Streams & Pipelines

When to use

• You’re building data pipelines with batching/backpressure
• You need controlled concurrency per element
• You must process large inputs with constant memory

Create

const s = Stream.fromIterable(items)

Transform

const out = s.pipe(
  Stream.mapEffect(processItem, { concurrency: 4 }),
  Stream.filter((a) => a.valid),
  Stream.grouped(100)
)

Consume

yield* Stream.runDrain(out)
// or
const all = yield* Stream.runCollect(out)

Resource-Safe

const fileLines = Stream.acquireRelease(open(), close).pipe(
  Stream.flatMap(readLines)
)

Resilience

const resilient = s.pipe(
  Stream.mapEffect((x) => op(x).pipe(Effect.retry(retry)))
)

Real-world snippet: Stream to S3 with progress and scoped background ticker

let downloadedBytes = 0

yield* Effect.gen(function* () {
  // background progress ticker
  yield* Effect.repeat(
    Effect.gen(function* () {
      const bytes = yield* Effect.succeed(downloadedBytes)
      yield* Effect.log(`Downloaded ${bytes}/${contentLength} bytes`)
    }),
    Schedule.forever.pipe(Schedule.delayed(() => "2 seconds"))
  ).pipe(Effect.delay("100 millis"), Effect.forkScoped)

  yield* s3.putObject(key,
    resp.stream.pipe(
      Stream.tap((chunk) => { downloadedBytes += chunk.length; return Effect.void })
    ),
    { contentLength }
  )
}).pipe(Effect.scoped)

Guidance

• Prefer Stream.mapEffect with concurrency to control parallel work
• Use grouped(n) for batching network/DB operations
• Always model resource acquisition with acquireRelease

Pitfalls

• Collecting massive streams into memory → prefer runDrain or chunked writes
• Doing blocking IO in transformations → keep operations effectful and non-blocking

Cross-links

• Concurrency: pools and timeouts for per-item work
• Resources: scope/finalizers for pipeline resources

Local Source Reference

CRITICAL: Search local Effect source before implementing

The full Effect source code is available at docs/effect-source/. Always search the actual implementation before writing Effect code.

Key Source Files

• Stream: docs/effect-source/effect/src/Stream.ts
• Sink: docs/effect-source/effect/src/Sink.ts
• Channel: docs/effect-source/effect/src/Channel.ts

# Look at Stream test examples

Workflow

1. Identify the Stream API you need (e.g., mapEffect, grouped)
2. Search docs/effect-source/effect/src/Stream.ts for the implementation
3. Study the types and pipeline patterns
4. Look at test files for usage examples
5. Write your code based on real implementations
