How to convert an Effect to an Option ?
I know that Option is a subtype of Effect
.
I wanted to use Effect
.flatMap
(element
=
> Option
.fromNullable
(element
)
)
But what I get is typed as an Effect
.
How can I convert an effect to an option
?
I want to represent an async operation that can return null as an Option
.
I want to go from this
Promise<T | null>
Promise<T | null>
to that
Option<T>
Option<T>
.
