<T>(self: MutableRef<T>): TGets the current value of the MutableRef.
When to use
Use to read the current MutableRef value without mutating it.
Example (Reading current values)
import { MutableRef } from "effect"
const ref = MutableRef.make("hello")
console.log(MutableRef.get(ref)) // "hello"
MutableRef.set(ref, "world")
console.log(MutableRef.get(ref)) // "world"
// Reading complex objects
const config = MutableRef.make({ port: 3000, host: "localhost" })
const currentConfig = MutableRef.get(config)
console.log(currentConfig.port) // 3000
// Multiple reads return the same value
const value1 = MutableRef.get(ref)
const value2 = MutableRef.get(ref)
console.log(value1 === value2) // truegeneral

interface MutableRef<out T>A synchronous mutable reference that stores a current value.
When to use
Use to keep local mutable state in a stable, pipeable reference.
Details
Read or write the value directly through .current, or use the MutableRef
helpers for pipeable updates such as get, set, update, and
compareAndSet. All operations mutate the same reference in place.
Example (Creating and updating refs)
import { MutableRef } from "effect"
// Create a mutable reference
const ref: MutableRef.MutableRef<number> = MutableRef.make(42)
// Read the current value
console.log(ref.current) // 42
console.log(MutableRef.get(ref)) // 42
// Update the value
ref.current = 100
console.log(MutableRef.get(ref)) // 100
// Use with complex types
interface Config {
timeout: number
retries: number
}
const config: MutableRef.MutableRef<Config> = MutableRef.make({
timeout: 5000,
retries: 3
})
// Update through the interface
config.current = { timeout: 10000, retries: 5 }
console.log(config.current.timeout) // 10000
