<A, E, R, E2 = never, R2 = never>(
self: Effect<A, E, R>,
condition: Effect<boolean, E2, R2>
): Effect<Option<A>, E | E2, R | R2>Runs an effect conditionally based on the result of an effectful boolean condition.
When to use
Use when you need an effectful check to decide whether another effect should run while representing the skipped case explicitly.
Details
The condition effect is evaluated first. If it succeeds with true, the
source effect is run and its success value is wrapped in Option.some. If it
succeeds with false, the source effect is skipped and the result is
Option.none. If the condition effect fails, that failure is preserved.
Example (Conditionally running an effect)
import { Console, Effect } from "effect"
const shouldLog = true
const program = Effect.when(
Console.log("Condition is true!"),
Effect.succeed(shouldLog)
)
Effect.runPromise(program).then(console.log)
// Output: "Condition is true!"
// { _id: 'Option', _tag: 'Some', value: undefined }export const const when: {

condition: interface Effect<out A, out E = never, out R = never>The Effect interface defines a value that lazily describes a workflow or
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.
