Type-safe eavesdropping

• tap computation (i.e. Task)
• don't block the main computation and run taps in parallel
• don't stop the main computation if tapping fails
• safely release used resources
• optionally, interrupt tapping after some time

The implementation is based on the Writer monad, which is often used for logging.

The idea is to have a sort non-blocking Ramda tap function. A probe is immediately executed, but we do not wait for a response before passing to the next step.

Example

const runTask = pipe(
  start(0), // start a new ObservableTask
  tap(probe), // read current value
  chain(() => T.of(100)), // here, it is like a traditional Task.chain
  tap(probe),
  map(increase), // here, it is like a traditional Task.map
  tap(probe),
  map(increase),
  end(), // before getting the result we need to release resources, wait for probes and get a Task
);
const result = await runTask();
expect(result).toBe(102);
