在EitherT上留下flatMap

假设我有返回Future[Either[_, _]的函数,我想在失败的情况下应用其中一些函数,这意味着只将它们应用于左侧。简化的例子是:

def operation1: Future[Either[String, Int]] = Future.successful(Right(5))
def operation2: Future[Either[String, Int]] = Future.successful(Left("error"))
def operation2FallBackWork = Future.successful{
  println("Doing some revert stuff")
  Left("Error happened, but reverting was successful")
}

val res = for {
  res1 <- EitherT.fromEither(operation1)
  res2 <- EitherT.fromEither(operation2)//.leftFlatMap(operation2FallBackWork) -????
} yield res1 + res2

Await.result(res.toEither, 5 seconds)

如何实现?

leftFlatMap最接近的是MonadError&#39; s handleError,它具有您对leftFlatMap内容所期望的签名(虽然请注意,您需要将回退操作更改为EitherT并提供常量函数,而不是按原样传递它。您可以像这样直接使用EitherT实例:

import scala.concurrent.{ Await, Future }
import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext.Implicits.global
import scala.concurrent.duration._
import scalaz._, Scalaz._

def operation1: Future[Either[String, Int]] = Future.successful(Right(5))
def operation2: Future[Either[String, Int]] = Future.successful(Left("error"))

def operation2FallBack: EitherT[Future, String, Int] = EitherT(
  Future.successful {
    println("Doing some revert stuff")
    "Error happened, but reverting was successful".left
  }
)

val E: MonadError[({ type L[x] = EitherT[Future, String, x] })#L, String] =
  implicitly

val res = for {
  a <- EitherT.fromEither(operation1)
  b <- E.handleError(EitherT.fromEither(operation2))(_ => operation2FallBack)
} yield a + b

Await.result(res.toEither, 5.seconds)

您还可以使用MonadError提供的语法使其看起来像EitherT具有handleError方法,尽管需要更多的仪式才能让Scala编译器识别出来您的操作形式正确:

import scala.concurrent.{ Await, Future }
import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext.Implicits.global
import scala.concurrent.duration._
import scalaz._, Scalaz._

type FE[x] = EitherT[Future, String, x]

def operation1: FE[Int] = EitherT(Future.successful(5.right))
def operation2: FE[Int] = EitherT(Future.successful("error".left))

def operation2FallBack: FE[Int] = EitherT(
  Future.successful {
    println("Doing some revert stuff")
    "Error happened, but reverting was successful".left
  }
)

val res = for {
  a <- operation1
  b <- operation2.handleError(_ => operation2FallBack)
} yield a + b

Await.result(res.toEither, 5.seconds)

我更喜欢这第二个版本,但这只是风格和品味的问题。
