(queue)

// Queue with error channel - errors propagate through E-channel

// All dequeue operations now fail with the error directly
const takeResult = yield* Effect.flip(TxQueue.take(faultTolerantQueue)) // "processing failed"
const peekResult = yield* Effect.flip(TxQueue.peek(faultTolerantQueue)) // "processing failed"
})

job. The workflow requires some context R, and may fail with an error of
type E, or succeed with a value of type A.
When to use
Use when you need to represent a lazy, composable workflow that can require
services, fail with a typed error, or succeed with a typed value.
Details
Effect values model resourceful interaction with the outside world,
including synchronous, asynchronous, concurrent, and parallel interaction.
They use a fiber-based concurrency model, with built-in support for
scheduling, fine-grained interruption, structured concurrency, and high
scalability.
To run an Effect value, you need a Runtime, which is a type that is
capable of executing Effect values.
Effect<import OptionOption.type Option<A> = Option.None<A> | Option.Some<A>The Option data type represents optional values. An Option<A> is either
Some<A>, containing a value of type A, or None, representing absence.
When to use
Use to represent initial values that may not yet exist
- Returning from partial functions (not defined for all inputs)
- Managing optional fields in data structures
Namespace containing utility types for Option.
When to use
Use to access type-level helpers associated with Option.

effect: Effect<A, E, R>
) => Effect<A, E, Exclude<R, Transaction>>
Defines a transaction boundary. Transactions are "all or nothing" with respect to changes
made to transactional values (i.e. TxRef) that occur within the transaction body.
Details
If called inside an active transaction, tx composes with the current transaction and reuses
its journal and retry state instead of creating a nested boundary.
Effect transactions are optimistic with retry. A transaction is retried when
its body explicitly calls Effect.txRetry and any accessed transactional
value changes, or when any accessed transactional value changes because a
different transaction commits before the current one.
The outermost tx call creates the transaction boundary and commits or rolls back the full
composed transaction.
Example (Running a transaction)
import { Effect, TxRef } from "effect"
const program = Effect.gen(function*() {
const ref1 = yield* TxRef.make(0)
const ref2 = yield* TxRef.make(0)
// Nested tx calls compose into the same transaction
yield* Effect.tx(Effect.gen(function*() {
yield* TxRef.set(ref1, 10)
yield* Effect.tx(TxRef.set(ref2, 20))
const sum = (yield* TxRef.get(ref1)) + (yield* TxRef.get(ref2))
console.log(`Transaction sum: ${sum}`)
}))
console.log(`Final ref1: ${yield* TxRef.get(ref1)}`) // 10
console.log(`Final ref2: ${yield* TxRef.get(ref2)}`) // 20
})
