Represents a composable transformation from an encoded type E to a decoded type T.
When to use
Use when you need a schema getter to build and compose custom transformations
for Schema.decodeTo or Schema.decode.
Details
A getter wraps a function Option<E> -> Effect<Option<T>, Issue, R>. It
receives Option.None when the encoded key is absent, such as a missing
struct field, and returns Option.None to omit the value from the decoded
output. It fails with Issue on invalid input and may require Effect
services via R. .map(f) applies f to the decoded value inside Some
while leaving None unchanged. .compose(other) chains two getters by
feeding the output of this into other; passthrough getters on either side
are optimized away.
Example (Creating and composing getters)
import { SchemaGetter } from "effect"
const parseNumber = SchemaGetter.transform<number, string>((s) => Number(s))
const double = SchemaGetter.transform<number, number>((n) => n * 2)
const composed = parseNumber.compose(double)
// composed: Getter<number, string> — parses then doubles
Getter<interface Uint8Array<TArrayBuffer extends ArrayBufferLike = ArrayBufferLike>A typed array of 8-bit unsigned integer values. The contents are initialized to 0. If the
requested number of bytes could not be allocated an exception is raised.
Uint8Array, function (type parameter) E in decodeBase64<E extends string>(): Getter<Uint8Array, E>E> {
return function transformOrFail<T, E, R = never>(
f: (
e: E,
options: SchemaAST.ParseOptions
) => Effect.Effect<T, SchemaIssue.Issue, R>
): Getter<T, E, R>
Creates a getter that applies a fallible, effectful transformation to present values.
When to use
Use when you need a schema getter for a transformation that may fail, require
Effect services, or run asynchronously.
Details
- Skips
None inputs — only called when a value is present.
- On success, wraps the result in
Some.
- On failure, propagates the
Issue.
Example (Parsing with failure)
import { Effect, Option, SchemaGetter, SchemaIssue } from "effect"
const safeParseInt = SchemaGetter.transformOrFail<number, string>(
(s) => {
const n = parseInt(s, 10)
return isNaN(n)
? Effect.fail(new SchemaIssue.InvalidValue(Option.some(s), { message: "not an integer" }))
: Effect.succeed(n)
}
)

import SchemaIssueSchemaIssue.constructor InvalidValue(actual: Option.Option<unknown>, annotations?: Schema.Annotations.Issue | undefined): SchemaIssue.InvalidValueRepresents a schema issue produced when the input has the correct type but its value violates a
constraint (e.g. a string that is too short, a number out of range).
When to use
Use when you need to detect constraint violations from Schema.filter,
Schema.minLength, Schema.greaterThan, or similar checks.
Details
actual is Option.some(value) when the failing value is known, or
Option.none() when absent.annotations optionally carries a message string for formatting.- The default formatter renders this as
"Invalid data <actual>" unless a
custom message annotation is provided.
Example (Returning InvalidValue from a custom filter)
import { Option, SchemaIssue } from "effect"
const issue = new SchemaIssue.InvalidValue(
Option.some(""),
{ message: "must not be empty" }
)
console.log(String(issue))
// "must not be empty"
